TM5-2410-237-10 1-16.  STEERING  AND  BRAKE  SYSTEM. CONTROL  VALVE.  The  valve  is  connected  mechanically  to  the  steering  control  levers.  The  valve directs the flow of pressure oil in response to the movement of the control levers. STEERING CLUTCH. One for each track, they control the steering of the tractor. Hydraulically operated, it is controlled by the steering lever in the operator’s station. When turning left, the left clutch is released which causes the left track to stop moving and act as a pivot for the tractor to turn on. The same thing happens when turning right. BRAKES.  The  tractor  has  two  band-type  brakes  (one  on  each  steering  clutch  drum)  which  are  used  to stop the movement of the tractor, and to assist with the steering of the tractor. When the steering levers are pulled completely out, or the brake pedals are depressed, the bands tighten around the steering clutch drum. 1-11
