ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling an automatic bucket control system during loading of a work implement of a work machine is disclosed. The method includes the steps of determining when the work implement engages a pile of material, initiating the automatic bucket control system in response to the work implement engaging the pile of material, determining a ground speed of the work machine, and generating a lift command based upon the ground speed. After fully engaging the material, the system may further adjust tilt commands and/or lift commands based upon a monitored crowd factor to control operation of the work implement.
