Operation & comfort

Maximum seating comfort is crucial for long working hours. That is why we have developed an ergonomic driver’s station that makes driving the slope-tool carrier extremely comfortable. Rubber buffers absorb shocks and vibrations, and all Grammer air-cushioned reversible seat functions can be controlled easily by a joystick, guaranteeing a high degree of driving and operating comfort in both directions.

It couldn’t be easier: using a multifunction joystick, you can operate all hydraulic and electric functions, such as switching lights on and off, with your left hand.
This allows you to set the rotation direction and control the oil flow of the hydraulic PTO independently of the diesel engine’s speed. The joystick adapts its functions based on the attached accessory unit, and the machine automatically optimizes all parameters for the recognized accessory.

One of the greatest technical innovations lies in the right-hand multifunctional joystick: with a simple 60° rotation in either direction, the machine achieves an unparalleled steering angle of +/- 80°, further enhancing Vitrac’s outstanding maneuverability. This joystick also operates the differential lock, the activation button, the direction reversal, the throttle control, and the cruise control – all with the right hand, ensuring maximum safety and ease of use even after hours of work.

All relevant information can be seen on the control panel: Temperatures, speed, daily distance, and overall distance or maintenance intervals. Individual settings can be accessed for the accessory unit attached. The ignition switch and the control unit for the diesel engine are easy to reach and well-protected.

Driving speed can be continuously adjusted up to 10 km/h / 6 mph using the ergonomic pedal. The left footboard is angled to provide secure footing even on steep terrain.

The Vitrac color display clearly shows all the relevant information for each accessory unit. If the sprayer is attached, for example, the display will indicate the spray pressure, the air deflectors’ position, and each nozzle’s on-off status. The display also provides information on lifting power and float settings for the built-in hoist. The user can select the standard and additional equipment settings from the menu and adjust them according to requirements.
