Autodig System - The autodig system is designed to perform the operations of a loading cycle of an aggregate mix with minimal effort by the operator. Loading this type of material is repetitive. A high level of skill is required to maintain a consistent level of productivity during such loading cycles. This feature will fully load a bucket at consistent loading times. Each Autodig material mode setting is programmed with the appropriate transmission speed for loading various types of material.The lift kickout for the Autodig System is controlled in the Monitoring System. On the menu in the Monitoring System, navigate to Settings/Implement/Autodig Kickout set. Move the lift arms to the desired height. Press the "OK/Select" button on the display.Operating Modes of the Autodig System
The Autodig Material Mode Increase and Decrease buttons allow the operator to select different settings for different types of material for loading. In order to load light material, use the lower numbered material modes. In order to load heavy material, use the higher numbered material modes. Intermediate positions are available. Operator discretion is advised.In order to turn off the autodig system, repeatedly press the Autodig Operation Mode button until no indicators are illuminated.Automatic Pile Detection Mode
The autodig system will be set to the automatic pile detection mode upon initial activation. This means that the loading cycle will automatically begin when the bucket contacts the pile. The indicator will light when the autodig system is in the automatic pile detection mode. The operator does not need to move the bucket controls during automatic loading. Lower the bucket to the ground. Drive the machine into the pile. Do not move any of the controls. The autodig system will automatically load the bucket. The machine can be driven to the hauling unit, when the bucket is fully tilted back.Operator Triggered Mode
