Liquid Cooled, V-Twin Engine
-Four-stroke, 617cc V-Twin
industrial engine produces exceptional
torque at low engine speeds
-Modern four-stroke design with overhead
valves for efficient running and good
fuel economy
-Large capacity radiator and fan maintain
consistent engine temperatures, even
in hot climates
- Rubber engine mounts minimize vibration,
noise and wear to maximize operation
comfort and diminish fatigue
Digital Fuel Injection
-Computer controlled
fuel injection system automatically
compensates for atmospheric pressure,
air and engine temperature, for easy,
prompt engine starting under a variety
of conditions
-Automatic fast idle speed control eliminates
the need for a choke, allowing the operator
to drive off immediately after a cold
engine start
-Throttle bodies feature sub-throttle
valves for optimum performance and drivability.
The sub throttles are located behind
the main throttle valves and controlled
by the ECU for smooth throttle response
-Automatic digital ignition system helps
ensure smooth efficient operation
-Maximum engine speed is controlled
by the ECU, eliminating the need for
a mechanical governor
-Offers easy engine operation and reduced
maintenance requirements
Environmentally Friendly Emissions
-DFI precision reduces
fuel consumption and cuts exhaust emissions
-Positive crankcase ventilation system
sends blow-by gasses to the intake tract
to be burned in the engine
-Muffler features a U.S. Forest Service-approved
spark arrestor
Kawasaki Automatic Power-Drive
System (KAPS)
-Fully automatic continuously
variable transmission (CVT) features
forward high and low and reverse, and
helps keep the engine in the right operating
rpm for a variety of vehicle speeds,
loads, or terrain
-The CVT has a wide spread of drive
ratios for quick acceleration and ample
pulling power
-Tuned to accommodate higher loads
-Large drive and driven torque converters
maximize engagement area of the thick
and strong drive belt for improved heat
dissipation and add durability
-High-flow cover helps cool the CVT
while providing superb splash protection
and water proofing
-Sheaves with high silicon type material
for increased durability
-An open sided drive pulley cools better
for longer belt life
-Offers adjustable belt deflection
Cab Frame Air Intake
-Draws engine air and
converter cooling air from the top of
the cab frame where there’s less
dust, so the air filter stays cleaner
longer
Torque Converter Air Filter
-Efficient intake cooling
fan draws plenty of air into the CVT
-Special air cleaner with easily replaceable
filter element cuts torque converter
wear by cooling it with filtered air
New Electric Power Steering
(EPS)
-The EPS system reduces
steering effort, especially at low speeds
when turning effort is greatest
-Input from a vehicle speed and torque
sensors determine the amount of steering
assistance required from the system’s
electric motor
-To keep from possibly draining the
battery, the EPS only operates when
the engine is running
-When engine is stopped, more force
is needed to turn the steering wheel
even if the ignition is switched on
4-Wheel Drive with 2-Speed
Transfer Case
-Selectable four-wheel
drive gives the operator traction options
-Shift to four-wheel drive and low range
for maximum traction in adverse conditions
or select two-wheel drive and high range
to cut gear wear and increase fuel economy
Dual Mode Differential
-Dual-mode rear differential
can be “locked” for extra
pulling power and maximum traction or
unlocked when traveling across delicate
terrain
Independent Strut-Type Front
Suspension
-MacPherson strut long-travel
front suspension provide a comfortable
ride and excellent load-carrying capability
