One method may include adjusting a first operating parameter of a digging implement of the vehicle; advancing the digging implement to a digging location; engaging the digging implement with a diggable medium located at the digging location; determining a vehicle operating parameter; upon the vehicle operating parameter exceeding a threshold, adjusting the first operating parameter of the digging implement of the vehicle; advancing the digging implement of the vehicle; upon the vehicle operating parameter exceeding a second predetermined threshold, adjusting the first operating parameter and a second operating parameter of the digging implement of the vehicle; upon the second operating parameter reaching a third predetermined threshold, withdrawing the digging; upon withdrawing the digging implement beyond the digging location, adjusting the first operating parameter of the digging implement of the vehicle; and unlocking the steering mechanism of the vehicle.

Pile approach assist

A method for automatically controlling vehicle speeds of a track-based work vehicle may generally include receiving, with a computing device, one or more signals associated with an operating temperature for a track component of a track assembly of the track-based work vehicle, comparing, with the computing device, the operating temperature for the track component to a predetermined temperature threshold defined for the track component and automatically limiting, with the computing device, a vehicle speed of the track-based work vehicle when the operating temperature for the track component exceeds the predetermined temperature threshold.

System and method for automatically controlling vehicle speed based on track-related temperatures of a work vehicle

A method for controlling a multi-axle work vehicle based on axle loading may generally include monitoring a load associated with loads transmitted through a pivot pin of a track assembly of the work vehicle, wherein the track assembly is configured to be rotatably coupled to an engine of the work vehicle via an axle assembly. In addition, the method may include estimating an axle load applied through the axle assembly based on the monitored load and providing a control output for the work vehicle based on the estimated axle load.

System and method for controlling a multi-axle work vehicle based on axle loading

A method for automatically controlling vehicle speeds of a track-based work vehicle may include monitoring, with a computing device, a load transmitted through a pivot pin of a track assembly of the work vehicle and determining, with the computing device, a speed limit setting for the work vehicle based on the monitored load, wherein the speed limit setting is associated with maintaining an operating temperature of a track of the track assembly below a predetermined temperature threshold. In addition, the method may include automatically limiting, with the computing device, a vehicle speed of the work vehicle based on the determined speed limit setting.

System and method for controlling the speed of a track-driven work vehicle based on monitored loads to avoid track overheating

A method for enhancing the performance of a work vehicle may generally include storing a reference transmission torque and a reference transmission speed for a transmission of the work vehicle. At least one of the reference transmission torque or the reference transmission speed may be determined based at least in part on drivetrain life data associated with at least one drivetrain component of the work vehicle. In addition, the method may include determining a current transmission speed for the transmission, determining a transmission output torque limit for the transmission based on the current transmission speed, the reference transmission torque and the reference transmission speed and controlling an engine of the work vehicle such that a transmission output torque of the transmission does not exceed the transmission output torque limit while the transmission is being operated at the current transmission speed.
