ASSISTED STEERING SYSTEM
The unique EZ-Steer® assisted steering system turns the steering wheel for you by combining a friction wheel and motor with GPS guidance from the EZ-Guide® Plus lightbar. Now, while the EZ-Steer system keeps you +/- 6-8 inches on line in any terrain, you can focus on many different tasks, such as spray or planter performance. Basically, the EZ-Steer system gives you time to ponder the fuel and input savings of straighter rows -while reducing driver fatigue.
The EZ-Steer system is easy to install, setup and use. Installation can be completed in less than 30 minutes with 1 wrench. No need for complex hydraulic interfaces. You can remove the system from a vehicle in a few minutes and never know it was fitted.
Trimble's exclusive T2™ terrain compensation technology gives the EZ-Steer user +/- 6-8 inch pass-to-pass accuracy and smooth hands-free driving on rolling, sloping or even rough terrain such as ditches waterways and terraces. This optional feature uses two accelerometers and two gyroscopes to compensate for roll and yaw. Information from these sensors, located in the steering controller, is used at 10 times per second to compensate the GPS position for sloping and rough terrain - as illustrated by the diagram below.
