Operating the Tractor Safely
TS290 --UN--23AUG88
You can reduce the risk of accidents by following these
simple precautions:
· Use your tractor only for jobs it was designed to perform,
for example, pushing, pulling, towing, actuating, and
carrying a variety of interchangeable equipment
designed to conduct agricultural work.
· This tractor is not intended to be used as a recreational
vehicle.
· Read this operator's manual before operating the
tractor and follow operating and safety instructions in
the manual and on the tractor.
· Follow operation and ballasting instructions found in the
operator's manual for your implements/attachments,
such as front loaders
· Make sure that everyone is clear of machine, attached
equipment, and work area before starting engine or
operation.
· Keep hands, feet, and clothing away from power-driven
parts
TS276 --UN--23AUG88
Driving Concerns
· Never get on or off a moving tractor. · Keep all children and nonessential personnel off tractors
and all equipment.
· Never ride on a tractor unless seated on a John Deere
approved seat with seat belt.
· Keep all shields/guards in place. · Use appropriate visual and audible signals when
operating on public roads.
· Move to side of road before stopping. · Reduce speed when turning, applying individual brakes,
or operating around hazards on rough ground or steep slopes.
· Couple brake pedals together for road travel. · Pump brakes when stopping on slippery surfaces.
Towing Loads
· Be careful when towing and stopping heavy loads.
Stopping distance increases with speed and weight of towed loads, and on slopes. Towed loads with or without brakes that are too heavy for the tractor or are towed too fast can cause loss of control.
· Consider the total weight of the equipment and its load. · Hitch towed loads only to approved couplings to avoid
rearward upset.
Parking and Leaving the Tractor
and securely engage park mechanism, including the park pawl and park brake. In addition, if tractor is left unattended, remove key.
· Leaving transmission in gear with engine off will NOT
prevent the tractor from moving.
· Never go near an operating PTO or an operating
implement.
· Wait for all movement to stop before servicing
machinery.
Common Accidents
Unsafe operation or misuse of the tractor can result in accidents. Be alert to hazards of tractor operation.
The most common accidents involving tractors:
· Tractor rollover · Collisions with motor vehicles · Improper starting procedures · Entanglement in PTO shafts · Falling from tractor · Crushing and pinching during hitching
· Before dismounting, shut off SCVs, disengage PTO,
stop engine, lower implements/attachments to ground

Safety Signs
Approaching Impassable Boundary
This message indicates a part of the vehicle and/or implement will intersect or has crossed an impassable boundary. This message will also appear when the vehicle path is very close to an impassable boundary because iTEC Pro adds a buffer to the physical width of implements (see Implement Setup in Machine and Implement Setup Section).
NOTE: The Impassable boundary message will not appear in the following conditions:
· iTEC Pro turn pattern is set to off. · AutoTrac is not active.
NOTE: The line showing the trajectory of the vehicle on the GS2/GS3 screen will turn RED whenever the vehicle or implement is expected to intersect an impassable boundary.

Introduction
Theory of Operation
intelligent Total Equipment Control (iTEC) Pro is a system which coordinates machine/implement functions and end turns. By knowing machine and implement location, field boundaries, and function sequences, iTEC Pro enables operators to automate many in-cab tasks. This automation allows operators to focus on equipment and task at hand and less on mechanics of operating equipment.
In order for the iTEC Pro system to perform this automation, the system needs to have several items set up on the GS2/GS3 display. These items include:
· Machine Setup: type, dimensions, offsets, and
connection type (hitch/drawbar)
· Implement Setup: type, dimensions, and offsets · Boundary Setup: exterior/interior and headland
boundaries where sequences and turns will be executed
· iTEC Pro Setup
- Sequence Setup: Definition of what vehicle functions will execute when a boundary is crossed. Example: first slow down then raise the implement
- Turn Setup - Boundary to Sequence Assignment: Assigning the
sequences to the different types of boundaries
· Other Setup, such as Guidance and StarFire
RM72004,000014B -19-18FEB13-1/1
To Make iTEC Pro Operate
· iTEC Pro software installed (GS2/GS3, vehicle) · iTEC Pro activation on display · AutoTrac activated on display (required for automated
headland turns)
· Vehicle, implement setup complete · AutoTrac, iTEC Pro setup complete · Boundaries properly defined, selected · iTEC Pro status pie indicating "enabled" state
· AutoTrac status pie indicating "enabled" state (required
for automated headland turns)
· StarFire setup complete
NOTE: iTEC Pro is not compatible with AutoTrac Universal.

