Operating with differential locks
NOTE! The differential lock must never be engaged when one
of the wheels is spinning.
IMPORTANT! Do not use drive and differential locks on more
wheels than what is required by the situation. Incorrect use
can cause unnecessary tyre wear, increased fuel
consumption and impair the manoeuvrability.
When operating with anti-slip devices (snow chains), the
differential locks and the 6-wheel drive should not be engaged.
Operation (without differential locks)
Q During operation four wheels on the machine are driving and
there is no drive to the rear bogie axle.
Q All differential locks are disengaged.
Q No lamps on the instrument panel are alight.
ATC (Automatic Traction Control)
(optional equipment)
The longitudinal differential lock and 6-wheel drive on the machine
are controlled automatically. The differential lock and 6-wheel drive
are controlled independent of each other.
The machine has two possible drive combinations:
Q Automatic mode.
Q All differential locks and 6-wheel drive are engaged with the
foot control.
Automatic mode
Used for all types of operating conditions.
The machine senses wheel speed and steering angle, and the
longitudinal differential lock and 6-wheel drive are engaged
automatically,independent of each other.
No control lights for differential locks or 6-wheel drive are lit on the
instrument panel at engagement or disengagement.
All differential locks and 6-wheel drive
Is used when operating where maximum drive force is required.
Control lights for all differential locks and 6-wheel drive are lit on
the instrument panel.
NOTE! The machine's steering ability is reduced.
WARNING!
We warn especially against the method of trying to traverse
slippery ground by force with chains on one drive side only.
This oblique traction power causes extreme wear to the
power transmission and you may also lose control of the
machine and cause an accident with consequent personal
injuries.
