3x20 series Cruise question

[orlo]

Hi:

I do plan on getting the automotive +/- control but I don't have it now.

My question is this. I noticed yesterday that the cruise switch has three positions: Off, On, and a momentary position on the ON side. Once I engage it if I press the momentary side the tractor will slow down an increment (was about .5mph yesterday). I actually like this feature since I use it to 'slow' down rather than just turning off the cruise which just about skids the rear wheels unless I can exactly match the pedal setting.

I thought it might be a 'coast', or 'reset' but it only slows down a little per push and doesn't seem to slow down more if you hold the button (I need to experiment more...)

I can't find this documented anywhere. Does anyone know if this is an 'official' feature of it it's just some odd behavior that's with the cruise.


Thanks,

When you get the automotive cruise upgrade kit you will see that the new switch has cruise "set" and the "-" or slow down symbol in the same position. That tells me the same input to the computer on the tractor does both functions. Therefore you already have a "limited free preview" of automotive cruise on board already.

Wow. Can't believe I never noticed that.

Thanks for the tip guys!