Advanced Setup Tool is intended to simplify initial configuration of GS2/GS3 applications while also helping operators become familiar with settings required for full functionality. After using the tool, operators should be able to successfully start and run desired operations and also change settings.
Advanced Setup can be used to change individual settings as the operator progresses through day-to-day operations.
While using Advanced Setup, the operator can select which functions must be configured.
· Resources · Machine · Implement · Documentation · Guidance · Boundaries · iTEC Pro · Swath Control Pro
Select any combination of functions. If a function is dependent on other functions for the system to be fully operational, the system shall automatically select the
required functions and the operator will not be able to deselect those functions. For example, if the operator selected the Boundaries function, the Resources function would be automatically selected to force the operator to select a Client, Farm, and Field.
The functions that the operator selects will determine which pages will be included in Advanced Setup. Only screens associated with functions selected by the user shall be included.
For each function, there is a list of required fields that must be complete and valid before the system will work as expected. Red asterisks indicate required fields.
Based on the functions the operator has selected for setup, the GS2/GS3 applications shall determine which fields are required for successful setup and visually indicate those fields to the operator. Operator may progress through Advanced Setup without completing required fields, but system may not function correctly if required fields do not contain valid data.

GREENSTAR Softkey
9030 and 9R Wheel tractors do not make automatic turns as fast as a manual turn. Off-track errors may occur during automatic end-of-row turns. Errors are most significant during lightbulb turns while towing smaller implements. Minimize errors and maintain optimal guess row spacing by:
EQUIPMENT Softkey
· reducing machine speed during end-of-turn execution · using a turn pattern that allows for skip passes and
creation of simple turns
Contact your John Deere dealer for assistance with turn automation on 9030 and 9R Wheel tractors.
The iTEC Pro system is not approved for use when 9030 and 9R Wheel tractors pull air seeders with tow-behind air carts in situations that do not allow skipped tracks. Turn path accuracy and general field performance may not be acceptable with multiple-implement configurations unless the situation allows for at least one track to be skipped.
NOTE: The iTEC Pro system is not approved for use when 9030 and 9R Wheel tractors pull specific multiple-implement configurations.
Contact your John Deere dealer for assistance with turn automation on 9030 and 9R Wheel tractors when using multiple-implement configurations.

The turn radius is half the diameter as measured at the center of the rear axle of a row crop tractor, and the pivot point on tracks and 4WD tractors. Example: 8030 wheel tractors have a minimum turn radius of 6.1--6.7 m (20--22 ft.). Choose a number to start with and change as needed for accuracy. See scenarios in Turn Patterns and Types section for more information.
iTEC Pro will make turns based on the larger of the machine turn radius and the implement turn radius. Example: if the tractor's turn radius is 6.7 m (22 ft.), but the implement's turn radius is 7.6 m (25 ft.), iTEC Pro will make a 7.6 m (25 ft.) radius turn.
Turning Sensitivity--AutoTrac gain setting when the machine is in an automated turn. This is adjustable by the operator to improve performance (default 70). Lower sensitivities are less aggressive and higher sensitivities are more aggressive.

