OPERATION

Engine ISC is useful when operating loads are reduced such as in light crop conditions that do not require the
maximum engine rpm. Reduced engine speed lowers fuel consumption, noise levels, and exhaust emissions in
addition to reducing engine wear.

The programmed engine speed is activated when the header is engaged.

Programming instructions are provided in

3.18.5 Cab Display Module (CDM) Programming, page 86

Shutting Down the Engine

CAUTION

Park on a flat, level surface, header on the ground, and the ground speed lever in N-DETENT position and
steering wheel locked.

IMPORTANT:

Before stopping engine, run at low idle for approximately five minutes to cool hot engine parts
(and allow turbocharger to slow down while engine oil pressure is available).

1. Lower header.

2. Place ground speed lever (GSL [B]) into N-DETENT.

3. Lock steering wheel.

4. Turn ignition key (A) counterclockwise to OFF position.
