2 DESCRIPTION
2.1 Drive
The machine is rear wheel drive.
The rear axle is equipped with a hydrostatic trans-
mission with infinitely variable forward and re-
verse gear ratios.
The rear axle is also equipped with a differential to
facilitate turning.
Front mounted tools are driven by drive belts.
2.2 Steering
The machine is articulated. This means that the
chassis is divided into a front and a rear section,
which can be turned in relation to each other.
The articulated steering means that the machine
can turn around trees and other obstacles with an
extremely small turning radius.

system. The safety system interrupts certain activ-

The operation of the safety system must
always be checked every time before
use.
