41 11.4 Basic setting (initialisation)

After repairs to the sensors, stroke measuring cylinders or a malfunction in the control unit, the basic settings must be restored (initialised). In the initialisation mode, the control system learns the individual end stops. At the same time the settings for the headland position are reset to the basic values.

Danger!

Never work on the machine while the tractor's engine is running. – Switch off the engine. – Remove the ignition key.
