WARNING : PREVENT ACCIDENTS - Do not engage the
differential lock at high speed. The turning circle will increase with
the differential lock engaged.

engaged whilst the mower is travelling slowly. Engage the
differential lock to prevent excessive wheel spin when the drive wheels
lose traction. Engine power demand increases when the differential lock
is engaged. Prevent excessive power requirements by operating with
differential lock at SLOW speed.
Engaging differential lock: Depress the differential lock pedal.
Disengaging differential lock: Release the differential lock pedal.