Implement Offsets
Implement Offsets--Used to define the actual implement position relative to the tractor. This is important for ensuring the implement is lined up to the field at the end of turns and in determining where the implement is for the Minimize Skips and Minimize Overlaps feature (see Change Settings on Machine tab).
PC11071 --UN--29FEB08
· In-line distance from connection point to front of
implement (A). For pull-type implements, think of this as the tongue. For more precision, it is actually the dimension from the pinbolt to the front side of where the work gets done (example: front ranks of field cultivator, seed drop point on a planter). For planters with a 2-point mount, measure from where the planter pivots just behind the 2-point.
· Working length of the implement (B). For ground
engagement tools, this is the distance from the front rank of sweeps or points to rear rank. On a standard planter or pull-type sprayer, this dimension would be 0the seed is dropped at the same point on every row and sprayer has nozzles at the same point along the boom. Dimension (A) would then need to extend to the location of the seed drop point or sprayer boom.
· Lateral distance from connection point to control point
of implement (C). This is the lateral distance from the center of the tractor to the center of the implement, which will be 0.0 for most common implements. This dimension is used to alert the operator to potential collisions. This is critical for proper end-turn performance and may need to be adjusted.
NOTE: Examples of equipment that will not be centered include mower-conditioners and most split-row planters with an even number of 15" rows, (example: 24R15 or 32R15) unless you have an adjustable hitch crossbar.
· In-line distance from connection point to control point

Change Widths--Used to enter implement width and track spacing for guidance. This value is also used to calculate total area when documenting the operation. Verify implement type, model, name, implement width and track spacing when changing implements. Implement width and track spacing are independent of each other.
NOTE: Implement width may come from controller on select controllers such as SeedStar.
Defining Implement Width and Track Spacing. Implement width and track spacing can be defined two ways: enter the working width of the implement, or enter the number of rows and the row spacing. To toggle between these two, press the (ft.)/(rows) button (A).
· Implement Width (ft.)--enter total implement working
width.
· Implement Width (rows)--enter number of rows and
the row spacing.
Track Spacing--Used in guidance for how far each pass is from the last pass. It is entered the same way as implement width. For "perfect" guess rows or rows between passes, the distance will be the same as implement width. To ensure overlap for tillage or spraying, or to account for some GPS drift, you may choose to make the track spacing less than the implement width.
It is sometimes larger than implement width. Example: The marker arms on a planter are wider than the working width of the implement.
IMPORTANT: Width measurements are used by the iTEC Pro system to help alert an operator of potential intersections between the implement and an impassable boundary. The operator still needs to be aware of potential collisions if there are times the implement is wider than the dimension entered (example: marker arm lowered). If markers are used in the field, add the width of both markers to ensure warnings of possible intersections.
NOTE: If end turns are turned OFF or parallel tracking is being used, Intersection Detection will not be displayed.
As a buffer to avoid obstacles, iTEC Pro will add additional physical width to each side of the implement to compensate for several things, one being GPS drift.

Boundary Type Description
NOTE: Accurate iTEC Pro operations require accurate boundary descriptions. Verify boundaries before operating iTEC Pro.
Available Boundary Types
· Exterior (Required)
- Exterior Headland (Required)
· Interior (Optional)
- Passable Interior
- Impassable Interior - Interior Headlands (Required if Impassable Interiors
are used)
Headlands are used to trigger sequences and end turns. Passable Interiors are also used to trigger sequences. When iTEC Pro is operating with AutoTrac and end turns, intersections with impassable boundaries are monitored and the operator is alerted ahead of time to allow evasive action, if necessary.

Boundaries Tab
NOTE: Boundaries need to be accurate for the iTEC Pro system to execute functions accurately on the ground.
PC16540 --UN--01FEB13
The BOUNDARIES tab allows you to record exterior field boundaries as well as interior and headland boundaries. Boundaries calculate acreage and are saved on the data card to be unloaded in John Deere's APEX desktop software. Headlands and other boundaries need to be accurate for iTEC Pro to properly perform its functions. For best accuracy, exterior boundaries should be driven.
In the HEADLAND INDICATOR check box, mark whether you want the indicator on or off. This will count down the distance to the next headland on the Guidance map.
Headland Boundary--Headlands will show on the Guidance View tab as dashed pink lines to show where the headlands exist in maps and perspective views. Only
Exterior Boundaries and Impassable Interior Boundaries can have a Headland Boundary. Headlands are required near the Exterior boundary, and around any Impassable Interior boundary, and these are what the distances in Sequences, Functions, and Turn Offsets are based off.
Headland Boundaries can either be driven or entered as an offset from the Exterior or Interior Boundary. iTEC Pro will execute sequences more accurately if the Headlands are created accurately.

