“ BOGIE / TANDEM / TRIDEM with forced steering axles are fitted with hydraulic cylinders coupled between the tractor and semi-trailer, which
are actuated depending on the curvature radius described by the tractor. Pressurised oil from this cylinder actuates the steerable axle’s cylinder,
which acts in proportion to the curvature movement made by the tractor.
This system improves the vehicle’s manoeuvrability and ensures stability and safety. Stresses transmitted to the wheels and chassis are
reduced, and tyre dragging is prevented, increasing driving comfort and efficiency. “

“ BOGIE / TANDEM / TRIDEM with self-steering axles considerably reduce tyre wear, improve the vehicle’s manoeuvrability and significantly
reduces passive reactions in the wheels and chassis.
- The self-steering axle may be left unlocked for when moving at up to 15 km/h. It must always be locked above this speed.”
Note: If you need to initiate a reversing manoeuvre, first make sure you align the steering axle straight, then lock it. If you want to
remain reversing the vehicle, the steering axle must always be locked.
