4 DESCRIPTION
4.1 DRIVE
The machine has front-wheel drive.
Front-mounted implements are powered via drive
belts.
4.2 STEERING
The machine has rear-wheel steering. The rear-
wheel steering means that the machine can easily
turn around trees and other obstacles. Steering is
controlled via a wire or wire-chain.
4.3 SAFETY SYSTEM
The machine is equipped with an electrical safety
system. The safety system interrupts certain
activities that can entail a danger of incorrect
manoeuvres.
For example, the engine can only be started if the
clutch-parking brake pedal is depressed.
The operation of the safety system must
always be checked every time before
use.