4. Select HEADLAND SETTINGS to make adjustments to Row Heading, Offset X, and Offset Y. These are default settings for approximate heading of rows in the field and width of headlands on X and Y ends of field.
The heading that is entered does not need to be the exact heading. In the example, if the heading of your AutoTrac A-B line is 85 degrees, entering 90 degrees creates headlands on the east and west ends of the field. During tillage work, if the work is being done at 30 degrees from east and west, entering 120 degrees will give headlands on all sides of the field. In this case, Constant Offset headlands could also be used.
Efforts have been made to make the most logical headlands based on the way the field normally is farmed. If desired headlands are not coming out as expected, change the Row Heading to several angles close to the direction of travel. If still not satisfactory, a Driven Headland boundary will need to be recorded.
NOTE: Headlands will be created when the Row Heading is more than 15 degrees from any side of the field. Top and bottom headlands are calculated as offsets and may not be appropriate for all fields.
When using top and bottom headland offsets, the generated sidelines will prompt the operator to complete a turn.
Defaults for Offsets X and Y are twice the implement width, as entered from Machine or Implement pages. Width of each headland can be changed. Example: if
A--Row Heading B--X Offset
C--Y Offset
west end has thirty-two, 76.2 cm (30 in.) headland rows, and east end has forty-eight, 76.2 cm (30 in.) headland rows, enter 24.4 m (80 ft.) for X and 36.6 m (120 ft.) for Y.

For example, looking at the field in the screenshot, if the tractor is driving south along the side of the field, it will not cross the southern headland boundary line. Therefore, iTEC Pro will not
perform the desired sequence and will not turn around. If this is not desirable, the Headland Boundary should be created by using Top and Bottom Headlands or Driven Headlands.

Sequences
NOTE: Check sequence entries whenever machine operations or field conditions change. Adjust sequences after moving from one field to another or year-to-year even when used by the same machine. SCV hydraulic oil flow rates, 3-point hitch drop rates, and other outputs may have changed.
Sequences are a group of functions that perform when the implement crosses a headland or Interior Boundary. For instance, functions within Raise Planter sequence may include changing ground set speed, extending SCV1, extending SCV2, turning Diff Lock off, turning MFWD off, etc. Up to 20 functions can be entered for each sequence.
The Raise Planter sequence could be programmed to happen every time the planter enters a headland or Passable Interior boundary.
Name the sequence to include the implement. If a field cultivator is selected instead of a planter, name the sequence Raise FC instead of Raise Planter because functions within each sequence may be different (speed may be different, no markers on the field cultivator, etc.). Similarly, if two different tractors will be pulling the same implement, it may be beneficial to include tractor name or model in the sequence. That way, it will be known this is a sequence for that implement when an 8030 is being used instead of a 9030 tractor.

