Description
The fundamental principles of mating attachments or drawn
equipment electronically and hydraulically to combines and
tractors will be the basis of this course. Concepts such as CAN
bus diagnosis, ECV and ICV calibration, header compatibility and
hydraulic flow requirements will be developed. Students will also
be able to determine proper harness and hose congurations
and basic operating characteristics for these types of equipment.
Students will be taught how to utilize available technical
information from both service and sales manuals, as well as
compatibility guides. In field diagnosis of operating problems
with planting and harvest equipment and the ability to determine
a course of action to remedy the situation will be elements of this
learning path.
