Abstract:
In accordance with an example embodiment, a method of operating a work vehicle with an ejector body may include receiving a position signal indicative of a position of the work vehicle, receiving a target profile indicative of a target topography for an area, receiving an ejection command at a controller and entering the controller into an ejection mode based on the ejection command, and controlling, with the controller, in the ejection mode, at least one of a speed of the work vehicle and a speed of an ejector included in the ejector body based on the position signal and the target profile, to spread a load of material from the ejector body onto a ground surface.
