• a steering actuator for driving a steering adjustment of a steering apparatus of a travel unit of the construction machine;
• and
• a transmission device, which is arranged between the steering element and the steering actuator, the transmission device including an actuator orbitrol for driving the steering actuator, wherein an upstream orbitrol is provided, said upstream orbitrol being arranged between the steering element and the actuator orbitrol in such a way that, on the one hand, it is driven by the steering element and, on the other hand, it drives the actuator orbitrol.
