<p>When operating a work machine such as a loader-backhoe, fuel consumption, pollution and noise can be decreased by reducing engine speed below a throttle setting when the backhoe is idled for a predetermined period of time. Engine speed is reduced by a control system including an electronic control module having an engine speed reduction algorithm. When the control module determines that a seat assembly that is rotatably mounted to the work machine body is in a forward, loader-facing position, the engine speed reduction algorithm is inactive. When the electronic control module determines that the seat assembly in a rearward backhoe -facing position, the algorithm is active. By basing the activation and deactivation of the algorithm on the seat assembly position, the algorithm will only be active when the backhoe is operable.</p> |
