Turning the steering wheel requires great effort! Take this into account
especially when towing the machine!

If you notice from the driving characteristics of the machine that the wheels of both axles
are not running in exactly the correct track:
☞
Drive at low speed, turning the steering wheel slowly to the left and right to the limit, and
try to keep on turning the steering wheel briefly in both final positions
☞
Slowly turn back the steering wheel to straight-ahead position
☞
Contact your dealer if this does not synchronize the wheels
