18.5.7 Lifting unit control
To optimise field mode, the position of the front attachment is regulated using the lifting unit on
the machine. To ensure the best conditions for the respective application, one of the three
following lifting unit controls are selected.
– Lifting unit position control
When the lifting unit position control is active, the control sets the height of the front
attachment to a constant value relative to the machine.
– Lifting unit ground pressure control
When the lifting unit ground pressure control is active, the control adjusts the pressure of
the front attachment on the ground to a constant value
– Lifting unit distance control (optional)
If lifting unit distance control is activated, the control function continuously regulates the
height of the front attachment relative to the ground by means of active pivoting.
Lifting unit distance control can only be activated in conjunction with a mounted maize front
attachment that is fitted with header contour sensors.
In field mode, the current lifting unit control is displayed in the drive data information section.
The actual height of the lifting unit and the corresponding setpoint pressure/setpoint height are
displayed in the settings information section in the lifting unit menu field.
