Steering Controls
The crane can be operated in three steering modes:
• Two-Wheel Steering Mode
• Four-Wheel Steering Mode
• Crab Steering Mode
These modes are selected using the Steering Selector
Switch (1, Figure 3-10). Because proximity switches are
used in the steering system, after a steering mode is
selected and the steering wheel is turned, the steering mode
will automatically switch when the tires are aligned in straight
ahead direction.
The steering modes are shown in Figure 3-11, 3-12, and
3-13.
Two-Wheel Steer Mode
The front wheels steer the crane (Figure 3-11). The rear
wheels remain in the fixed straight ahead position. This
mode is used for highway travel and traveling at higher
speeds.
Four-Wheel Steer Mode
NOTE: DO NOT travel at high speed with the crane in the
four-wheel steer mode. Possible tipping may occur
when turning.
The front wheels steer in the direction that the steering wheel
is turned and rear wheels turn in the opposite direction
(Figure 3-12). This mode allows for an extremely short
turning radius. It enables the rear wheels to follow the track
of the front wheels.
