3-WAY SELECTOR*
This selector, which is located behind the cab, enables the front linkage operating mode to be selected to suit your
application with a single movement.
There are 3 operating modes:
15.1
"Locking" operation.
Usage:
this mode is used when the MX front linkage is not being
used or for travelling long distances with an implement
or a weight (safety in transit).
Plus, it enables the couplings at the rear of the tractor to be freed
up for another powered implement.
Description:
the MX front linkage hydraulic system is locked
out. The linkage arms can no longer be raised or lowered.
Do the following:
turn the levers as shown in the photo opposite.
15.2
"Double-acting" operation.
Usage:
this mode is used mainly when hitching up an implement
(lowering linkage arms) and for working the soil with a bulldozer
blade for instance.
Description:
the rams on the MX front linkage are pressurised
on both lifting and lowering.
Do the following:
turn the levers as shown in the photo opposite.
15.3
"Single-acting" operation.
Usage:
this mode is used mainly with a front-end mowers
or with an implement fitted with depth wheels.
Description:
the rams on the MX front linkage are pressurised
on lifting, but lowering takes place through gravity (unpressurised)
due to the weight of the implement. This absence of pressure
on lowering ensures the implement rests unconstrained on
the ground. This protects the implement.
Do the following:
turn the levers as shown in the photo opposite.
* According to equipment
Caution
—
The levers must always be turned fully to either stop.
—
Switching from Single-acting to Double-acting operation (and vice versa) must not be carried out before releasing
the hydraulic pressure.
