Steering Direction Control
The steering direction of the machine is controlled by sideways operation of the right-hand
joystick (B); moving the lever to the right will steer the machine to the right and moving the lever
to the left will steer the machine left.
Steering is achieved by adjusting the speed or the turning direction of the tracks in relation to
each other; depending on the intensity of the turn one or other track will decelerate, stop or
even reverse causing the machine to change direction, the sharpness of the turn is relative to
how far the operation lever is moved.
Steering Bias
The steering bias feature allows a degree
of ‘steer’ to be pre-set for operating the
machine across slopes, adjustment is
made using the dial switch ‘E’; rotate the
dial either clockwise or anti-clockwise for
right or left bias respectively, the further it
is rotated the greater the bias. Although
steering will still need to be monitored
and operated as normal it will be to a
much lesser degree.
NOTE: When the machine is operating in ‘direction swapped mode’ (refer to previous page),
steering direction control will be swapped so the steering direction lever continues to operate in
the same left and right manner to match the selected drive direction, the same will also apply to
the steering bias feature.
Flail Head (Tool) Height Control
The tool height is controlled by forward and backwards operation of the right-hand joystick (B);
pushing the lever forwards will lower the tool and pulling the lever backwards will raise the tool.
