Fundamental principles of mating attachments or drawn
equipment electronically and hydraulically to AGCO combines
and AGCO tractors, along with correct software downloads will
be the basis of this course. Concepts such as CAN bus diagnosis,
ECV and ICV calibration, header compatibility and hydraulic flow
requirements will be developed. Students will also be able to
determine proper harness and hose configurations and basic
operating characteristics for these types of equipment. Students
will be taught how to utilize available technical information from
both service and sales manuals, as well as compatibility guides.
In depth utilization of the EDT and other electronic resources will
aid students in the lab exercises. In field diagnosis of operating
problems with planting and harvest equipment and the ability to
determine a course of action to remedy the situation will be the
elements of this course.
