Fast Steer - New Holland T7030 Operator's Manual

FAST STEER (where fitted)
The optional Fast Steer system is designed to
provide quick steering response when required i.e.
when operating with a front loader.
From the straight ahead position, Fast Steer will
provide full right or left hand steering lock with less
than a 10° movement of the steering wheel.
IMPORTANT: Before travelling on the public
highway Fast Steer must be de- -activated and
normal steering re- -instated. To check normal
steering operation, turn the wheel fully from lock to
lock before starting your journey.
NOTE: Fast Steer will not operate if the tractor speed
is above 10 K/mh (6.2 MPH).
To activate the Fast Steer function, depress the
isolator switch (1). A green warning light on the
instrument panel (3) will illuminate to confirm system
activation.
To operate Fast Steer, depress and hold the centre
ring (4) on the steering wheel, to disengage, release
the ring. With the centre ring depressed, a yellow
indicator light (2) will illuminate on the instrument
panel. It will extinguish when the centre ring is
released.
NOTE: If the isolator switch (1) is left in the 'ON'
position at engine key- -off, then Fast Steer will be
de- -activated at key- -on. The isolator switch warning
light will not illuminate and the yellow indicator light
(2) will flash if the centre ring is depressed. To
re- -activate Fast Steer turn the isolator switch 'OFF'
and then 'ON'.
Fast Steer can only be operated if the following three
conditions are met.
1. The isolator switch is in the ON position and the
green warning light is illuminated.
2. The speed of the tractor is below 10 K/mh
(6.2 MPH).
3. The transmission oil temperature is above 5° C.
NOTE: Attempting to use the Fast Steer function
without meeting all the above conditions, will cause
the yellow indicator light (2) to flash.
