I have just had a Kubota M7172 KVT premium delivered and i just cant get my head around it . On the farm we presently have Newholland auto commands, power commands, range commands as well as Bateman sprayers and they all operate slightly differently but the principles are relatively straight forward.
I really want the Kubota to fit into our system but at the minute we are having operating issues
The problems are all in relation to the software operating the vario transmission
1/ to increase the speed in reverse you push forward ( is it just me or is this crazy?)
2/ the command stick has a 2 second delay before anything happens
3/ once you select a cruise speed and you pull the command stick back to slow down for a bumpy part of the field then the cruise speed slows leaving you no cruise to resume to
4/ If you want to speed up slightly in cruise for example if you are baling and the sward is light and you want to go faster then resume your cruise, the cruise speed increases as you go faster so you have no set cruise to return to
5/ Kubota have said that the tractor has to be taken out of cruise if you are going to alter the speed at which you are travelling and since the command stick has a two second delay the only way you can do this is to change to petal mode to speed up or slow down
IM STRUGGLING
Can anyone PLEASE help as its decision time !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
