An engine idle control method of an off highway vehicle. The method including the steps of: detecting a static load on the engine; detecting a dynamic load on the engine; determining if the static load is below a predetermined static level; determining if the dynamic load is less than a predetermined range; and engaging an auto-idle feature dependent upon both of the determining steps being true.

Idle return system and method for an off highway vehicle

A ride control system uses speed, pressure, hand throttle, foot throttle and seat position information associated with a tractor-loader-backhoe to determine when to engage and disengage the ride control system for the tractor-loader-backhoe. Once the ride control system is engaged, the ride control system can be disengaged in response to either an operator command or a measured speed of the tractor-loader-backhoe being below a predetermined speed.
