ABSTRACT:
The invention features an electronic feedback circuit for varying the steering ratio of a motorized material handling vehicle in response to the vehicular speed. The lock-to-lock turn of the steering wheel or column is electronically adjusted in order to modify the steering response (i.e., steering angle) of the steer/drive wheel with respect to an increase in speed of the vehicle. The steering ratio can be a straight-line function of vehicular speed.
