  • Patent number: 10167614
    Abstract: A method for controlling the operation of at least one hydraulic component of a work vehicle may generally include storing, with a computing device, a first electro-hydraulic setting and a second electro-hydraulic setting for the hydraulic component. The first electro-hydraulic setting may be associated with at least one of a pre-defined speed setting or a pre-defined sensitivity setting. The second electro-hydraulic setting may be associated with at least one of an operator-defined speed setting or an operator-defined sensitivity setting. In addition, the method includes receiving an input associated with an operator's selection of the first electro-hydraulic setting or the second hydraulic setting and controlling the operation of the hydraulic component in accordance with the first electro-hydraulic setting or the second electro-hydraulic setting based on the operator's selection.

  • Patent number: 9593469
    Abstract: A method for controlling a work vehicle based on a monitored tip condition of the work vehicle may generally include determining, with a computing device, a combined center of gravity for the work vehicle based at least in part on an external load applied to a loader arm of the work vehicle, determining a tip-related state of the work vehicle based on a location of the combined center of gravity relative to a pivot point defined between a tire of the work vehicle and a driving surface for the work vehicle and automatically performing a corrective action to counteract vehicle tipping when it is determined that the work vehicle is in a tipping state.
