Additional lines are routed through a sealed second steering shaft passage, avoiding new body openings, re-homologation, and added cost.
During 180° seat rotation, a trigger-linked steering mechanism moves the wheel upright to stop joystick impact and protect operator safety.
Occupant training levels guide who takes vehicle control, reducing unsafe automated-driving handovers in critical situations.
A rail-mounted steering console shifts between seats while sensor-based rotation limits improve safety and cockpit usability.
Sensor-linked flow limiting adapts hydraulic output to load and vehicle conditions, keeping steering or lifting speed stable and safe.
A manual changing unit controls hydraulic fluid flow so drivers can override automatic steering when obstacles or changing field conditions appear.
Redundant hydraulic paths keep the hand metering unit supplied, preventing closed-center circuit failures from blocking manual steering.
Cross-shaft and gearset coupling lets driver- and passenger-side steering columns operate one vehicle steering gear.
