The valve on the APT must be in the
working or open position (handle in line
with APT) for the steering system to be
operational.
Steering is controlled by the tractor remote
hydraulic system. The APT provides the
operator the ability to move the mower
conditioner into field position easily, allows right
angle turns in either direction, steering around
objects on both sides and straight line field
cutting on either side of the tractor.

moving tractor control lever (A) forward
steers the machine to the right and
moving the lever (A) backward steers the
mower conditioner left.
The control (A) is operated momentarily for
steering and must be returned to OFF or
NEUTRAL position as soon as the mower
conditioner reaches the desired path of travel.
