Front axle air suspension
Driving a tractor with air suspension on the front axle is comfortable on uneven
ground.
When driving at high speed, the front axle suspension reduces the pitching of the
tractor. Stress on the operator, tractor and implements is reduced. The automatic
lever control keeps the axle in the same position within the tractor frame
independently of the axle load.

Disengaging the front axle air suspension
The air suspension is not in use when the lock pins are in their holes. The locking
is used for maintenance. In addition, when ploughing with a fully mounted (three-
point) heavy plough when the front axle load is low, the front suspension may
interfere with the draft control sensitivity operation.
