The axle
follows the vehicle and operates by displacement caused by turns, and should be
blocked whilst travelling (at average or high speeds) and in reverse.
The auto-pilot axle
is an axle controll cylinder located on the vehicle’s jib, a closed
hydraulic circuit with nitrogen-filled spheres to keep up the pressure. A tread needs to be
placed on the tractor. It is to be noted that Rolland auto-pilots can be turned into axles
when attached to a treadless tractor since the blocking cylinders of the axle lock have been
preserved. The advantage of this system is that heat doesn’t need to enter at the point of
driving motion, whether forwards or in reverse.
