Setting Hitch Slip Response

NOTE: Tractor must be equipped with radar, and load/depth control must be in draft control mode for hitch slip to function. See Using Draft Control in this section.

Hitch can be operated with draft sensing only, or with draft sensing and hitch slip. Hitch slip adjustment is independent from draft response.

Hitch slip uses wheel slip data to supplement draft control system and help maintain uniform working depth. Hitch slip only functions if wheel slip is above 10%.

  2. Select Hitch Slip soft key (A).

  3. NOTE: Changing slip response setting will only affect operation if wheel slip is above 10%.

    Changes to slip response take place immediately.

  4. Rotate thumb to adjust slip response. As hitch slip response is adjusted, indicator adjusts in bar graph (B). Higher values provide more/faster response to slip variation. Lower values provide less/slower response to slip variation. Changes to slip response setting take place immediately.

    NOTE: Slip response automatically returns to zero during transport (speed above 20 km/h [12.4 mph]).
