INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS 16 - STEERING SELECTOR UNIT q Before travelling on roads, make sure that the two-wheel steering mode (2WS) is selected; the LED A comes on to signal that the 2WS has been selected. IMPORTANT q Every time the engine is started the two-wheel steering mode (2WS) is automatically selected, even if when the machine was stopped the selected mode was the four-wheel round or crab steering. If the acoustic alarm sounds after the engine has been started, it means that the rear wheels are not aligned or that the machine in 4WS mode has been stopped with steered wheels; align the wheels to stop the acoustic signal.
The wheels can be aligned by turning the steering wheel until all the wheels are aligned (LED 5 on). The coming on of the LED 6 and the interruption of the acoustic alarm indicate that the rear wheels are aligned. This control consists of microswitches in pairs and is used to select the steering mode that is most suitable to the conditions of the ground and to the type of application. The selection is carried out by pressing a pair of microswitches at the same time, after which the corresponding LED comes on. The selected steering mode is activated only after the front and rear wheels have been aligned (automatic wheel alignment, warning lights 5 and 6 on).
