(2) Key for activation of U-turn steer/all-wheel steer and for synchronizing of
articulation
U-turn steer/all-wheel steer
(only in operating mode "Field").
The driving speed must be over 0.5 km/h!
U-turn steer
For this purpose, shortly tip on key ( 2 ).
The articulated joint bends matching the front wheels and follows all the steering
movements of the front axle. The rear wheels steer counteractive to the steering
wheel angle.
Using this steering variant, you achieve the smallest turning clearance circle diameter.
As the designation suggests, this is the optimum steering variant for making a U-turn
with the machine ( See Page 205 ).
All-wheel steer
For this purpose, press the key ( 2 ) for at least 2 seconds. When you activate this
steering variant, the articulation joint automatically goes into 0° position and remains in
this position. The rear wheels steer simultaneously with the front wheels, but in oppo-
site direction. All-wheel steer largely corresponds to U-turn. But the articulation does
not co-steer ( See Page 205 ).
Synchronise articulation steering
In the operating mode "Road", the key has the additional function "Synchronizing artic-
ulation steering" ( See Page 197 ).
