Abstract
An agricultural irrigation system has two reciprocating cables which are reciprocated at a main pivot and connected by chain and sprocket at the far end. Alternate vehicles are attached to one or the other cables. At each vehicle the cable acts to both align the vehicle and power it through a 'joy stick' attached. Reciprocating motion of the 'joy stick' powers the vehicle and tilting motion aligns it. The alignment is accomplished by lifting the dog from a ratchet wheel.
