DRIVING OPERATION
F116 H223
FRONT DRIVING AXLE CONTROL
The front driving axle is “ON” in basic
position (the indicator lights up). It can be
disengaged with the corresponding
switch on the dashboard.
a - Front driving axle “ON”
b - Front driving axle “OFF”
When the tractor is stopped (the tractor
is braked, engine stopped, key of the
switching box off), the front driving axle is
“ON”.
DRIVING WITH THE FRONT DRIVING AXLE ENGAGED
Use the front driving axle in case the rear wheels slip to increase the traction
of the tractor.
On a road and hard surface driving with the front driving axle engaged is ac-
ceptable up to the maximum speed of 15 km/h (driving with the front axle en-
gaged causes increased wear of the front tyres).
Permanent engagement of the front driving axle is permissible if an agricultural ma-
chine or implement is attached to the front of the tractor. This condition is mentioned
in the operator’s manual of the corresponding machine.
The maximum allowable speed of these sets is 15 km/h.
