OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - 4
Automatic productivity management (APM)
Overview
In standard operation, engine RPMs are set by the throt-
tle lever. Transmission gears are selected by up or down
shift buttons. To maintain a desired ground speed, the op-
erator adjusts both the gear setting and the throttle lever
position.
Automatic productivity management (APM)
offers automatic continuous ground speed
operation with the Powershift transmission.
APM operates in two modes: APM field
and APM road.
The operator uses this three position
switch on the armrest console to select a
RCPH08CCH016AAC 1
mode of operation.
Press the top of the switch (trailer icon) to select APM
road.
Press the bottom of the switch (plow icon) to select APM
field.
NOTE: This switch was formerly used for the autoshift
feature which has been replaced by automatic productivity
management.
In automatic productivity management (APM), the hand
throttle is used to select the desired ground speed. The
APM system then uses engine speed (RPMs) and trans-
mission gears to attain and maintain the selected ground
speed.
The minimum throttle lever position is the minimum possi-
ble vehicle speed. The maximum throttle lever position is
the maximum possible vehicle speed. The speed range
differs between APM Field and APM Road.
Once the operator picks the desired ground speed, the
control system picks the gear and engine RPM for the
vehicle.
If the vehicle is operating under a heavy load,
• the system selects a lower gear, and
• engine RPMs are increased to produce more horse-
power.
• If vehicle load increases, the system selects lower
gears and increases engine RPMs to maintain the
desired ground speed and accommodate the vehicle
load, until maximum power is reached.

Calibrating the suspended axle
If the message “Suspended Axle Cal Required” displays
on the instrumentation, or when an operator suspects the
suspended axle is not operating properly, perform the fol-
lowing calibration procedure. The tractor must be running
for this procedure.
WARNING
Move the vehicle to an open area, free of obstacles
and away from personnel. Transmission clutches are
engaged during controller calibration, and the vehicle
may move during calibration. The operator must be
ready to take control of the vehicle at any time. Failure RCPH08CCH203AAC 9
to comply may result in death or serious injury.
M588
NOTE: See “Entering the suspended axle screens” at the
beginning of this section for instructions on navigating to
the “TRANS F SUS” screen.
Press the INCR or DECR key from the
“TRANS F SUS” screen until the “F SUS CAL” displays,
and then press the PROG key.
Calibration runs automatically and the front suspension
moves up and down through its complete mechanical
range. When the procedure is complete, a screen similar
to this displays. The * Pos (asterisk positive) indicates
that calibration was successful. If a “Cal Failed” screen
displays, the procedure must be performed again.
When calibration is successful, press the PROG key to
exit the calibration screen.
Press the INCR or DECR key until the “F SUS Exit” screen
displays, and then press PROG key to return to the normal
operating screens.
RCPH08CCH202AAC 10
Viewing pressures on the suspended axle
An operator may view various system pressures when
they suspect the system is not correcting or calibrating
properly. The piston pressure values will vary based on
weight, load and distribution on the rod side versus the
piston side. With no load on the tractor these values
should be close to each other. If the cylinder pressures
ever exceed the pressures of the associated accumulator,
this is an indication that the suspension is not working.

speed above 1171 RPM (for the 1000 RPM shaft), or
632 RPM (for the 540 RPM shaft), an alarm sounds.
1000 PTO RPM or 540 PTO RPM is reached at 1800
RPM engine speed.
PTO controller software monitors the PTO load during en-
gagement and displays messages to the operator based
on the sensed PTO load. The software now distinguishes
between normal and heavy loads for engagement. The
heavy load setting is intended for grinder/mixers, large
balers, and other implements which can be started when
loaded.
If the software detects a heavy PTO load when the switch
is engaged, the engagement process stops and a mes-
sage "PTO Load Heavy? Confirm Engage Rate” displays
