Determining Which Test to Use
Models with Free Hand™ Control: After engaging the traction control (left hand) and
auger control (right hand), Free Hand allows the operator to release the auger control, and
for the auger control to remain engaged until the traction control is released. Free Hand
models have the icon set shown in Figure 2 on the dashboard.
Models without Free Hand Control: On units without Free Hand, the auger and traction
controls operate independently, and the Free Hand icon set is not found on the dashboard.
