About steering and auto-pilot axles
Every auto-pilot can be used in a steering mode. To do this, simply place the cylinder on the
side of the jib in the space provided for this purpose. The fixing axis of tractor cylinder-clevis
is used to lock the cylinders. The pressure in the circuit must be removed (check the
manometers). To lock the steering axle, a pipe marked in yellow-green colour is placed in
the nose of the pipe holder.

In the auto-pilot (or forced) mode, it is forbidden to use the flexible
locking of the steering axle because it may cause strong damage to the
hydraulic system. So it is highly recommended that in auto-pilot mode,
you don´t connect this flexible hose (marked by a striped yellow and
green mark) to the tractor to avoid any risk of error. Before to steer ensure that
nothing is blocking the wheels.
The axle’s hydraulic circuit should be totally free of air.
Do not exceed recommended pressures during the circuit pressurizing process because the
membranes of nitrogen balls may be damaged and no longer fulfill their function.
Regarding the tracking axles, a flexible pipe marked in yellow-green colour is placed in
the nose of flexible pipes holder.
. On the road with tracking, it is recommended to block the axles in
order to avoid any accident linked to an offset of the trailer, particularly
when your vehicle is charging.
