17.4 OPTIONS, 3-WHEEL DRIVE (3WD). Item 211.700.026
The standard drive of the Verti-Drain
®
is only on the two back wheels. Should it start to slip
due to a lack of grip or should you have to aerate with greater accuracy, you can use the
3WD option. A third hydraulic motor will be placed on the front wheel which will mean that it
will also be driven and the machine will, therefore, have more grip and a more effective
transmission in the field.
The kit consists of a hydraulic motor, a three-way valve for switching from two-wheel to
three-wheel drive and hydraulic hoses. See the parts page for mounting instructions.
Switching from 2-wheel drive to 3-wheel drive and the other way round may only occur when
the machine is standing still. First, therefore, bring the machine to a standstill, turn button A
to the required position and, next, continue driving. (See fig. 30.)
