1.1 DANA General


The axle described in this manual has been designed and manufactured according to the customer's speci-
fications. It comprises a housing containing the differential in its central section and a wheel hub assembly
at each end.
The differential is "Limited slip" type, and is held in place by two half bearings mounted on a suitable support
allowing adjustment of the crownwheel and pinion assembly.
The bevel gear is supported by two bearings and is adjusted using shims.
The wheel hubs containing the final drives are held in place by two tapered roller bearings and driven by a
hydraulically-controlled steering gear.
The front axle is driven by the tractor's gearbox via a universal joint shaft passing underneath the engine.

2 Principles of operation
The front axle receives movement via the transmission shaft coming from the gearbox. The transfer of this
movement is governed by a clutch, which is located between the gearbox and the transmission shaft. The
cab control is electric, but the mechanical action on the clutch is hydraulic.
The transmission shaft drives the pinion from the crownwheel and pinion, which in turn drives the ring gear.
This then transfers the movement through the differential, which drives the axle shafts and the epicyclic gear
trains of the reduction units located in the final drives. The front wheels are then set in motion.
Differential locking is governed by a clutch in line with operator usage. The control is electric in the cab and
hydraulic in the front axle.
Depending on the option fitted to the tractor, the
front axle is either suspended fig. 8 or fixed fig. 9.
The suspension is controlled from the cab, where it
is activated/deactivated as required. A system com- V
prising 6 solenoid valves and 2 accumulators (actu-
ated by an electronic controller) control the height of
the suspension and the damping quality.

A double-acting ram (V) provides the steering. This


is controlled by a steering unit with an electrohy-
draulic valve fig. 10. This unit provides the following
applications:
– Auto-Guide
– SpeedSteer
– Active/inactive steering

Fig. 10. I007486

The steering unit is supplied by a main pump (single-stage 315 cc steering pump) and a steering standby
pump for when the steering unit is subjected to vigorous actuation (SpeedSteer).

– check that the last service inspections have been complied with
Before starting the tests, run the engine and operate a hydraulic function to reach a hydraulic operating tem-
perature of 60 °C (140 °F). To assist the rise in temperature, connect a flowmeter to an auxiliary spool valve
and limit the flowmeter flow rate.
To quickly read off the hydraulic oil temperature, go
to diagnostic mode on the instrument panel by
pressing the top arrow located on the steering col-
umn for 7 seconds. The screen fig. 2 is displayed.

Checking the ram pressure: parameters required and tools used
Parameters required: – Hydraulic oil temperature at 60 °C (140 °F)
– Engine idle speed at 800 rpm
Tools used – Pressure gauge, minimum value of 250 bar (3626 psi)
– Hydraulic T connector

Checking the ram pressure: Procedure


First method
1. Decompress the system via the screw (Z).
2. Fit a T connector to the piston line of the ram (A)
in order to read off the maximum pressure.
3. Connect the pressure gauge.
4. Start the suspended front axle calibration proce-
dure in order to reach the upper stop, so that the
pressure is at maximum.
5. When the ram is in the maximum position, the
pressure reading on the pressure gauge is nor-
mally:
P = 200 bar (2901 psi) ± 10 bar (145 psi)
A Z

Calibrate the suspended front axle: Procedure


NOTE: Calibration procedure
Calibration must be carried out on the suspended front axle when:
– the position sensor is adjusted or replaced,
– the Autotronic 5 is replaced
– the EXT Lite is replaced.
Calibration consists of determining the values of the upper and lower suspension stops.
If no calibration value has been stored, error 11 is displayed.
To enter calibration mode:
1. Press the suspension activation switch for 10
seconds.
2. The suspended front axle indicator light on the 4 5 6
instrument panel (2) flashes fig. 36. 3
3. Press and hold down the suspension activation
switch until the axle reaches its upper stop.
4. Once the maximum upper position is reached, 2
release the switch.
5. Press and hold down the suspension deactiva-
tion switch until the axle reaches its lower stop.
1
6. Once the maximum lower position is reached,
release the switch.
7. When the switch is released, the suspension 7 8
activates automatically (intermediate position).
NOTE: If the stop values are outside the al-
lowed tolerances or if suspension travel is lower Fig. 3. I004255

than the minimum fixed value, the Autotronic 5


remains in Calibration mode. In this case, adjust Crop_this_page
the position sensor more accurately.
If the stop values are outside the allowed toler-
ances or if suspension travel is lower than the
minimum fixed value, the EXT Lite remains in
Calibration mode. In this case, adjust the posi-
tion sensor more accurately.
Reminder of the signal values:
– low position from 1.2 V to 1.3 V
– high position from 3.3 V to 4.2 V

