Use APS (Automatic Powershift) for transport mode, not during loading or digging.
-
Use IMS (Implement Management System) to combine downshifts/upshifts, raise/lower scrapers or other functions when returning to dig area or to/from transport part of cycle. (See Implement Management Section.)
-
Drawbar height should be set so scraper cutting edge hits the ground before the scraper bottom. See Scraper Operator's Manual.
