3.7.1.1. Locking The Steering Axle
For vehicles with Electronic Braking System
(EBS), the stray axle can be locked automati-
cally when the reverse gear is engaged in or-
der to reverse. It is also possible to lock this
axle manually.
Drive the vehicle straight ahead so that the
steering axle is in a level position before the
steering axles locks up.
If the automatic axle locking feature is active in
your vehicle, the steering axle will be locked
automatically when you engage reverse gear.
If you want to lock axles manually, make sure
that the steering axle is in straight position and
close the valve (1) or turn the button to the off

The axle is in the locked position when the
valve handle is turned towards you.

Axle lifting feature is controlled automatically
due to the legal regulations. When the speed
limit exceeded while the EBS is active, some
axles can be lifted automatically if the load on
the axles is less than the maximum allowable
axle load.
It may be necessary for the operator to manu-
