During normal use of the vehicle, frequently changing
the steering modes, it is possible that the wheels are
no longer perfectly aligned with each other.
To perform a proper wheel alignment, perform the
following steps:
1. Stop the vehicle on a level ground.
2. Select the B or C steering mode
3. Turn the steering wheel until the rear wheels are
aligned to the machine.
4. Select the A steering mode
5. Turn the steering wheel until the front wheels are
aligned to the machine.
6. Try to move slowly for a few meters to verify that
the vehicle travels properly in a straight line.
If at the end of the alignment the machine still
does not proceed in a straight line, repeat the
wheels alignment.
7.1.9 - Driver's seat reversal
Figure: 151113-1
It is possible to rotate the operator's seat to allow
better maneuverability and visibility operating with
the applications placed on the back of the machine.
To correctly reverse the driver's seat, it is necessary to:
• Stop the machine (possibly on a level ground).
• Press the parking brake switch.
• Place the gear lever to neutral ("N" position).
• Fully open the door (if available as an option).
WARNING! Make sure that there are no obstacles
to the rotation of the seat on the bottom of the cab
(rags, gloves, dirt, etc ...), the seat may become
jammed or the sensors may not work properly.
• Press the driver's seat reversal pedal, placed
under the operator's seat.
• Keeping the pedal pressed, manually rotate the
driving seat with the help of the handles in the
cab.
• Turn the driver's seat to the stroke end and
release the pedal.
NOTE! After turning the driver's seat, the power
steering indicator light will turn on and an
intermittent buzzer will operate.
• Make sure the driver's seat is properly secured.
• Lower the power steering reversal lever to make
the steering wheel movements consistent with
the wheels movement. The light and intermittent
acoustic signal will be switched off.
DANGER
It is strictly forbidden to work with the
driving seat partially rotated.
With the driver's seat turned towards the drum,
the visibility of the field of action is very low, so
for the operations it is required to use a person
on the ground to give indications.
WARNING
With driver's seat reversed,also the movement
selection lever function will reverse to keep the
direction of travel (forward/reverse) consistent
with the operator's position.
DANGER
Avoid long travels operating with
reversed driver's seat.
It is not allowed to travel for long distances with
the driver's seat reversed. If this should be
necessary (e.g. driving uphill) the presence of a
person on the ground to give indications, is
required
It is not allowed to drive the vehicle on the road
with the driver's seat reversed.
Driver's seat restoring
To restore the driver's seat in the transport position,
carry out the following operations:
• Stop the machine (possibly on a level ground).
• Press the parking brake switch.
• Place the gear lever to neutral ("N" position).
• Fully open the door (if available as an option).
WARNING! Make sure that there are no obstacles
to the rotation of the seat on the bottom of the cab
(rags, gloves, dirt, etc ...), the seat may become
jammed or the sensors may not work properly.
