3 DESCRIPTION
3.1 Drive
The machine is four wheel drive. The power from
the engine to the driven wheels is transferred hy-
draulically. The four wheels are equipped with
separate hydraulic motors. The diesel motor drives
a hydraulic pump (3:P), which pumps oil through
the hydraulic motors (3:M) of the wheels.
The hydraulic motors are connected to the hydrau-
lic pump according to fig. 3.
This means that the front and rear wheels are
forced to rotate at the same speed, but the speed on
the right and left side can vary.
Front mounted implement driven by drive belts or
hydraulically, depending on model.
3.2 Steering
Keep all body parts away from the
machine's pivot point when the steering
wheel is turned. There is a risk of
serious crushing injury between the
machine's rear and front sections.
The machine has articulated steering, which is
power assisted. This means that the chassis is di-
vided into a front and rear section, which can be
turned in relation to each other.
The articulated steering means that the machine
has an extremely small turning circle and can be
easily tuned around trees and other obstacles.
3.3 Safety system
The machine is equipped with an electric safety
system. The safety system stops certain activities
that may be hazardous in the event of incorrect op-
eration. E.g. The engine cannot be started if the
clutch pedal/parking brake is not depressed.
The safety system's function must
always be checked before use.

3.4 Controls
3.4.1 Implement lifter (1:F1)
26 B 26 H 26 HS
The hydraulic implement lifter only works when
the engine is running.

However, it can be lowered to the floating position

when the engine is off.

The lever has the four following positions:
3.4.2 Check valve lowering (4:X)
The check valve regulates the speed when lower-
ing. The speed must be adjusted according to the
weight of the actual implement.
Increasing the lowering speed:
Undo the nut (4:Y) and turn the knob to the left.
Reducing the lowering speed:
Undo the nut (4:Y) and turn the knob to the right.
The check valve must be locked in the set position
with the nut.
3.4.3 Hydraulic control (1:L1)
This control is used to control certain functions de-
pending on the attached implement.
The control only works when the engine is running
and the implement's hydraulic hoses for the in-
tended function are connected to the hydraulic out-
put (1:L).
Never leave the machine with the imple-
ment in the transport position. Risk of
serious crushing injuries by the imple-
ment as it lowers quickly if the control
is unintentionally affected.
Floating position. Move the lever to its
front position, where it locks. The imple-
ment is now lowered to its floating posi-
tion. Also see "3.4.2".
In the floating position, the implement
always rests against the ground at the
same pressure and can follow the con-
tours of the ground.
Use the floating position when carrying
out work.
Lowering. The implement lowers re-
gardless of its weight. The lowering
speed can be set using the control (4:X).
The lowering force is determined by the
implement's weight and the hydraulic
down force that is applied when lower-
ing.
Locking in the transport position. The
lever has returned to the neutral position
after raising and lowering. The imple-
ment is locked in the transport position.
Raising. Move the lever to the rear posi-
tion until the implement is in the highest
position (transport position). Then re-
lease the lever to lock in the transport po-
sition.
