A cool air plenum for use with an engine air intake system of a utility vehicle. The plenum prevents airflow from an engine to the air intake system.

Cool air plenum

A method and apparatus to ventilate an engine compartment of a vehicle.

Use of fan shroud to ventilate engine compartment

A work machine comprises a baffle configured to divert air flow from a source of pressurized air laterally outwardly toward a peripheral edge of the baffle to create a flow-inducing region about the peripheral edge to ventilate the engine compartment.

Flow-inducing baffle for engine compartment ventilation

A skidder having a diesel engine coupled to a multiple gear ratio transmission driving a pair of wheel sets for a skidder. The diesel engine is controlled by an operator manipulated foot pedal or hand lever to control the power output and ultimately the maximum skidder ground speed. A controller is provided to pre-select the maximum gear into which the transmission may be placed to ultimately limit the maximum ground speed of the skidder so that the operator sets the forward speed in a binary fashion by depressing the foot pedal or hand operated device to a maximum output condition.
