Control Channel Calibration Screen - Liquid Flow
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 should have material for this calibration and material will
dispense onto the ground during the calibration.
To perform the Control Channel Valve Calibration:
1. Move the implement to the “raised” position.
2. Apply the tractor brakes and lock in the applied position.
3. Put the transmission in “park” or in a locked, neutral position.
4. Start the tractor and engage PTO if used to drive the hydraulic system.
