CAUTION
The differential may develop a
problem if the rear wheels are
allowed to spin repeatedly without
using the inter-differential lock.
To engage the inter-differential lock,
stop the vehicle and then press the
inter-differential lock switch on the
"ON" side.
With the inter-differential lock
engaged, the turning radius of the
vehicle increases.
