Programming Eco Engine Control
The engine speed can be programmed to operate at reduced rpm to lower fuel and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) consumption,
and to reduce in-cab noise levels.
Figure 4.19: Eco Engine Control (EEC) Button
The set-point for the engine speed can be adjusted in
increments of 100 rpm from 1800 to 2300 rpm in the Harvest
Performance Tracker (HPT) QuickMenu. While the header is
engaged, the system can easily be activated and deactivated
(depending on field conditions) using the Eco Engine Control
(EEC) button (A) on the console. When the engine is running at
less than full speed, you will notice a small reduction in the
maximum reel, draper, and ground speeds.
The EEC feature is turned ON or OFF by pressing EEC button (A)
on the operator’s console. EEC will only be available when the
header is engaged. The GREEN LEAF symbol on the HPT display
indicates that the EEC is active. If EEC is turned OFF, or the
header is disengaged, the LEAF symbol will appear grayed out.
The EEC throttle limit can be adjusted at any time.
