Abstract: A method is provided for controlling a machine having a continuously variable transmission travelling on a ground surface. The method receives signals indicative of an inclination of the ground surface and a payload carried by the machine through an inclination sensor and a payload sensor respectively. The method further includes determining a retarding capability of the machine. The method determines a maximum allowable operating speed for the machine based at least on the inclination of the ground surface, a mass of the machine, the payload carried by the machine and the retarding capability of the machine.

Abstract: A method is provided for controlling a machine having a continuously variable transmission travelling on a ground surface. The method includes receiving signals indicative of a speed of the machine and an inclination angle of the surface on which the machine is travelling. The method further includes receiving a shift signal indicative of a desired change in a direction of travel of the machine. The method selectively activates at least one supplementary retarding device based at least on one of the inclination angle and the speed of the machine.
