2DESCRIPTION

2.1Drive

The machine has 4-wheel drive. The power from the engine to the drive wheels is transferred hy- draulically. The engine drives an oil pump, which pumps oil through the rear and front axle drives. The front axle and rear axle are connected in se- ries, which means that the front wheels and rear wheels are forced to rotate at the same speed.

To make turning easier, both axles are equipped with differential.

Front-mounted implements are powered via drive belts.

2.2Steering

The machine is articulated. This means that the chassis is divided into a front and a rear section, which can be turned in relation to each other.

The articulated steering means that the machine can turn around trees and other obstacles with an extremely small turning radius.

2.3Safety system

The machine is equipped with an electrical safety system. The safety system interrupts certain activ- ities that can entail a danger of incorrect manoeu- vres. For example, the engine cannot be started if the clutch-parking brake pedal is depressed.

The operation of the safety system must always be checked every time before use.

2.4 Controls

2.4.1Implement lifter, mechanical (3:C) (Pro16)

To switch between working position and transport position:

1.Depress the pedal fully.

2.Release the pedal slowly.

2.4.2Implement lifter, hydraulic (5:M) (Pro20, Pro25, Pro Svan)

The hydraulic implement lifter only works when the engine is running and the clutch pedal and parking brake pedal are not depressed. The imple- ment lifter is controlled using the lever (5:M).

The lever has the following four positions: Floating position. Move the lever to its front position, where it locks. The imple- ment is now lowered to its floating posi- tion.

In the floating position, the implement always rests against the ground at the
