  • Page 25: Driving

    Driving Driving 2.13 Driving Electronic control relieves the driver and lightens the load on the environment by auto- motive driving. Automotive driving means that the driving speed is preselected by the pressure on the gas pedal. The electronics controls the hydrostatic drive and the diesel engine so that the preselected speed is always driven at the lowest possible engine rotational speed, independent on the fact whether you are driving uphill or downhill.
  • Page 26 Driving Driving Hydrostatic drives are deemed very safe. The following measure additionally increases this safety, if there should be any operating faults of the drive. If, when releasing the driving pedal, the machine should neither reduce driving speed nor stand still, then a safety circuit is activated by engaging the parking brake (1). This safety circuit bypasses the standard control behaviour of the hydraulic system and opens a safety valve that quickly shuts off the traction drive.
  • Page 27 Driving Driving If it is not possible to move the vehicle, then the cause for this is shown on the R- Touch: Please release parking brake. Please release brake pedal. Error of the drive pedal sensors! Brake-air of pressure brake reservoir too low! Release pressure parking brake too low! Supply pressure in hydrostatic drive is very low Call customer service...
