Item Description
1 Fully fl oating axle 2 Steer cylinder 3 Steering angle sensor (Hall sensor) 4 Magnet support 5 Grease nipple The steering axle with its integrated steering cylinder forms a complete unit with the steering wheels. It is positioned elastically and vibration-proof in the counterweight in two rubber layers to compensate for ground irregularities. The steering cylinder transmits the steering movement to the king pin via two connecting units. The steering angle sensor transmits the current actual value of the wheel position to the drive controller and thereby controls the travel speed as a function of the steering angle.
Service Note:
After replacing the steering angle sensor see service manual B 6001: “Steering angle sensor replacement / adjustment -Assembly”. For consumables refer to “Consumables” in the operating instructions