Associating Sequences to Boundaries
Once functions and sequences have been created, Headlands and Passable Interior Boundaries need to have a sequence assigned to them, both for entering and exiting these boundaries. The sequence for Enter Headlands may be the same as the one for Enter Passable Interiors, if desired, and the Sequence Offset may be the same or could be different. The same is true for Exiting.
NOTE: Entering an offset will affect all functions within the sequence. If you do not want all functions to change by the amount entered, leave the Sequence Offset at 0.0, and change only the distance for the individual functions.
Sequence Offsets are used if you need to fine-tune the distances where the sequence actually starts or stops. They shift function distances that were entered previously. For instance, if you want the implement to raise 0.6 m (2 ft.) sooner than it currently does at the headlands, enter a -0.6 m (-2 ft.) offset for Enter Headlands. If you want it to raise 0.6 m (2 ft.) later than it does, enter a 0.6 m (2 ft.) offset.
NOTE: There may be situations on angled Passable Interior boundaries where the implement needs to be in the ground on both sides of the boundary at the same time. This can happen when crossing narrow waterways with a wide implement at a steep angle. When set to Minimize Skips, the implement needs to stay lowered until the entire implement is into the waterway, but it cannot raise because the implement needs to be lowered for the other side of the waterway. The end result is both 'Raise' and 'Lower' sequences will be skipped. In this case, prepare to manually control operations (slow down, raise the marker, etc.).

Number of Skipped Tracks
NOTE: When using iTEC Pro on a 9030 or 9R Series wheel tractor with narrow track spacings, the tractor may not stay on the turn as desired. In the worst cases, AutoTrac may de-activate.
If desired, in low-accuracy applications (tillage), adjust the turn pattern to skip a track or two in alternate rows or set number of skipped tracks to 2 or 3 in first turn skip.
In high-accuracy applications (small planters), the ground speed may be slowed down at the beginning and end of the turn and/or the turn radius may be adjusted larger to allow better turn performance. The speed may be increased for the middle of the turn.
When the Turn Pattern is Alternate Rows (A), you will keep moving across the field. If the Number of Skipped Tracks (B) equals one, the track numbers you will follow would be track 0, 2, 4, 6, and so on. Set skipped tracks to zero to follow track 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.
For turn patterns of Alternate Rows and First Turn Skip, values of 0-10 can be entered. In Skip and Fill, the value will default to one and cannot be changed.
When the turn pattern is First Turn Skip, you will be working in "lands." Example: using the diagrams for First Turn Skip.
· Number of skipped tracks = 1, the track numbers you
will follow would be track 0, 2, 1, 4, 3, 6, etc.
· Number of skipped tracks = 3, the track numbers you
will follow would be track 0, 5, 1, 6, 2, etc. and finish

First Turn Skip When Number of Skips = 4
Enter the number of tracks you want the first turn to skip (in this case number of skips = 4). The field was started in the SW corner of the field. It will skip 4 tracks on the North end of the field (the first turn) in the diagram, and only 3 on the South end, going North again adjacent to the first
pass. When this `land' is complete, it will start the next `land' adjacent to the furthest pass already complete (The location of the tractor/implement in the diagram is in the first pass of this new `land'). Now the First Turn is on the South end of the field. This pattern repeats across the field.

Skips and Overlap
Minimize Skips
Minimize skips will ensure product coverage or ground engaging equipment extends into headlands or passable interior boundaries. It does this by knowing where the `zero point' of the implement is in relation to the headland. The zero point with minimize skips is the rear end of the implement (the back side of dimension B in implement offsets) when entering headlands and the front side of dimension B when exiting headlands. In the case of a field cultivator or disk, iTEC Pro will think the implement is at the headland when the rear end starts to cross into the headland. This setting may cause overlaps along these boundaries, especially when angled, but helps ensure there are not skips, such as planting into waterways or headlands.
Minimize Overlap
Minimize overlap will ensure product coverage or ground engaging equipment does not extend into headlands or passable interior boundaries. It does this by knowing where the `zero point' of the implement is in relation to the headland. The zero point with minimize overlap is the front end of the implement (the front side of dimension B in implement offsets) when entering headlands and the rear side of dimension B when exiting headlands. In the case of a field cultivator or disk, iTEC Pro will think the implement is at the headland when the front end starts to cross into the headland. This setting may cause skips along boundaries, especially when angled, but will help reduce overlapping areas, such as disking into a waterway.

