Abstract: An agricultural vehicle includes a chassis, a header carried by the chassis, an operator cab carried by the chassis, wheels carried by the chassis, at least one wheel driver coupled to at least one of the wheels and configured to drive the at least one coupled wheel at a wheel drive speed, a control handle placed in the operator cab that is displaceable from a zero speed position to a maximum speed position, and a controller operably coupled to the at least one wheel driver. The controller is configured to receive a header type signal indicating a header type of the header and output a resolution signal to the at least one wheel driver to define the maximum speed amount based at least partially on the received header type signal.

Abstract: An agricultural vehicle configured for traveling in a driven-wheel-leading mode and a caster-wheel-leading mode. The agricultural vehicle includes a first driven wheel and a second driven wheel, a caster axle, a first caster wheel and a second caster wheel, and a steering system. The steering system includes a first steering actuator connected in between the caster axle and the first caster wheel, a first sensor connected to the caster axle, and a controller operably connected to the first steering actuator and the first sensor. The controller is configured for actuating the first steering actuator to steer the first caster wheel in the driven-wheel-leading mode and the caster-wheel-leading mode.

Abstract: An agricultural baler towable by a vehicle that includes a frame and a baler hydraulic system. The baler hydraulic system includes a plurality of hydraulically operated subsystems, a plurality of hydraulic subsystem lines being fluidly connected to the plurality of hydraulically operated subsystems, and a hydraulic manifold fluidly connected to the plurality of hydraulic subsystem lines and configured for connecting to the vehicle hydraulic system. The agricultural baler also includes an electrical processing circuit operably connected to the hydraulic manifold and configured for switching the hydraulic manifold for connecting at least one hydraulic subsystem line of the plurality of hydraulic subsystem lines to the vehicle hydraulic system.

Abstract: An agricultural vehicle includes a chassis (16), a lift arm (18) movably coupled to the chassis (16), a lift actuator (21) coupled to the lift arm (18), a header (14) coupled to the lift arm (18), and a controller (120) operably coupled to the lift actuator (21). The controller (120) is configured to: receive a header type signal corresponding to a header type of the header; define a lift height limit of the header based at least partially on the received header type signal, the lift height limit being a first height limit when a first header type signal is received or a second height limit when a second header type signal is received; and output a lift signal to the lift actuator (21) to vertically displace the header (14). Header vertical displacement is limited to the first height limit if the first header type signal is received or the second height limit if the second header type signal is received.

Abstract: A steering system for an agricultural vehicle that includes a steering wheel, a steering wheel sensor operably connected to the steering wheel, a drive selector having a forward position, a neutral position, and a reverse position, an actuating device configured for being operably connected to the steerable wheels of the agricultural vehicle, and an electronic control unit operably connected to the steering wheel sensor, the drive selector, and the actuating device. The electronic control unit is configured for selectively preventing a rotation of the steering wheel from steering the steerable wheels in the neutral position of the drive selector.
