VALVE CALIBRATION
A valve calibration sets the machine hydraulic system parameters and
should be performed for best results. Each control channel that is enabled
requires a valve calibration.
NOTE:
Verify disc speed high limit is
set correctly. Valve calibration
will try and obtain the high disc
speed.

CHANNEL ON
The Channel On button appears on this screen only if the channel is turned
off. The channel must be ON before performing a valve calibration. Press
the Channel On button to turn the channel on.
When the START key is engaged, the machine will become
operational. All necessary precautions must be taken to ensure
user safety. Failure to practice all necessary caution may result in
serious injury or death.
Hoppers are assumed to be empty for this calibration. If they are
loaded, material will be dispensed onto the ground.
