Recently delivered BX2380. Question. Which is four wheel position. I only see in the manual they mention about front wheel ? Some of their symbols could be better. Love the machine!!!!:confused:

The rear wheels are always engaged. You have the option of engaging the front wheels (for better traction) or not (better steering, longer tire life). Engaging the front wheels is 4WD.

The icon showing a break between the front and rear axles is 2wd. (B in this image). The icon showing front and rear axles connected is 4wd (A in this image).

No, the diff lock only locks the rear differential. The front differential is always open.

There are times when a locking front diff would be handy, but given that they are the steering wheels, Kubota probably feared damage from operators trying to use it while turning.
