Use your Next Gen monitor to find these convenient shortcuts: 

• Auto shift chooses the best gear for your operating conditions. 
• Traction control uses GPS and tractor load sensors to sense if your dozer is slipping its tracks. If it is, traction control will automatically detorque to reduce track slip. 
• Stable Blade smooths out your blade when in manual grading applications. 
• AutoCarry™ picks up the blade if your machine starts to slip when used with Cat Grade with 3D. 
• Fan purge reverses the engine fan to purge debris.  

This video provides more details about these shortcuts.
