214733 68 Revision A
3.14.1 Using Eco Engine Control (EEC)
Eco Engine Control (EEC) is useful in lighter crop conditions that do not require the maximum engine rpm. The reduced
engine speed lowers fuel consumption, noise levels, and exhaust emissions in addition to reducing engine wear.
Figure 3.52: Eco Engine Control (EEC)
The Eco Engine Control (EEC) limits the engine to 1900–2300
rpm when the header is engaged, and is adjustable in 100 rpm
increments. Activate this feature by using the EEC button (A) on
the operator’s console. The EEC symbol will display on the
Harvest Performance Tracker (HPT) screen over the right side of
the tachometer.
The EEC feature will only be active when the header is engaged,
but can be adjusted without the header running. When the
header is disengaged, EEC will be canceled and engine rpm will
return to the setting determined by the throttle.
Use the QuickMenu to adjust EEC rpm. Refer to QuickMenu
System, page 83.
