OPERATING THE MACHINE24
BGlide Steer
This machine is equipped with the Glide Steer.
It allows full time front axle drive preventing turf damage.
The rear axle has left and right axle clutches inside and
both clutch arms are connected to the front axle king pin
support with rods.
When driving straight, the rear axle clutches are engaged
and both left and right tires have traction. When turning
right or left, the rods are pulled by the king pin and
disengage the inside rear tire clutch. This will make the
front tire and outside rear tire speed differences small.
If the adjustment is not correct or some malfunction
occurs in the system, rear clutches are engaged all times
and result in larger turn radius or turf damage. In that
case, contact your Kubota dealer for checking.
