DIESEL PARTICLE FILTER 
The exhaust system of a tractor is 
equipped with a diesel particle filter 
which serves for cleaning exhaust 
fumes. Solid particles (carbon particles) 
are collected and burned in diesel 
particle filter which originate by burning 
diesel. 
The activity of diesel particle filter is 
signalized by a pair of controls (green 
and red) on the dashboard. 
When starting the engine, a green 
control lights up on a dashboard briefly. 
It signalizes that the system of diesel 
particle filter works. 
The failures in diesel particle filter 
system are with the engine running 
signalized by a red control lighting up on 
the dashboard. 
Clogging of diesel particle filter 
automatically regenerates the exhaust 
gases temperature with higher engine 
load. 
 
When operating tractors with 
engines equipped with diesel 
particle filter, avoid long-term 
operation or low engine load.
