2.10 Steering

2.10.1 General information

"BELARUS-922.6" tractors are equipped with hydrostatic steering control (HSC), de-
signed for controlling the rotation of guide wheels and reduction of effort at the steering wheel
while the feed pump is running. When the engine is stopped, the HSC feed pump, driven by the
engine crankshaft, does not feed the hydraulic system of the HSC and it is automatically shifted
to a manual mode, which requires greater effort on the steering wheel to turn the tractor.

2.10.2 Steering wheel adjustments

The steering wheel has the following adjustments:
- according to the horizon tilt angle;
- according to the height, along the steering shaft axis.
To change height positioning of the steering wheel, do the following:
- unscrew chuck 2 (Figure 2.10.1) by 3-5 revolutions;
- set wheel 1 to a position comfortable for work;
- screw in chuck 2 with max. possible force of hand fingers.
The range of the steering wheel height adjustment is 100 mm, stepless.
To change the steering column tilt angle, do the following:
- pull handle 3.
- tilt the steering column to reach the position comfortable for work and releasing handle
3, swing the steering column smoothly in longitudinal direction until fixed firmly.
The steering column can be tilted and fixed in four positions from 25° to 40° with 5° inter-
val.
1 – steering wheel; 2 – chuck; 3 – handle to fix the tilt of the steering column.

provided, when moving the handle into the extreme rear position – min. fuel supply is provided
which corresponds to the minimum idle speed.
