Abstract
A computer-controlled method of controlling the speed of an agricultural harvester load that is coupled to an agricultural harvester engine by a power transmitting arrangement having various output speeds. The method includes the steps of electronically receiving a desired new load speed from an operator when the engine is operating at an initial engine speed, and electronically driving the power transmitting arrangement through a sequence of the various output speeds until the actual speed of the agricultural harvester load and the actual speed of the agricultural harvester engine are in the same ratio to each other as the desired new load speed and the initial engine speed.
