A respective hydrostatic motor 18 drives each wheel selectively in either one of two opposite directions of rotation. The truck includes control means for placing the truck in a carousel mode wherein the three wheels are set at respective steering angles in which their axes of rotation A1, A2, A3 intersect at substantially common vertical axis C equidistant from each wheel and all three wheels are driven. A switchover valve 30, which is connected between one of the front wheels 12R and a hydraulic power supply 22 and is actuated in sideways mode, is de- actuated in carousel mode.

Un moteur (18) hydrostatique correspondant entraîne chaque roue de manière sélective dans l'une des deux directions de rotation opposées. Ce chariot est équipé de dispositifs de commande pour le mettre en mode dit <=carrousel>=,dans lequel les trois roues sont positionnées en angles directionnels où leurs axes de rotation (A1, A2, A3) se croisent en un axe sensiblement commun et vertical (C) équidistant de chacune des roues, les trois roues étant entraînées. Une soupape d'inversion (30), raccordée entre une des roues avant (12R) et une alimentation de courant hydraulique (22) et actionnée en mode latéral, est désactivée en mode dit <=carrousel>=.
