FRONT DRIVING AXLE CONTROL
The front driving axle in the basic posi-
tion is engaged. (The signal light is ON).
To disengage it, make use of the switch
on the dashboard.
a - Front driving axle disengaged
b - Front driving axle engaged
The front driving axle in the tractor put
out of operation (tractor braked and the
engine switched OFF), is engaged.
DRIVE WITH THE FRONT DRIVING
AXLE ENGAGED
The front driving axle should be
used for increasing the tractor
towing power in case the rear
wheels slip.
On the road and hard ground, the
drive with the front driving axle
engaged results in a more inten-
sive wear of the front wheel tires.
Admissible is the permanent engage-
ment of the front driving axle when an
agricultural implement or machine car-
ried at the tractor front is attached. That
condition is specified in the respective
machine or implement operating instruc-
tions.
The maximum admissible speed of
those sets is 15 km/h.
PROVISION OF THE ROOM FOR THE
FRONT DRIVING AXLE PROPELLER
SHAFT
When mounting implements or
connecting machines, ensure
enough room –at least 10-mm -
around the front driving axle pro-
peller shaft along its whole length
under all swings of the axle.
If not observed this principle,
both tractor and the suspended
equipment can be damaged.!
