TRAVEL CONTROL
Travel control is done by using the levers or the
pedals. To travel in a straight line, both levers have to
be simultaneously operated, either forward or
backward. Change of direction is done either by
operating a single lever, or by operating
simultaneously one lever forward and the other
backward, so that the machine pivots on the spot.
See Moving the machine in the Operating
Instructions section.
IMPORTANT: In the normal travel position, the
operator's compartment is above the idler wheels
and the travel reduction gears are to the rear of the
upperstructure. If the upperstructure is turned 180
degrees in relation to the undercarriage, to move the
machine forward, the levers have to be pulled
towards yourself (i.e. in reverse) and vice-versa.
NOTE: The forward or reverse travel speed depends
on whether the high speed travel switch is used or
not. See High speed travel switch.
NOTE: In the normal travel position, the dozer blade
(if equipped) is in front of the machine.
NOTE: The movements of the machine are shown in
the Control functions decal. See Decals.
