(1) CVT low-range maximum speed setting
NOTE :
• Details regarding relevant settings can be found
in a different section.
(See INTELLIPANEL
™
CONTROL on page 59.)
• Example: In the case of working at the 4-6 km/h
(3-4 mph) travelling speed, preferably set the
low-range maximum travelling speed to about
10 km/h (6 mph). With this setting, the travelling
speed can be kept at a nearly constant level (S)
in response to the ez-command centre
movement (T). In this way, the speed is easy to
finely adjust with the lever.
(X) Operating times of ez-command centre
(Y) Travelling speed (km/h)
(A) Low-range speed of the factory setting (15 km/h / 9 mph)
(B) Modified low-range speed (10 km/h / 6 mph)
2. Operation of the automatic mode
This mode is mainly utilised for travelling on public
roads and towing ploughs and similar implements.
The optimum travelling speed and engine power are
obtained according to the speed settings made with the
ez-command centre, foot throttle, and CVT sensitivity
settings.
(See Setting the continuously variable transmission
(CVT) sensitivity on page 175.)
NOTE :
• In the automatic mode, the engine rpm also
fluctuates with changes in load. Therefore this
mode is not suited for PTO-driven operations.
Switching to the automatic mode
1. Set the shuttle lever to neutral or press the shuttle
neutral button.
2. Set the hand throttle close to “minimum speed” , and
the automatic mode is selected.
Even during operation, do not move the hand
throttle.
Foot throttle operation (for example: trailer work)
1. You can control both the speed and the engine
power by how deeply you step on the foot throttle,
as with an automatic transmission car.
2. Release your foot from the foot throttle pedal, and
the tractor slows down.
3. To bring the tractor to a complete stop, step on the
brake pedal.
When you release the brake pedal, the tractor
starts running.
