Braking characteristics
The brake pedal must be pressed in order to brake.
Note
Releasing the accelerator pedal provides no noticeable
braking effect.
Steering characteristics
The vehicle has 2-wheel steering and selectable 4-wheel
steering.
The 2-wheel steering is activated by default when starting
the vehicle (driving mode).
The 4-wheel steering can be selected as desired (working
mode).
The 4-wheel steering allows a tighter cornering than with
2-wheel steering.
Note
Avoid fast steering movements and drive slowly in bends.
Take the swinging at the rear into account.
Centre of gravity / pendulum characteristics
Rear attachments and load statuses influence the vehicle's
centre of gravity and the driving characteristics. You must
be ready to adjust to changed driving characteristics, par-
ticularly after changing attachments and in the case of
changeable load statuses. Limit ranges may be reached
earlier.
