(steering and drive) make up
the “dual differential,” which
performs the traditional drive
function (forward or reverse).
Unlike competitive machines,
the differential also performs a
steering function with input from
the steering motor.
• A third planetary gear set, the
“equalizing planetary,” resides
inside the transmission case. It is
connected to the dual differential,
which provides a maximum speed
difference between the right and left
final drives during a turn.
• A dedicated variable-displacement
hydraulic pump.
• A bi-directional, fixed-displacement
steering motor.
• Heavy-duty steering drive gears.
