TRAVEL CONTROLS
NOTE:
Check the direction of the track frame (directional arrow) before operating the travel control
levers/pedals. The track frame is facing forward when the drive sprocket is to the rear of the operator.
All travel controls are reversed when the machine is facing rearward (drive sprocket is forward of
operator). See “Directional Arrow” on page 3-22.
The travel control levers (3) or pedals (4) are used to
change the machine’s traveling direction:
•
Forward travel: Push the control levers (3) or
pedals (4) forward (1).
•
Backward travel: Pull the control levers or pedals
backward (2).
•
Neutral position (N): When the travel control
levers/pedals are released, they return to the
neutral position and machine movement stops.
NOTE:
The footrests (5) are not control devices.
Directional Arrow
The directional arrow (1) on the inboard side of each of the
track frames indicates forward movement of the machine.
The drive sprocket is at the rear of the track frame, and the
idler is at the front of the machine. Check these arrows
before using the travel control levers/pedals.
If the directional arrow is pointing backward, the travel
direction will be opposite the maneuvering direction of the
travel control lever/pedal. The machine will move forward
when you pull the control levers backward, and backward
when you push them forward. Left and right control
directions are also reversed when the track frame faces
backward.
NOTE:
The left side directional arrow is shown. The
right side is similar.
WARNING!
• Take extra care when using the travel control pedals to steer the machine.
• Never place your feet on the travel control pedals unless you are driving or steering the
machine, which could cause unexpected movement.
Failure to follow these warnings could result in death or serious injury.
