    Argo driving advise

    First,,My 23hp Vanguard may be worn out, with No power??? I have only tried turning in Low on grass. I did get it to do a zero turn to the right today, but when I try to go left, it seems like the brakes bog the motor. I've tried the bump turning method??? My only experience with 6x6 have been Max2 and Max4 with strong motors. Am I expecting too much??? Unit is a 2012 Frontier 650,,still has Argo tires and the tracks are not on. I'm going to take it to the swamp in a minute,,,I'll update in the morning. My wife has my F250 on stand by to come get me.

    You have to apply power to the Argo in turns. The Max releases one side before braking. On solid ground you may need to apply a lot of throttle to turn hard. Driving is a learned skill that gets smother with experience.

    Update,,I didn't get stuck. I just am used to more power than I'm getting from this one. Seems like the more I run it, the better it's getting.

    If one side is spinning you can slightly apply brake to that side to force other side to drive. That is how the transmission in the Argo works.
