Abstract: A power machine can include operator input devices and a control system configured to command movement of actuators based on operator inputs received from the operator input devices. Movement of one or more of the actuators can be commanded based on input at one or more of the operator input devices and a response curve selected from a plurality of different response curves. Movement of one or more of the actuators can be based on a selected control mode for the power machine that corresponds to a selected control-function mapping of the operator input devices to the one or more actuators. A lift arm can be variously controlled to execute automatic or other operations. An excavator can be operated in a sustained-speed travel mode. Actuation of a bucket or other implement can be implemented based on signals from a material sensor.

Abstract: A frame and method for forming a frame to mount a slew bearing to an undercarriage of a work machine that eliminates a machining process. The frame is formed of a single metallic plate. The metallic plate includes a vertical support portion having a first support leg and a second support leg. The metallic plate also includes a substantially planar top surface portion that couples the first support leg to the second support leg. A plurality of spaced apart slew bearing receiving apertures are formed in the substantially planar top surface portion.

Abstract: A compact excavator includes a base frame, an upper frame and first and second track assemblies supporting the base frame. The compact excavator also includes a primary implement assembly coupled to the upper frame and a secondary implement assembly. The secondary implement assembly includes a lift arm assembly pivotally coupled to the base frame and an implement coupler pivotally coupled to the lift arm assembly. The implement coupler is configured to latch an implement to the lift arm assembly.
