Steering control

Gentle turn
Change the stroke of the travel lever (1) or (2) to change
the travel direction while moving forward (or backward).
Return the lever of the desired direction slightly. The
machine turns in that direction slowly.
Pivot Turn
• Move the right side travel lever (1) forward, allowing
the machine to the left, pivoting on the left track.
• Move the left travel side lever (2) forward, allowing the
machine to turn to the right, pivoting o the right track.
Spot Turn
• Move the right side travel lever forward and move the
left side travel lever backward at the same time.
This allows a quick left turn (counter track rotation).
• Move the right side travel lever backward and move
the left side travel lever forward at the same time.
This allows a quick right turn (counter track rotation).
NEVER steer on a grade or unstable ground, which
causes turnover. It is very dangerous.
If the engine stall when changing directions while
the engine speed is low or the travel select switch
is set to high. Restart the engine, increase the
engine speed and set the travel select lever is set
to low. Avoid the engine stall to control the travel
levers stroke while travelling.
Never change the travel direction quickly on a
slope. Quick direction change may cause turnover
or slip.
If it is necessary to change the travel direction
quickly, move to a solid ground with a gentle slope
and change the direction.
