4 DESCRIPTION
4.1 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.

The machine is equipped with an electrical safety
system. The safety system interrupts certain activ-
