Once the symbol is explained the meaning makes sense.The hydraulics stopped working and the symbol looked like some sort of lifting plate with the arrow pointing up dah

All right, I dare not claim to be smart!!!:);):)

That is called suspension cylinder system............that is explained as follow:

"STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
Plunger cylinder with inbuilt check valve. The check valve is designed as a leak free ball seat valve which is released by a control spool. The control conduit is connected to the connecting conduit of both axle lock cylinders so that the pilot pressure piloting the check valve in the cylinder head is at the same time preloading the cylinders during pendulum motion which means that only one conduit to the cylinders is necessary."

So....when travelling in the rough terrain, The superstructure will balance with the undercarriage automatically.

And here I thought it meant you were about to drive under an overpass:eek::D

Yeah, my first thought was the same exact thing.
Pay attention. Overpass ahead!!!

LACHAU nailed it with the suspension lock, which is the yellow symbol in display, but the green one when activated " and the way you explained" is for when driving on the main road, your syuspenion lock will be activated and your hydraulics deactivated, so no accidents accuse when traveling

Would anyone know what the tire pressure should be on this machine?Lifting some concrete blocks and the tires look a bit squashed.Really nice machine for a general purpose farm excavator.There is a lot to be said for the ability to roll at a pretty clip to where you need to work next.Bought the machine to flip it but have taken a shine to it and for the time being its a keeper
