ATTACHMENTS AND OPTIONS
Since the operation feeling is different from the steering wheel, be careful when operating joystick steering.
•
When the joystick steering can not be activated, if the directional lever and joystick directional selector
switch are not in NEUTRAL position (N).
Temporarily return the directional lever and the joystick directional selector switch to NEUTRAL position (N).
•
When the electrical circuits of joystick steering system and transmission control system have trouble, the
centralized warning lamp (red) lights up to inform the operator about the trouble.
Since both steering and transmission are set in NEUTRAL position (N), turn the joystick ON/OFF switch to
OFF position, then operate the machine by using the steering wheel and the directional lever.
METHOD FOR HANDLING JOYSTICK STEERING SYSTEM
•
Avoid joystick steering operation during high-speed travel or on a steep slope.
•
When turning the machine, if you operate the steering wheel, the machine stops articulation at the
position where you stop turning the steering wheel. However, if you tilt the joystick steering lever
and hold it at the position, the machine articulates to the end, so be careful.
•
Since the operation feeling is different from the steering wheel, be careful when operating the joy-
stick steering.
•
When moving the directional lever of the steering wheel to F or R position while the joystick
ON/OFF switch is in ON position, the machine travels forward or in reverse in according with the
directional lever regardless of the position of directional selector switch on the joystick steering
lever.
Be careful to operate because the directional lever operation of the steering wheel is prior.
•
In this case, the centralized warning lamp lights up and alarm buzzer sounds.
•
Stop the machine and set the directional lever and the directional selector switch on the joy-
stick steering lever to N position.
Perform checks and adjustment before starting the engine. For details, see "CHECKS AND ADJUSTMENT BE-
FORE STARTING ENGINE".
1.
Before starting the engine, check the steering performance
of the joystick steering lever, check that the directional lev-
er is in NEUTRAL position (N) and the surrounding area is
safe.
REMARK
If the machine is under the following condition when start-
ing the engine, an alarm may be issued.
•
When the directional selector switch on the joystick
steering lever is in F or R, the centralized warning
lamp lights up, and alarm buzzer sounds.
The engine does not start under this condition. Set di-
rectional selector switch to NEUTRAL position (N).
•
When the joystick steering lever is not in the neutral
position, the alarm buzzer sounds.
The engine does not start under this condition. Set the
joystick steering lever to NEUTRAL position.
