Cruise Control

[Elcid76]

On my L3240, the throttle works with the cruise control. Generally I use cruise while bush-hogging, so I set the throttle around 540 PTO RPM, and use the cruise for my ground speed. I also use the cruise to creep while blading the driveway. I have not found any connection between the HST pedal and the cruise lever. The cruise allows me to keep implements spinning at rated speed (540) and yet still creep over the ground. I use cruise a lot.

OK, will try it with the ATA off.

Will do it right now, Thanks to all.

Let us know whether or not it turned out to be that your Auto Throttle was engaged.

BTW, it can be adjusted so your tractor will move faster at lower RPM. I like it that way much better :thumbsup: I can point you to a thread detailing it if desired.

Thanks guys, you called that one.

When I de-activated the ATA, it moved out with as low an RPM as with the cruise.

The ATA is a fine option, but is set way too high.

I would appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction on it's adjustment.

No adjustment is offered in the owners manual.
