Triple Link Suspension (TLS II) (If Equipped)

Triple Link Suspension (TLS) provides suspension for the tractor front end using a hydro-pneumatic self-leveling system. TLS can operate simultaneously, yet independently of Load/Depth Control and Hitch Damping.

TLS will self-level automatically whenever tractor speed exceeds 1.5 km/h (0.9 mph). With implement attached and hitch raised or lowered, TLS will self level when:

• engine is shut off and restarted or
• tractor ground speed reaches 1.5 km/h (0.9 mph).

CAUTION: Avoid possible injury. Stay clear of tractor on start-up because TLS will self-level up and down.

Check for adequate clearance with TLS system when attaching a front-mounted implement.

Use normal cold weather procedures. TLS system may require extra time to function correctly. TLS system may not operate if system had not re-centered during the first 80 seconds of operation. Several restarts may be required.

If a fault occurs in the leveling control, the Service Alert indicator (A) comes on, and a corresponding message appears on the CommandCenter display. To clear fault, stop and restart the engine; if the fault repeats, contact your John Deere dealer.
