ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling the operation of a dredging apparatus provided with a cutting tool according to changes in at least one parameter such as soil resistance, comprises performing a working stroke with the cutting tool, measuring that parameter during that one stroke, recording the measured parameter as a function of the distance covered during that one working stroke, and regulating the hauling speed during the following working stroke according to that function. In this way, maximum permissible hauling speed can be achieved without overloading.
