Tell me about Kubota Regen

[dadiehl]

I too have an M7060. The way my dealer explained it is while working if the regen idiot light comes on along with the raise RPM light just bump up the RPM until the raise rpm light goes out. Keep it up until the regen light goes out. If you need a parked regen you can’t use the machine for that few minutes. That’s the whole park it and put the throttle on low n hit the parked regen button. I was told the tractor won’t allow a true parked regen until it needs it. In all honesty the more I look into this topic the cloudier it seems to get.

I monitor the display on my dash to see how close I am getting to regeneration, When I am at 98% or so, I make sure that I am doing a job like mowing for at least an hour. The tractor automatically regenerates while I work-plenty of RPMs when mowing. After 15-16 minutes, it's done. I had the dealer set my tractor up so it does this automatically-I never work around combustible material, so I have no reason to inhibit regeneration. Happens on my L3560 every 25 hours or so.

This is the best explanation. I usually need to raise it up above the PTO rpms until it starts the process, then drop them down to the PTO speed.

I guess I do not know about the time left before needing to regen on your dash.
I wonder if it is on all kubotas or just certain models?
I will have to look closer at mine or read the manual better.

Mine regens about every tank of fuel , If its more than 95% I wait till it to regens before parking it so its not doing it on a cold engine next time I start the tractor...

Peter yours must use a lot less fuel then mine does.

 

[Peter 315]

Drinks the fuel ........

Mine gulps it then. I got it with a full tank. I have filled it 3 times since that first tank, with 21.5 hrs on it now. My Ford sipped it...out of a tea cup with its pinkie finger in the air.

My L3800 sips the fuel ,The L47TLB drinks the fuel, I think it shows a little more than 1/2 a gallon an hour I would have to go look at the dash.....

Wow, am I missing something, I do not see any of that on my dash?
