TRAVEL MODES
The following travel modes are available for selection for this machine.
•
Automatic mode
The operations of the joystick and the accelerator pedal are linked with the engine revolutions
and the hydraulic pump; thereby automatically controlling the oil pressure and the amount of
discharge, stable travel speeds are achieved even with varied ground condition and loads.
In automatic mode, the operator can concentrate on steering operation and drive feeling
similar to driving an automobile.
•
Manual mode
The operator sets the desired engine revolutions and operates the hydraulic pump with the
joystick lever to adjust the travel speed.
The engine revolutions can also be set with the accelerator pedal.
This mode allows the operator to feel as if the operator operates the machine in a manner
close to the conventional operating method. The manual mode is normally used to manually
operate the machine to fit varied ground condition and loads.
Travel Mode Switching
The travel mode can be changed using the mode selector switch (1).
Before changing the travel mode, be sure to turn the engine speed control dial (2) and the travel
speed control dial (3) full counterclockwise to the lowest setting and turn ON the parking switch
(4).
