AUTO-STEER
Tracking Adjustment.
The recommended method of setting the tracking is :
•
Position the harvester ‘ready to cut’.
•
With the Auto-Steer switched ‘ OFF ,’ cut a strip of turf,
for a minimum distance of 20 feet, it must be cut
straight.
•
Stop the harvester.
The harvester will be parallel to the cut edge, the
steering wheels ‘straight ahead’, and the cutter head down.
•
Switch the Auto-Steer ‘ ON ’, the Guide Shoe will drop.
