1.
Move ground speed lever (GSL) (A) out of PARK and slowly
move the GSL forwards. Ensure wheels are rotating in the

drive wheels. Ensure the wheels rotate at different speeds
with the slower rotating wheel on the same side of
machine that the steering wheel is turned toward.
3.
Turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction and
ensure the slower rotating wheel is on the same side of the
machine that the steering wheel is turned toward.
4.
Move the GSL backwards into reverse. Ensure the wheels
are rotating in the reverse direction and at the same speed.
