REGENERATION
Regeneration is the term given to the process that cleans the DPF. The DPF is cleaned by substantially
increasing the temperatures inside it which in turn burns away the soot build-up on the filter. There are
several types of Regeneration:
Automatic Regeneration:
Parked Regeneration:
Manual Regeneration:

SWITCH POSITIONS

There are two switches for managing the 'DPF Regeneration system':
The switch shown at the top of the photograph switches the 'Automatic Regeneration System' on and
off. If the forward most end of the switch is depressed (as indicated by the arrow) then 'Automatic
Regeneration' is selected. If the back end of the switch is depressed, then 'Automatic Regeneration'
is turned off (Inhibited).
Note:
'Automatic Regeneration On' should always be selected, unless the conditions are extremely
dry and a risk of a ground fire exists, in which case it should be switched to 'Automatic Regeneration
Off'.
This switch is used to activate a 'Parked Regeneration' if 'Automatic Regeneration' has either been
turned off due to a potential fire risk, or if the automatic system has not been able to cope with
keeping the DPF clean on its own.
The DPF is cleaned automatically as the machine is operated.
The DPF is cleaned only when the operator requests it.
The DPF is cleaned by a Kubota Engine Specialist.