1 4-wheel drive clutch - General information


General information fig. 1
The front axle clutch assembly is fitted in the lower part of the gearbox. In order to access to the 4-wheel
drive clutch, the transmission module must be removed.
This comprises:
– a shaft (5) turning on two ball bearings fitted in the bore of the gearbox housing
– a hydraulic clutch assembly integral with the rotating gear (15)
– a disc carrier (9) centred on the shaft by needle roller bearings, which drives the clutch discs.
The helical gear (15) is constantly meshed to the idler gear on the pinion.
Declutching operation fig. 1
The 4-wheel drive solenoid valve directs the 17 bar (247 psi) pressure inside the shaft (5) via a drilled channel
in the gearbox housing.
The pressure moves the piston washer (20), which presses against the spring washers (17) via the piston
(18), thus releasing the discs (30).
The disc carrier (9) attached to the shaft no longer turns.
Clutch operation fig. 1
When the pressure is cut off, the spring washers are released and push the piston and piston-washer assem-
bly; this compresses the discs (30), allowing the disc carrier (9) attached to the shaft to turn.

Coupler function - Power take-off
General
Calibration of the following functions is necessary for optimal performance:
– high/low speed range (Hare/Tortoise)
– transmission
– coupler function
– Calibration of the power take-off is also possible with special tools if there is a problem when starting.
Input at level 1 - CAL 1: Procedure
IMPORTANT: In order to carry out a calibration, any error codes must be corrected.
If an error code is active: the calibration returns an error immediately.
NOTE: This procedure must be repeated for each calibration.
1. Start the engine.
2. Engage and release the clutch pedal in order to delete the "TC" "DC" display from the screen on the right-
hand side of the instrument panel
3. Within the next 5 seconds, simultaneously press keys on the Dash Control Center keypad.
4. The screen fig. 28 appears, displaying the 4
symbols of the functions to be calibrated:
– High/low speed range (Hare/Tortoise)
– Transmission
– Coupler function
– Power take-off
The selected function is displayed in reverse
video.
Crop_this_page
5. Before starting calibration, ensure that the trac-
tor is in a suitable condition.
6. Select the function to be calibrated using keys
on the Dash Control Center keypad and
then press "OK".

5. Having selected in the CAL1 screen fig. 28,
press "OK" to start calibration.
6. The calibration lasts for approximately 6 min-
utes and takes place in 3 steps, shown one after
the other on the screen fig. 29:
– Step 0: Slow speed range (Tortoise)
– Step 1: High speed range (Hare)
– Step 2: Neutral (intermediate position)
7. The calibration result is displayed:
– "OK": successful calibration (since the cali-
bration procedure is ended by placing the
transmission in neutral, the Hare/Tortoise
symbols flash alternately on the right-hand
screen)
– "ERROR": calibration failed (repair the fault
before resuming the procedure) Fig. 2. I007465

8. Switch off the ignition for at least 30 sec-


onds in order to validate the calibration.
Transmission: Procedure
NOTE: Calibration procedure
This calibration must be carried out systematically after changing any of the following:
– transmission control module
– transmission
– transmission high pressure sensor
– Autotronic 4
EXT Lite Crop_this_page
This calibration must be performed immediately after the range calibration.
Preliminary conditions
1. Hand brake applied or ParkLock engaged.
2. Power Control lever in neutral position.
3. High/low speed range (Hare/Tortoise) in neutral (Hare/Tortoise symbols flash alternately on the right-hand
screen).
The high/low speed range (Hare/Tortoise) should be in neutral because calibration of the range has been
carried out in the previous step.
Calibration
4. Having selected in the CAL1 screen fig. 28,
press "OK" to start calibration.
5. Engine speed automatically adjusts to 1600
rpm.
6. Hare/Tortoise symbols continue to flash alter-
nately.
7. The calibration lasts for approximately 6 sec-
onds and takes place in 7 steps, shown one af-
ter the other on the screen fig. 30.
These 7 steps allow calibration of the hydraulic
motors and pumps.

