Every time I read about the regen process it makes me cringe. I can't believe manufacturers can't come up with something better than letting a tractor sit there for 30 mins wide open. Idiot tree huggers.
I’ve only operated one machine that was equipped with that garbage but what you describe is far from accurate. It revved to about 1800 or didn’t rev at all if your were already above that rpm. Definitely not “wide open”. And you continued working as normal. If it wasn’t for the indicator you’d probably never notice. You didn’t have to take a 30 minute coffee break and wait for it to finish the cycle.
