OVERVIEW

BIGFOOT = BIG FUNWhen the MULE 610 4x4 (KAF400A) and MULE 600 (KAF400B) joined Kawasaki’s line of utility vehicles, the “little” MULEs very capably met market needs for lightweight, compact utility vehicles capable of filling a variety of roles. Designed to be compact, comfortable, and classy, they borrowed some of the best technology from Kawasaki’s ATVs and larger MULEs, and wrapped it in elegant, high-volume bodywork.

Joining their ranks in 2010 is a third model. Nicknamed the “Bigfoot” MULE, the MULE 610 4x4 XC features enhanced off-road capability – care of larger, 26” tyres and 12” wheels – complemented by a sporty design and graphics. Combined with the dependable performance of the KAF400A, this latest compact utility vehicle opens door to greater potential for leisure activities.

OVERVIEW

• Increased Rough-road Performance – Larger wheelsand tyres better enable the “Bigfoot” MULE to overcomeobstacles and traverse rough terrain, such as rock sections.

• Wider Track – The larger wheels and tyres also result in awider track, enhancing ride stability.

• Higher Ground Clearance – As another by-product ofthe larger wheels and tyres, ground clearance alsoincreased, further contributing to off-road potential.

• Increased Ride Comfort – A new seat covered with arevised material offers greater comfort and holdingperformance.

• Sportier Looks – The larger tyres, a repositioned frontbumper and an exclusive sporty graphics package give theMULE 610 4x4 XC the looks to match its wider range ofperformance.

The MULE 610 4x4 XC offers the following improvements over the KAF400A:

KEY FEATURES

INCREASED OFF-ROAD PERFORMANCE

* 26” Maxxis Bighorn II radial tyres contribute to superior off-roadhandling. (KAF400A uses 24” bias tyres.) The massive tyres also addto the rugged, sporty image. (Photo 1)

* Newly designed wheels feature larger rims, increased from 10” to 12”.

* Wider track offered by the larger tyres contributes to riding stability.

R: 999 mm 1,050 mm (51 mm wider)

While the track is larger, the body size remains unchanged. The “Bigfoot” MULE can still be transported in the back of a pick-up truck. (Illustration A)

* Larger mud flaps offer increased mud protection.

Big Feet

With its larger wheels and tyres, the “Bigfoot” MULE 610 4x4 XC is better able to ride over obstacles, increasing its potential for leisure activities.

KEY FEATURES

* Independent MacPherson strut-type front suspension allows each wheelto track over uneven ground for maximum traction with light steeringeffort. Minimal wheel camber change throughout the suspension strokecontributes to stable handling.

* Longer-length suspension front and back (F: +28 mm; R: +40 mm) addsto the off-road performance.

Suspension

* Revised brake pedal lever ratio, stronger mount for the brake mastercylinder and new brake shoes adopted to suit the larger wheels andtyres.

* Front and rear brake drum seals are triple-lipped for water and mudresistance.

Brakes

* Increased ground clearance (38 mm greater than KAF400A) due to thelarger wheels and tyres make it easier to clear obstacles. (Photo 2)

* Skid plates for the front differential, engine and rear differential are fittedas standard equipment. Centre skid plate greatly reduces the chance ofgetting stuck when driving over obstacles.

KEY FEATURES

HIGHLY RELIABLE ENGINE PERFORMANCE

* Powering the MULE 610 4x4 XC is a 401cm3, 4-stroke, OHV, air-cooledSingle. Compact, lightweight and durable, the engine is extremelyreliable.

* Overhead valves designed for efficient running and good fuel economyare durable and operate quietly.

* Highly efficient carburettor delivers excellent fuel economy.

* Higher ground clearance results in a higher muffler location forincreased flood resistance. Relocating the exhaust opening to thebottom of the muffler body increases drainage performance.

* The engine’s air supply enters the air cleaner box via a snorkel intakerouted through the tubing of the overhead frame, ensuring the engine isprovided with a steady supply of clean air, even in dusty operatingconditions.

* Crankcase breathers fitted to route blow-by back to the intake pipe forcleaner exhaust emissions.

Engine

* Like the KAF400A, the MULE 610 4x4 XC features selectable2WD/4WD. Belt-driven automatic transmission with a Hi-Lo dual-rangetransfer case offers excellent off-road riding capability. Two forwardspeeds to choose from lend flexibility when hill-climbing with a heavyload.

* Limited-slip front differential also contributes to good handling overrough terrain, providing great traction with low steering effort.

* Rear differential lock allows rear wheels to be locked for maximumtraction in mud or snow. Ground disturbance is minimised whenunlocked. Oil seal improves water/mud resistance.

* Torque converter air cleaner with easily replaceable filter elementreduces torque converter wear by cooling it with filtered air taken inthrough the overhead frame (as per the engine intake).

KEY FEATURES

COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE

* Front bonnet opens to reveal a spacious 48 litre sealed storage area.

* Passenger-side glove box provides additional sealed storage.

* Right and left cup holders located on either side of the bonnet.

* Tough cargo bed features a steel diamond-plate bottom and a loadcapacity of 181 kg (400 lb). (Photo 3)

* Special texture black paint used in the cargo bed is highly stain- andscratch-resistant, contributing to both looks and durability.

* Tailgate has a simple release system (same as that of the Teryx) foreasy opening and closing.

Storage and Carrying Capacity* New seat material has superb elasticity, offering increased comfort and

holding performance. The material is also resistant to cold, allowing it tomaintain its suppleness when temperatures drop and reducing thechance of tearing/ripping when exposed to cold temperatures. (Photo 4)

* Shift lever, 2WD/4WD selector and differential lock lever are all locatedwithin easy reach on the automotive-style dashboard.

* Top-release seat belt sockets are user-friendly.

* Sturdy passenger-side grab rail mounted on the cab frame providesadditional passenger security in rough off-road conditions.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

* Die-cast aluminium belt converter has high silicon content for compactsize and light weight, while also offering excellent toughness anddurability.

* By changing the shim thickness of the adjuster bolt located on theoutside of the driven belt converter, the space between the fixed andnon-fixed sheaves can be changed to adjust the belt deflection.

* For long wear and minimal maintenance, a tough, ATV-type double-cogbelt is used.

* Belt converter case is sealed to prevent entry of dust and water.

* Belt converter air cleaner cover uses a clip-type clamping method(previously screw-type) to further facilitate maintenance.

* Revised sealing method for the upper surface of the belt converter aircleaner filter element improves sealing performance.

* Maintenance-free sealed bearing unit used between front and rear driveshafts.

Transmission

* Oil temperature warning lamp linked to a sensor on the crankcase helpsprevent overheating.
