• The Gator™ XUV Crossover Series Utility Vehicle has a precision-engineered drivetrain system that fully utilizes engine power, optimizing acceleration, hauling, towing, and hill-climbing capabilities. Power is transmitted from the engine through a continuously variable clutch system to the transaxle.

• Key elements of the drive system include:

• VARIABLE-SPEED DRIVE

• The variable-speed drive consists of two clutches and a drive belt:

• Drive clutch is attached to the engine.

• Driven clutch is attached to the transaxle.

• The engine braking system utilizes a tight belt for operation, requiring an idler sleeve on the primary clutch for neutral. The secondary clutch is a build- on-shaft design that utilizes a cam to tune the acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle. The clutch stays engaged, providing deceleration until approximately 5 km/h (3 mph).

• The continuously variable transmission (CVT) air intake draws in cool air to reduce heat and the amount of water ingestion into the CVT system. The system reduces belt slippage and improve durability.

• A two-range transmission provides:

• Ability to maneuver in tight spaces and increased pulling torque in low range

• Faster speeds and reduced transport time in high range

• Standard full-clutch enclosure with high-speed fan provides longer belt and clutch life

• High-ratio clutches with three cam weights for maximum belt-clamp load in high torque conditions

• How the variable-speed drive works:

• As engine speed increases, the spring-loaded drive clutch is closed by weights being forced out by centrifugal force.

• As the drive clutch closes, the belt rides up to the largest diameter of the drive clutch and forces open the driven clutch.

• With the belt running in the smallest diameter of the driven clutch, the speed being transferred to the transaxle is increased.

• The driven clutch is designed to sense varying loads (inclines, mud, etc.) and constantly adjusts drive speed upward or downward so that engine rpm remains optimal.

• Operator interface features:

• Selectable 4WD system with a limited slip front differential and dash-mounted electronic rocker switch

• Provides exceptional traction in challenging conditions

• Near instantaneous torque to the front wheels once rocker switch is engaged

• Maintains turf-friendly operation in two-wheel drive (2WD) mode
