AUTO-STEER
Auto-Steer
Set-up and Operation.
When the Auto-Steer System has been initially Set-Up, and
the machine is ready to commence harvesting, it is important
before starting, that the Auto-Steer final set-up is carried out
by following the instructions below.
Fig.6-01
A starting strip of turf must be cut ‘manually steering’, this
creates the turf ‘edge’ for the Guide Shoe to follow.
•
Start the tractor and set the engine at 1800 RPM.
Engage 1st Gear, the tractor will move forward.
•
Push the Cutter Head Control Lever ‘forward’, to
lower the Cutter head.
Using manual steering, proceed to cut the starting strip. Fig.6-01
The starting strip must be cut straight, to ensure the
correct operation of the Auto-Steer.
Fig.6-02
When the starting strip has been cut :
•
Position the harvester parallel to the start strip, with
the Cutter Side Blade aligned to the ‘cut edge’ of
the turf.
•
Switch the Auto-Steer ‘ ON ’, with Rocker Switch ‘ A ’
on the Control Panel.
NOTE
If the Guide Shoe lowers on the ‘ un-cut ’ turf, when the Auto-
Steer is switched ‘ ON ’, switch the Auto-Steer ’ OFF ’. The re-
set cylinder will move the Guide Shoe ‘off ’ the un-cut turf,
then switch the Auto-Steer back ‘
ON ’.

Control Cable has run out of adjustment, re-set the cable

re-set the Auto-Steer in the following sequence
Cam Roller and Roller Arm Position.