1 General
The steering system used on the tractors is a hydrostatic system with no mechanical linkage between the
steering wheel and the steering ram.
Its control system is closed centre with a Load Sensing load signal.
The steering system comprises:
– 3 pumps:
– the steering gear pump
– the standby pump
– the Load Sensing pump
– a spool valve block including the priority valves
– a master device the steering unit
– a slave device the steering ram

2 Principles of operation
Pumps
The main steering pump (1) has a displacement of
22,8 cm³ (1.39 in³). Its maximum flow rate is 57 2 1
l/min (15.1 gal/min (US)) at 2200 rpm.
Oil from the tank is sucked in by the steering pump
through a 300 μ filter.
Flow that is not used for the steering returns to the
tank via the thermostatic valve.
The LS pump (2) has a displacement of 75 cm³
(4.58 in³) and is used for the auxiliary functions of
the tractor. In certain conditions, it also supplies oil
to the steering system.
When the steering wheel is turned very quickly, this
pump supplies the additional flow required via an LS
line connected to the 175 bar (2538 psi) Orbitrol
valve and a boost valve located in the priority block.
The steering standby pump has a displacement of 8
cm³ (0.49 in³) and is driven by the 4WD shaft. Its
flow is added to that of the steering pump. If there Fig. 1. I011808

is a failure in the steering pump, the standby pump


still allows the tractor to be steered, but in forward
travel only.

Filtration
The oil from the steering pump is filtered by the 300
μ suction strainer fitted on the spacer.
Crop_this_page

Fig. 2. I004146

156 T004915
Version 2
02-08-2010
8 - Front axle
8D10 - Steering unit - General

During forward travel, the oil from the standby


pump is filtered by a cone-shaped strainer (4) inte-
grated into the suction pipe.
During reverse travel, the oil sucked by the standby
pump through the strainer located under the valve
(5) returns directly to the tank.

3 5 4

Fig. 3. I011809

Two other non-return valves (6), located at the out-


lets of the standby and steering pumps, prevent the
flow from the steering pump being channelled to
the standby pump system, and vice versa.

Steering unit
The tractor may be fitted with two different types of steering unit:
– As standard, the tractor is fitted with an OSPF 315+OVR steering unit.
This unit comprises a single-stage hydraulic steering valve (Orbitrol). The action of the steering wheel on
this valve controls the flow of oil to activate the steering ram.
The Orbitrol comprises a selector spool valve (25) fig. 7, a spring centred supply sleeve (27) fig. 7 and a
drive shaft linked to the steering column.
It includes the following 5 ports:
– pressure
– tank return
– right-hand steering ram supply
– left-hand steering ram supply
– Load Sensing
– The tractor may be fitted with an electronically controlled steering unit as an option
This Orbitrol unit, OPSF 315 EH LSRM, has a displacement of 315 cm³ (19.22 in³).
It provides two additional options compared to the standard unit:
– accelerated steering (ASR): the ASR system allows the user to decrease the number of steering
wheel turns from stop to stop, reducing the movement required of the steering wheel to turn the
wheels
– Auto-Guide: this unit is also used for the Auto-Guide option if fitted to the tractor

158 T004915
Version 2

8D10 - Steering unit - General

Steering sensors
A sensor fitted to the front axle measures the steering angle of the wheels in order to disengage the front
axle when this angle exceeds 25° and unlock the differential when it exceeds 10°. This sensor is also used
by the Auto-Guide function.
A sensor fitted in the Orbitrol measures the angle of rotation of the steering wheel in order to adjust the oil
flow required when the Auto-Guide and ASR are active.

(1) Priority valve (4) Pressure sensor


(2) Thermostatic valve (5) Boost valve
(3) Pressure relief valve (6) Shuttle valves

The spool valve block receives oil from the steering pump. This oil passes through a priority valve (1) fig. 6,
which is controlled hydraulically by the Load Sensing steering system.
Depending on the steering requirements, this valve distributes the oil between the Orbitrol and a thermo-
static valve (2) .fig. 6
When the auxiliary oil temperature exceeds 70 °C (158 °F) to 80 °C (176 °F), the thermostatic valve sends the
oil to the cooler. Conversely, if the oil temperature drops below 70 °C (158 °F), the valve sends the oil straight
to the tank.
The steering unit also includes a boost valve (5) fig. 6, which sends part of the flow from the LS pump to the
steering pump when additional oil is required.
Steering Load Sensing
The steering LS system does not act like the standard LS system. While the standard system activates the
variable displacement of the LS pump, this allows the spools of the steering unit valves to be moved so as
to restrict the flow and pressure in the steering unit.
At neutral
When the steering wheel is not moved, the LS steering system is connected to the return system to prevent
the pressure building up in the system.
Consequences:
– The valve (1) sends oil to the oil cooler and the tank.
– The boost valve (5) fig. 6 is in the closed position and the LS pump cannot supply the Orbitrol.
When turning
When the operator turns the steering wheel to the right or left, the steering LS line closes at the level of the
Orbitrol spool. The pressure increases in the system.
Consequences:
– The pressure on either side of the valve (1) fig. 6 becomes equal and the power of the spring set to 10 Crop_this_page
bar (145 psi) directs the spool at full flow to the steering system.
– The boost valve (5) fig. 6 is supplied if necessary. For example, if the engine is running at low speed, the
steering pump also runs at idle, at minimum flow rate. If the operator turns the steering wheel in difficult
conditions (e.g. when the tractor is stationary), steering is harder because there is not enough flow to
supply the Orbitrol. The LS line opens the boost valve, allowing the variable displacement pump to supply
the steering system. The additional flow is controlled by the shuttle valves 6 fig. 6 in the LS line of the
variable displacement pump.
When the rams reach their stop, the steering LS pressure decompresses through the main relief valve
of the Orbitrol, set to 175 bar (2538 psi), returning the spool valves to position in order to redistribute the
oil flow to the cooler and the return. The steering system is protected by a relief valve set to 175 bar
(2538 psi). When this valve opens, the LS line brings the priority valve back to the return position.
With electrohydraulically controlled steering unit fig. 10
When the electrohydraulically controlled steering unit option is fitted, the LS line includes a 2/2 valve (4)
fig. 10 to control the Auto-Guide spool valves.

