The dealer told me the best thing that he was told since he is new to the DPF stuff is to keep the RPMs up a little. Maybe a minimum of 1500 or so. I know when I first got it I wanted to be gentle on mine and didnt do that and I noticed it went through the DPF cycle more often. Now I keep it up around 1500 to 1800 and I notice that it goes thru the cycle every 4 hours. Getting close to my 50 hr service that I need to take care of.

That's kind of what I was thinking about the RPMs. I think that may be why my light triggered momentarily. I'll keep an eye on the light. Thanks gphil.

Mine comes on with the DPF lights for at least 45 minutes and power is cut in half..............

I spoke with my dealer today in reference to the engine warning light. He said others experienced the same scenario with the light. Usually comes on with the regen. He said he had an LS tech tell him they could not come up with an explanation for it other than possibly high soot levels as the book describes. He did say if the tractor is in a regen cycle not to shut it off. Let if finish the cycle before shutting it down at any time. Normally he says power is reduced such as mjstef stated. Mine never seemed to have reduced power. Long story short, he didn't seem to think there was much concern with it.

52 hours here, only time I have had reduced power was when it was really cold and the fluid was super thick.
During regen I have normal power.

Talk to dealer yesterday about engine light coming on with the regen lights . He talked to LS tech and said it is because of extreme cold temps and not to worry. They had an XU5055c in what a awesome tractor.

Maybe RPM too slow or too high? Not sure.
