On towed implements, disconnect wiring harnesses from tractor before servicing electrical system components or welding on machine.

Handle Electronic Components and Brackets Safely

Falling while installing or removing electronic components mounted on equipment can cause serious injury. Use a ladder or platform to easily reach each mounting location. Use sturdy and secure footholds and handholds. Do not install or remove components in wet or icy conditions.
If installing or servicing a RTK base station on a tower or other tall structure, use a certied climber.
If installing or servicing a global positioning receiver mast used on an implement, use proper lifting techniques and wear proper protective equipment. The mast is heavy and can be awkward to handle. Two people are required when mounting locations are not accessible from the ground or from a service platform.

Use Seat Belt Properly
Use a seat belt when you operate with a roll-over protective structure (ROPS) or cab to minimize chance of injury from an accident such as an overturn.
Do not use a seat belt if operating without a ROPS or cab.
Replace entire seat belt if mounting hardware, buckle, belt, or retractor show signs of damage.
Inspect seat belt and mounting hardware at least once a year. Look for signs of loose hardware or belt damage, such as cuts, fraying, extreme or unusual wear, discoloration, or abrasion. Replace only with replacement parts approved for your machine. See your John Deere dealer.

Operate Guidance Systems Safely

Do not use guidance systems on roadways. Always turn off (disable) guidance systems before entering a roadway. Do not attempt to turn on (activate) a guidance system while transporting on a roadway.
Guidance systems are intended to aid the operator in performing eld operations more efciently. The operator is always responsible for the machine path.
Guidance Systems include any application that automates vehicle steering. This includes, but may not be limited to, AutoTrac, iGuide, iTEC Pro, ATU, and RowSense.
To prevent injury to the operator and bystanders:

Use AutoTrac Controller on Approved Vehicles

Use AutoTrac Controller only on Approved Vehicles—see StellarSupport.Deere.com for list of approved vehicles
When activity monitor is selected, AutoTrac Controller looks for operator activity every seven minutes. Operator
Never get on or off a moving vehicle.
Verify the machine, implement, and guidance system
are set up correctly. If using iTEC Pro, verify accurate boundaries have been dened. Remain alert and pay attention to the surrounding
environment. Take control of the steering wheel, when necessary, to
avoid eld hazards, bystanders, equipment, or other obstacles. Stop operation if poor visibility conditions impair your
ability to operate the machine or identify people or obstacles in the machine path. Consider eld conditions, visibility, and vehicle
conguration when selecting vehicle speed.

AutoTrac Controller

AutoTrac Accuracy

IMPORTANT: The John Deere AutoTrac system relies
on the GPS system operated by the government of the United States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The system is subject to changes that could affect accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment.
The overall AutoTrac system accuracy is dependent upon many variables. The equation looks like:
AutoTrac System Accuracy = Signal accuracy + Vehicle Setup + Implement Setup + Field/Soil Conditions.
It is very important to remember:
Receiver has to go through a warm-up period after
starting. Vehicle is setup properly (ballasted according to vehicle
operator manual, etc.)

General Information

All operators must be familiar with AutoTrac system and operating characteristics prior to operation. Operator must know the make of the AutoTrac controller installed on their machine prior to operation.The following is a suggested procedure for operator to become familiar with system:
1. Read and understand Operators Manual for GreenStar
Guidance—Parallel Tracking and AutoTrac Assisted Steering Systems.
2. Choose an open area free of hazards (ditches,
buildings, etc.).
3. Set Track Spacing to 92.0 meters (300 ft).
4. Set a Track 0 (A—B Line).
NOTE: Operate vehicle at a speed you are comfortable,
recommend less than 8 km/h (5 mph).
5. Enable AutoTrac on display by turning Steer ON.
6. Press Resume switch to activate AutoTrac. (See
Activating system later in this section).
7. After driving a short distance, then turn steering wheel
to turn vehicle off track to deactivate AutoTrac. (See Deactivating System later in this section).
8. Practice Activating AutoTrac at different distances
before and after crossing track and at different angles. Increase and decrease speeds to simulate different operating conditions.
9. Reduce Track Spacing to acquire multiple tracks and
continue practicing activating AutoTrac at different angles and varying speeds to understand how AutoTrac behaves under different conditions.
Implement is setup to run properly (wear parts such
as shanks, shovels, and sweeps are in good working condition and correctly spaced). Understand how eld/soil conditions affect system
(loose soil requires more steering than rm soil, but rm soil can cause uneven draft loads).
IMPORTANT: Although AutoTrac system can be
activated when SF2 (or SF1 if using AutoTrac SF1 activation) correction signal is conrmed, system accuracy may continue to increase after powering up system.
AutoTrac SF2 activation will operate on a SF1, SF2, or RTK signal.
AutoTrac SF1 activation will operate on a SF1 signal only.
CF86321,00002B7 -19-05AUG11-1/1
Always be prepared to resume manual control if AutoTrac does not perform expected maneuvers or machine course must be changed to avoid injury or property damage. Operator can regain manual steering by turning steering wheel or Disabling AutoTrac by turning Steer off on display. It is recommended practice to be as close as possible to desired track prior to activating AutoTrac. This will ensure correct track and direction are acquired.
The AutoTrac basic system is intended to be used as an assistance tool to mechanical markers on planters. Operator must evaluate overall system accuracy to determine specic eld operations where assisted steering may be used. This evaluation is necessary because accuracy required for various eld operations may differ depending on farming operation. Because AutoTrac uses StarFire differential correction network along with Global Positioning System (GPS), slight shifts in position may occur over time.
To operate AutoTrac operator must set track 0 (similar to parallel tracking) and all tracks are drawn parallel to track 0 using track spacing.
The AutoTrac system operating status can exist at four levels: INSTALLED, CONFIGURED, ENABLED, and ACTIVATED.
After enabling AutoTrac (see Enabling AutoTrac), AutoTrac is activated by pressing resume switch on armrest (see Activating AutoTrac). To return to manual steering, operator must deactivate system (see Deactivating System).
If required track can be shifted left, right or centered using shift track feature on display. (See Shift Track).
