5.3.3
FRONT STEER OVERRIDE
Push the CT15 Override fully in and hold, or pull fully out and hold. Now use the Integral Hand Pump to
operate the front steer function. The push or pull function of the CT15 Override determines either left or
right steer operation.
5.3.4
BRAKE RELEASE FOR TOWING
To tow the machine it is necessary to bypass the parking brakes. First, ensure that the machine is
restrained against running away, i.e. suitably position the towing vehicle and attach a rigid tow bar to
the towing hoops located at both ends of the chassis and adequately chock on two or more wheels in
both directions.
Moving the machine must not be attempted until adequate means to prevent it
from rolling away are in place.
Fit the hand pump handle to the Integral Hand Pump. Push and hold down the CT10 Override whilst
pumping the handle. When brake pressure is generated, the brake Pop-Out Plunger will be exposed.
The brakes are now bypassed and the
machine is capable of being towed at a
low speed.
To re-set the parking brakes, the CT8
Override Tap should be fully opened (turn
anti-clockwise). This is the red knob on
the side of the Drive Control Valve block.
Opening this knob allows the brake
pressure to dissipate from the bypass
circuit, re-setting the parking brakes and
de-energizing the tow valve. The
machine will now lock the wheels and
deny any attempt at towing.
Once complete ensure that the CT8 Tap is returned to its fully closed position.
For safety, the machine should not be left with the brakes bypassed. If the machine has to be left with
the brakes bypassed, ensure wheels are chocked and suitable placards are attached to the machine to
warn operators of this condition.
