D. Finally, let the boom width display cycle through the
boom sections until it shows “Boom C”. When the
“C” width is displayed, set it to the normal operating
width of the entire sprayer, in inches (meters), using
the INC./DEC. switch.
E. The boom width is now set. Turn all booms ON and
return to the OPERATE mode. The new total boom
width will be displayed in feet (meters). If this does
not agree with your total applicator width, check the
individual boom widths, ( steps B and C).
Record these calibration numbers

General Considerations and Initial Calibration
Numbers
T
he control console must be calibrated for the
ground speed sensor installed to ensure accurate
application rates. The procedure involves physi-
cally measuring an accurate distance along a road or
field, driving the vehicle through that distance, math-
ematically comparing the distance computed by the
control console to the actual measured distance, and
making any necessary adjustments to the distance
calibration number. Follow the recommended procedure
below to ensure accuracy of operation.
The distance calibration should be checked periodically
to maintain its accuracy. This is especially important if
the sensor mounting has become loose or has been
repositioned, or if the tires have been changed.
Use the following initial calibration numbers. It is
important to field calibrate the distance sensor to
insure maximum accuracy!

Boom widths are
entered in inches in
the US system. For
example; for a liquid
boom with 7 nozzles
on 30" spacings, enter
210 for that boom.
There is no need to
convert to feet, the
control console does
that automatically
when it is switched
back to the Operate
Mode. (In metric, all
widths are entered in
meters.)
