A - Service Alert Indicator

Triple Link Suspension Plus (TLS™ Plus) provides suspension for the tractor front end using a hydropneumatic self-leveling system. TLS™ Plus can operate simultaneously, yet independently from Load/Depth Control and Hitch Dampening.

Operating Characteristics

TLS™ Plus will level automatically when transmission is placed in a gear from Park position. With implement attached and hitch raised or lowered, TLS™ Plus 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. Always make sure transmission is in Park position when working in the area of the TLS™ Plus MFWD.

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

Cold Weather Operation

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

Troubleshooting

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.