In neutral position (engine running), the Orbitrol spool valve (25) is centred in relation to the sleeve (27) by
the springs (13). The right and left-hand channels are not supplied and the steering LS line is connected to
the tank return.
Two security valves (1) and two non-return suction valves (2) are integrated into the left and right-hand outlet
ports. The security valve protects the system between the ram and the steering unit. The suction valve then
allows the other side of the system to compensate for any lack of oil.

The initial movement of the steering wheel moves the spool against the leaf springs. This opens the closed-
centre pressure port and aligns the notches of the spool with the ports in the sleeve, thus allowing the oil to
flow to the metering valve. When the steering wheel is subsequently moved, this makes the metering valve,
sleeve and wheel rotate further. At the same time, the metering valve controls the oil flow and channels it
back to the sleeve and spool. The oil return is then sent via the notches in the spool, which aligns with the
holes in the sleeve and channels the oil to one side or the other of the steering ram (depending on the move-
ment of the steering ram). The steering ram oil return is sent to the return channel (by the alignment of the
notches in the spool valve spool with the holes in the sleeve).
A relief valve is integrated into the channel, between the inlet and the spool valve, in the steering unit. The
purpose of this valve is to protect the pump against excessive pressure, for example when the wheels are
at full steering lock or are pressing against an obstruction.

The supply pressure coming from P flows through a valve (1) used to reduce the pressure in the electrohy-
draulic control head.
The valve (2) provides security when the ASR is not activated. The valve stops the oil flow to prevent the ASR
from engaging in unfavourable conditions.
If the operator activates the ASR, oil flows through the valve (2) to 4 electrically controlled solenoid valves
(3). These 4 solenoid valves allow the proportional spool (5) to be moved when the Auto-Guide and ASR func-
tions are operating, in order to supply the steering ram. The oil flow is then added to that of the Orbitrol, al-
lowing the steering to be turned more quickly.
The oil flow then passes through a reaction/non-reaction valve (6), which allows or prevents the flow of oil
through it, in order for the pressure from the ram to return the wheels to a straight line.

Before starting the tests, run the engine and operate a hydraulic function to reach a hydraulic operating tem-
perature of 60 °C (140 °F). To assist the rise in temperature, connect a flowmeter to an auxiliary spool valve
and limit the flowmeter flow rate.
To quickly read off the hydraulic oil temperature, go
to diagnostic mode on the instrument panel by
pressing the top arrow located on the steering col-
umn for 7 seconds. The screen fig. 2 is displayed.

Steering unit pump test: parameters required and tools used


Parameters required: – Hydraulic oil temperature at 60 °C (140 °F)
– Engine idle speed at 800 rpm

Steering unit pump test: Procedure


1. Using the steering wheel, place the wheels in the right or left-hand full lock position.
2. Mark the position of the steering wheel.
3. Turn the steering wheel to full lock on the other side and count the number of turns it takes to reach this
point.
4. According to the full lock stop settings, the number of steering wheel turns is between:
3.5 turns < N < 4.5 turns
Checking the steering boost function: parameters required and tools used
Parameters required: – Hydraulic oil temperature at 60 °C (140 °F)
– Engine idle speed at 800 rpm
Tools used – Pressure gauge, minimum value of 250 bar (3626 psi)

Checking the steering boost function: Procedure


NOTE: Activation of the boost function causes the plate of the variable displacement pump to tilt, which
loads the engine.
Operation of the steering boost function can be heard as an engine noise.
The boost function is physically inactive above approximately1200 rpm, as the steering pump flow rate alone
is sufficient.
1. Connect a pressure gauge to the PPLS PV pres-
sure connector.
2. With the tractor running at idle speed, turn the
steering wheel very quickly to operate the boost
function. Crop_this_page
