OPERATION MANUAL

This function is used to adjust extended track during Machine travel.
Use potentiometer (2) to adjust travel speed, and use travel controls (1) to adjust its direction.
Press pushbuttons (5) and (6) on travel controls (1) to control the Machine in CRAB mode, and at the same you may turn the Machine.
Shift the travel controls (1) to opposite position via (0) and then return to (0) position within the interval of 1 second to stop the Ma-
chine – the engine will continue to run.
By deflecting the travel controllers (1) from the position (0), the machine drives off.

Note
In the event that the control lamp on the combined instrument (26) is flashing, hold the switch and turn the steering wheel (to the left/
right) until the control lamp goes out.
If the Machine is equipped with cutter and final compactor, then pushbuttons (5) and (6) on travel control (1) on the same side where
it has been mounted, are used to control it. Then pushbuttons (5) and (6) on the second travel control (1)) are used to control the Ma-
chine in CRAB mode.
Take special care when Machine travels in CRAB mode near constructed facilities so to avoid their dam-
age due to any collision (hitting)!
