WHAT'S REGENERATION IN TIER 4 MACHINES?
- Newer machines have filters that catch soot produced by the engine
- These filters have self-cleaning abilities called regeneration
- Regeneration uses heat to oxidize soot into gasses that leave the filter
- It's a normal part of running machines equipped with diesel particulate filters and rarely gets in the way of operating
HOW TO PROPERLY IDLE & SHUT DOWN
- If you're going to idle for more than a minute or two
- In a tracked machine, all lock levers in the lock position and throttle dial at minimum
- In a wheeled machine, transmission in neutral, parking brake applied and accelerator pedal released
- This is the safest way
- It also helps the machine optimize regeneration
- If you're going to shut down, let the machine cool off for 5 minutes before turning the key
IF YOU'VE GOT QUESTIONS
- Check out the Pocket & Keychain Cards
