Power Bulge

A - Engine Button

B - Engine Power below Rated Power

C - Power Bulge above Rated Power

D - Activate IPM Button

E - Deactivate IPM Button


NOTE: Power boost is activated automatically when starting the engine.

To de-activate or re-activate power boost, press engine button (A), activate icon (B) and make a choice using button (D) or (E). The indicator light (see arrow) lights up while power boost is active.

If power boost is activated at the CommandCenter™, then the following applies:

a) Transport work
The power boost is provided automatically when travel speed exceeds 15 km/h (9.3 mph). Maximum power boost becomes available from a speed of 20 km/h (12.4 mph). This power boost persists until the ground speed drops below 10 km/h (6.2 mph).

b) When work is performed with the rear PTO
When work is performed with PTO-powered devices, the power boost is provided step by step starting from a travel speed of 1 km/h (0.6 mph). The power boost is provided only if the tractor electronics detect a significant power need at the rear PTO. A maximum power boost first becomes available from a speed of 2.5 km/h (1.5 mph). Here too the condition is that the load on the rear PTO has to be correspondingly high.

NOTE: When working with the PTO, the power boost is done basically only if there is a significant power need at the rear PTO.

The power boost depending on the PTO is not available for working with the front PTO.
