ABSTRACT:
An articulating work machine, such as a scraper, wheel loader, or truck, is disclosed. The articulating work machine includes a fluid-powered differential and a pair of fluid-powered steering cylinders. The fluid-powered differential and the steering cylinders cooperate so as to steer the articulated work machine during advancement thereof. Moreover, the articulating work machine includes a number of rotational position and speed sensors for detecting operating parameters associated with the work machine. Such parameters are monitored by a processor in order to control operation of the work machine.
