First regen kicked off at 19.5 hours. I pulled the tractor out of the garage and set the throttle to about 1800 rpm, where I usually let it idle for about 10 minutes before working with it.
The regen symbol flashed, along with "F00" on the display. Then the engine note changed and soon some grey blue smoke emerged from the front exhaust. I have never actually smelled burning kitty litter, but that description sure fits the smell. Even the dog, who usually barks in challenge to the tractor, backed away from that!
By 19.7 on the 'Hobbs" meter the symbol disappeared, the smell dissipated, and everything seemed to get back to normal. Moved about 10 bucket loads of brush and some mulch after that with nothing else unusual happening.
I continue to be very happy with the tractor. I just wish I had bought it sooner.
