Wheel Base
This measurement is only required for vehicles with two axles, the GeoSteer system needs to know the distance between the
front and rear axle. This distance is the vehicle’s Wheel Base. Use a tape measure to measure the distance between the two
axles and then enter that value into the Display.
Note: Always measure both sides of the vehicle and use the average of the two measurements.
Note: The units of measure shown in the AutoSteer Setup pages are configured on the Display side and passed to the GeoSteer
menus. Refer to your Display Operator’s Manual for instructions on how to set the units of measure.
Note: Be sure to verify that the measurement entered is in the same units that the display is expecting. The expected unit of
measurement is shown to the right of the data input box.
Note: This measurement should be accurate to within 2 inch (5.0 cm).
