Settings | Limiters | Maximum Engine Power

Maximum Engine Power sets the maximum allowable engine load that HarvestSmart™ is allowed to operate.

Modify When:

  • If harvesting in conditions such as dry, level terrain, even feeding, and standing crop, operating at a higher Maximum Engine Power can promote more capacity and efficiency.
  • If harvesting in conditions such as mud, steep terrain, slug feeding, and lodged crop, operating at a lower Maximum Engine Power allows for more consistent performance and reduced risk of engine stalling.
