Re: RK55HC - Automatic DPF Regeneration Experience

I have almost 300 hours ...Mine has regened about 6 times. ...No issues with the regen or the tractor.

Have you done a stationary regen yet?

No, I have not. I have been able to keep working when it called for the automatic regen and everything seems to work fine. We have had to do the stationary one every so often on the forklifts at work. They are Hyster forklifts with Kubota diesels in them. It is the nature of the way the forklift operates. A lot of low rpm work loading lumber. The engine just does not get run hard enough, long enough to generate the heat. On those we just set the parking brake and hit the button. The engine picks up rpms and does it's thing. On my RK I can run the rpms up while I am working it and it has done fine with the auto regen.
