The power steering system in this
tractor is a load reaction, full hy-
draulic type.
The full hydraulic system means
that power necessary for power
steering is transferred by hydrau-
lic fluid only and therefore me-
chanical devices, such as racks
and pinions, are not installed to
the tractor. Therefore, the angle
of the KIOTI emblem on the cen-
ter of the steering wheel may dif-
fer occasionally, which is normal.
The load reaction type means
that the reaction force or impact
applied to the front axle is trans-
ferred to the steering wheel.
Therefore, the steering wheel
can be returned to its straight-
forward position from the turning
position.
NOTE
When driving on a road with an
implement attached to the rear
of the tractor, the contact of the
front wheels becomes poor,
resulting in poor steerability. In
this case, attach a proper front
weight and drive at a low speed.
If a malfunction occurs while
driving on a road, stop the trac-
tor in a safe place and service
it. If it is not possible to move
the tractor, turn on the hazard
lights and set a warning triangle
behind the tractor. Otherwise, a
rear end accident may occur.
The center of gravity of the trac-
tor is higher compared to other
common vehicles, so the pos-
sibility of the roll-over accident
is very high. Be extra careful
when driving on a lateral slope,
bumpy road, road with puddles,
and narrow road. Make sure to
set the ROPS in its original po-
sition (straight up position) and
fasten the seat belt.
WARNING
2. If you operate the steering wheel,
with the tractor halted, using the
implement equipped in front of the
loader and the like, the steering
wheel operation can be getting a
little heavy. Operate the steering
wheel moving the tractor in this
case.
3. When a loader is mounted, adjust
the air pressure of the front wheel
to its maximum specification and
mount weight or implement on the
3 point hitch of the tractor, and re-
move the front weight to make the
front and rear balance more stable
for safe working.
4. When turning the steering wheel
to one side, the operating sound
of the safety valve (relief valve)
is heard. Do not operate the trac-
tor keep the valve sound is heard
continually (OK for a short period
of time). The temperature of the
hydraulic fluid may rise, causing
malfunction.
