Centering the Steerable Front Wheel
Before you begin play the front wheel must be centered, so your X-Series will track straight. Use the centering knob
(Figure 15) on the rear of the Remote Receiver to adjust the front wheel. do not attempt to turn the front
wheel by hand. The front wheel must be centered electronically by turning the black knob. The knob is very
sensitive. Rotate it slowly to adjust the front wheel right or left as needed. When the front wheel is centered, the
knob can be turned slightly right or left without the wheel moving. If the wheel is not centered, any turn of the knob
will cause the wheel to swivel.
Automatic Self-Centering Front Wheel
Remote Guidance System's built-in centering control will automatically center the front wheel every time you stop
transmitting a directional signal with the Remote Transmitter. The centering function will not work properly unless
you center the front wheel using the electronic centering knob (as described above).
During normal operation, a sensor in the Remote Guidance System detects course conditions and allows for small
terrain deviations, thus allowing your X-Series to follow a straight line of travel. If for any reason the front wheel
becomes jammed and cannot return to center, the self-centering feature will shut off after 6 seconds. To dislodge
the obstacle, turn the Function Switch to OFF and remove the obstruction. Turn the power back ON. The wheel
should now automatically align itself. If it does not, re-adjust using the centering knob as shown on this page.
