DPF Regeneration driving me crazy...

[Reddogs]

Get rid of the JD then and buy something different, or just run your Kubota. I have the same 3301 and as others have said, I rarely even know when it's gone into regen. I always thought the 790 was one of John Deere's better compacts. Then again I didn't realize they made them recently enough to have DPF.

No, this is the Kubota, but it seems to be getting less as I run it harder as I tend to run at idle. But try to lift up stump with it running at high RPMs, will tear the grapple off if your not careful.

Yes I am old enough.....but I lived in an area that had clean air and not many automobiles. Probably about as rural as one can get I suppose. I have a different view of government as they have forced metropolitan compliance's on a person who is a responsible citizen without their intervention.....or should i say in spite of their intervention.

Something is terribly wrong with your tractor. You are the ONLY one on here that has to put his tractor in Park for it to regenerate. All the rest of us just keep on doing what we were doing. Regen light goes on, then 15 minutes or so later it goes back off again when the cycle is done.

Well, I have read that manual and you have to rev it up to a point, where I cant do any work clearing the lots. I would tear the FEL clear off if I hit the trees at that point..

Yet what you do has an effect on others. We are on the end of the prevailing winds, and get all of the crap which the rest of you spew into the air. In the past 40 years I've seen the air quality here deteriorate drastically, while we also have lost population and much of our industry.

All I can say is you’re not making sense. There’s things that control ground speed besides rpms. Low gears or low range on the hst.

Well, try it in low range in low gear at high RPM, and hit a good size tree and you will get the picture..........

I use low range and high rpm’s all the time. Forward ground speed is not controlled by rpm’s. It’s controlled by gears and or hst pedal. And why are you ramming good sized trees?

I might put my contribution to clean air and water above yours. So don't try and claim a moral high ground here when you lump me into your problem with your supossedly deteriorating air quality. Get someone in your area to look into your problem and leave the blame where it belongs. You folks claim you can fix the climate so have your government take care of those winds.

I can remember when I was just an apprentice lineman driving an old line truck with a Detroit diesel that bellowed black smoke when you went to take off and was travelling down a city street and stopped at a red light when I heard some woman holler there's one of those son of a b&tches , so I looked around to see if I could spot him as she wheeled up beside the line truck on her bike and wearing a vest that said ONE LESS CAR, and proceeded to tell me that it was me that she was referring to due to the fact that I was driving that truck and killing the environment and quite a few more nasty comments, but the she cat do-gooder had made one fatal mistake, she had stopped her bike right next to where the exhaust pipe stuck out below the bin doors, well the light turned green and I held the brake and mashed the pedal to the floor and smoked that b#tch out, watching her rant and rave in the mirror as I went on about my day, actually felt pretty good about it. From some of these post's on here she easily could have went on to marry and indoctrinate a few of these posters.

I don’t think we will have to put up with this regen bs too much longer. Once they figure out that it costs more fuel to do it, and that puts more CO2 in the atmosphere, they will come up with a better solution.

Hopefully, I can get my pre Tier 4 tractors to last until that happens. There will be no skimping on maintenance on them, that is for sure.