Turn Confirmation
If the next turn needs to be changed, press A, B, or C, then press the OK button.
· Pressing Continue Straight will cause the tractor to
keep going straight. If the Continue Straight option is pressed, the corresponding "enter headland" sequence will not execute and the vehicle will not turn. Any subsequent sequences on the same pass will execute, but the next desired turn must be performed manually if iTEC Pro encounters another 'Enter Headland' transition before 20 seconds. If the next desired turn is after 20 seconds of exiting the headland, the Turn Confirmation indicator will be displayed and an automated turn may be completed.
· Press the left arrow button to increase the number of
tracks the turn will skip when turning to the left, or decrease the number of tracks the turn will skip when turning to the right.

NOTE: When working next to a headland, the vehicle may enter and exit the headland in the same pass. In this situation, continue straight may be selected on the turn confirmation page to continue on the current pass. The turn confirmation page will then not appear again unless the vehicle travels for 20 seconds without intersecting a border.

Approaching Impassable Boundary
This message indicates a part of the vehicle and/or implement will intersect or has crossed an impassable boundary. This message will also appear when the vehicle path is very close to an impassable boundary because iTEC Pro adds a buffer to the physical width of implements (see Implement Setup in Machine and Implement Setup Section).
NOTE: The Impassable boundary message will not appear in the following conditions:
· iTEC Pro turn pattern is set to off. · AutoTrac is not active.
NOTE: The line showing the trajectory of the vehicle on the GS2/GS3 screen will turn RED whenever the vehicle or implement is anticipated to intersect an impassable boundary.

Deactivating iTEC Pro
The operator can deactivate iTEC Pro at anytime by pushing the iTEC Pro On/Off button. If AutoTrac and iTEC Pro are both active, then any action that deactivates AutoTrac will also deactivate iTEC Pro. This means when operating iTEC Pro and AutoTrac together, the operator can deactivate both systems by taking control of the steering wheel.
When iTEC Pro deactivates, the system will not create new end-turn paths, execute sequences or check for intersections with impassable boundaries. If an end-turn has already been generated when the system deactivates, the end-turn will remain and the vehicle will guide along the turn if AutoTrac is active.
The behavior of a function aborting is as follows:
· Front and Rear Hitch--Stop movement · SCV--Stop flow · PTO--PTO off · MFWD-- Returns to state of switch · Differential Lock--Differential Lock off · Gear/Shift (non-IVT)--Stays in current gear
NOTE: If the operator manually executes a function while the sequence is executing, that function will not be aborted. Functions set to occur in the sequence after iTEC Pro deactivates will not be executed.
If iTEC Pro deactivates while a sequence is executing, the functions that have already occurred within that sequence will be aborted.

Helpful Tips and Adjustments
Turns
· If tractor is turning too soon, increase the End Turn
Offset (or create a positive number).
· If tractor is turning too late, decrease the End Turn
Offset (or create a negative number).
· Beginning of the turn is determined by the following
crossing the headland:
- Minimize Skips
The rear of the implement (dimensions A+B) when
entering headland.
The front of the implement (dimension A) when exiting
the headland.
- Minimize Overlap
The front of the implement (dimension A) when
entering headland.
The rear of the implement (dimensions A+B) when
exiting the headland.
· The system looks at the larger of the machine or
implement Turn Radius. If the smaller Turn Radius is
changed, there will be no change to the turn.
· Guess Row Accuracy for large implements
(approximately 12.2 m (40 ft) and larger)
- Pull type implement
If the guess row is too wide, decrease the Control Point. If the guess row is too narrow, increase the Control Point. - 3-point mounted implement Adjust the End Turn Offset or implement dimensions A+B to allow the tractor to be lined up on the AB line sooner.
· Guess Row Accuracy for small implements
(approximately 12.2 m (40 ft) and smaller) - Pull type implement
If the guess row is too wide, increase the Control Point. If the guess row is too narrow, decrease the Control Point. - 3-point mounted implement Adjust the End Turn Offset or implement dimensions A+B to allow the tractor to be lined up on the AB line sooner.
Sequences and Functions
· If happening too soon, increase the Function distance
or the Sequence Offset.
· If happening too late, decrease the Function distance or
the Sequence Offset.

