Introduction
Through the Tough Stuff with Selectable
4WD
When the going gets tough, the going requires 4-wheel drive.
So it's great to know that the ultimate job site companion, the
Mule™ 610 4x4 offers an extra boost of functionality due
to its selectable four-wheel drive. It includes all the great,
easy-to-use features of the Mule 600, so the 610 4x4 represents
a great value it is a truly versatile and durable
utility vehicle. And because it easily fits into the bed of a
full-sized pickup truck, the Mule 610 4x4 is easy to transport
to remote job sites.
The Mule 610 4x4 starts off on the right foot with its dependable
single-cylinder four-stroke engine and continuously variable
transmission (CVT). The large-diameter steel tube frame is mated
to an independent front suspension and a swing-axle rear suspension.
True to its practical nature, there is plenty of user-friendly
hardware, including automotive-type controls, a gear selector
within easy reach on the dashboard, two large cup holders and
a passenger-side glove box and grab handle. More storage space
is located beneath the hinged front hood.
The Mule 610 4x4's durable air-cooled, single-cylinder 401cc
four-stroke engine maintains an ideal operating temperature with
the help of an efficient cooling fan. An enrichening system that
partially opens the throttle during ignition makes for easy engine
starts. It can be started in forward or reverse gear, provided
the brake is applied. It also utilizes rear wheel mud flaps to
minimize mud and debris clogging the engine area.
Owners will surely appreciate the knowledge that the Mule 610
4x4 comes equipped with an efficient and durable CVT along with
a long-lasting drive belt coupled with a dependable, low-maintenance
shaft drive to best deliver the engine's power and get it out
of slippery situations. Perhaps the most useful aspect of the
Mule 610 4x4 is the selectable four-wheel drive system that makes
this vehicle virtually unstoppable thanks to the high- and low-range
forward and reverse gears. A lockable dual-mode rear differential
and a limited-slip front differential expand its traction abilities
in adverse terrain.
The Mule 610 4x4 rides on a MacPherson strut front suspension,
while rear suspension duties are handled by a unit swing-axle.
Triple-sealed hydraulic drum brakes at all four wheels provide
ample stopping power, and large 24-inch tires provide improved
off-road handling. A plastic front differential/axle guard and
steel rear differential guard are standard, and help protect
important powertrain components.
Bright 35-watt headlights mean the job can start before sunrise
or continue after sunset. Increasing its work versatility is
the 400-pound-capacity tilting cargo bed that features secure,
easy to fasten tailgate latches. The Mule 610 4x4 can tow up
to 1,100 pounds with an optional Kawasaki trailer hitch installed.
Popular accessories include an enclosed cab, snow plow, winch
and soft or hard tops. These and many other Authentic Kawasaki
Accessories are available through Arizona Kawasaki.
