4.15 Using the Flow Divider (if equipped)
Background
This machine may be equipped with an optional flow divider. Non-uniform soil
conditions, such as a combination of loose sandy material and large particles, may
cause the drums to rotate at unequal speeds. This may impede machine
movement. When activated, the flow divider equalizes the flow of hydraulic oil
traveling to each drive motor so that movement can be re-established.
Flow divider
switch
The activation switch for the flow divider is foot-operated. Follow the procedure
below to activate the flow divider.
1. Locate the activation switch (a) on the operator’s platform to the right of the
steering column.
2. Press the activation switch once to turn the flow divider system on.
3. Press the activation switch again to turn the flow divider off.
NOTICE: The flow divider is designed for intermittent use only. Continuous use of
the flow divider will cause the hydraulic oil to become overheated, possibly
damaging the hydraulic system. Only use the flow divider if necessary to re-
establish machine movement.