4. Field
If multiple boundary regions overlap, iTEC Pro will treat the overlapping regions as a single region. The regions are prioritized in the following order:
If iTEC Pro detects overalapping boundariesif the implement is in two areas at once (in a headland and a passable boundary)iTEC Pro will prioritize them.
1. Impassable 2. Headland 3. Passable
For instance, if the implement is in both a Headland and an Impassable Interior Boundary, iTEC Pro will indicate an Impassable Interior Boundary.

2. Implement Turn Radius Versus Machine Turn Radius - iTEC Pro uses the largest of these two values to generate the end turn in the headlands. For example, the machine's turn radius of 7 m (23 ft.) would be used with the settings shown in "Extended Simple Turn" and "iTEC Pro Settings" figures. - Keep this in mind when trying to raise or lower the Turn Radius for tuning purposes. In the iTEC Pro Settings figures, no adjustment to the turn will be made by changing the Implement Turn Radius unless it is greater than 7 m (23 ft.).

3. Impassable Boundary Warning - Decrease end turn offset ("Decrease End Turn Offset" figure). - Decrease turn radius ("Decrease Turn Radius" figure). - Increase headland size ("Increase Headland Size" figure). - Skip tracks to create a "simple" turn ("Skip Tracks to Create a Simple Turn" figure).
4. Required Headland Size - If possible, use "Simple" turns. Use smallest turn radius (see "Simple Turn" and "Extended Simple Turn" figures). Skip enough tracks to obtain a "simple" turn (see "Skip Tracks to Create a Simple Turn" figure). - Use an End Turn Offset to shift the turn into the field (see "Decrease End Turn Offset" figure).
5. Tractor Off-track Error
NOTE: iTEC Pro end turns will be more consistent when the off-track error is minimized throughout the end turns, and especially near the end of the turn.

Troubleshooting
- If tractor is getting off-track in the middle of the turn (see point A in "End Turns" figure), increase the Turn Radius until the tractor is able to stay on track.
- If tractor is getting off-track at the beginning or end of the turn (see point B in "End Turns" figure), try decreasing the Turn Radius until the tractor is able to stay on track. If the Turn Radius is decreased too far, it may start to get off track in the middle of the turn. Decreasing the control point offset (D) will also create end turns that are easier for the tractor to track on at the start and end of the turns with pull type implements. However, this can result in undesirable guess row performance. An increased End Turn Offset may help eliminate a bad guess row.
6. Guess Rows at Headland Boundary (Drawn Implements) - For "simple" turns, increase the control point to widen guess rows and decrease the control point to narrow them. - For light bulb turns, increase the control point to narrow the guess rows and decrease to widen the guess rows. - Additionally, the End Turn Offset can be adjusted to improve guess row performance.
Simple Turn Example
A--Guess Row B--Add This Distance To End
Turn
C--Control Point Too Small D--Control Point Too Large

7. Inconsistent Headland Implement Action - Slower speeds while approaching and crossing the headland will result in better implement action (raise/lower the implement) accuracy and end-turn performance. - Multiple speed and/or gear changes can be configured in each sequence as shown in the Enter Headland and Exit Headland figures.

8. Implement Action Location - Adjust the Function Distance for controlling implement action (raise/lower the implement) in the Setup Sequences to optimize where the implement will go in and out of the ground. Sequence Offset may be changed instead of Function Distance, if desired, but this will shift each Function Distance by that amount. - Changing the machine speed and the SCV or 3-point hitch flow rate will also affect where the implement goes in and out of the ground. - Example: You notice the planter should come out of the ground 1.5 m (5 ft.) earlier when entering the headland and you are using the settings in the Enter Headland and iTEC Pro Sequences figures. Change the SCVI function offset (see Enter Headland figure) to -1.5 m (-5 ft.) or change the Sequence Offset (see iTEC Pro Sequences figure) to -1.5 m (-5 ft.).
