A. Set the control console switches to the following
settings:
1. Power ON
2. Mode Selector SETUP
3. Display Selector Distance
The display shows the current distance calibration
value.
B. Use the INC./DEC. switch to enter the initial
distance calibration number suggested.
You can now perform the distance calibration.
Distance Calibration Procedure
The following procedure is recommended by MIDWEST
TECHNOLOGIES for establishing an accurate distance
calibration. NOTE: All boom switches should remain
OFF during the entire procedure.
A. Fill the vehicle 1/2 full of material (unless it is a pull
type unit with the speed sensor mounted on the tow
vehicle), to approximate average load conditions.
B. Measure a known distance of at least 400 ft. in a
field or roadway (preferably in terrain similar to that
being treated). A longer distance, allows for a more
accurate calibration.
C. Record the current distance cal. #, which can be
viewed using the switch settings shown in the
“G
ENERAL C ONSIDERATIONS AND I NITIAL C ALIBRATION
N UMBERS ” section above. For this example assume
an initial cal. # of 760.
D. Move the vehicle to the starting point of the
measured distance.
E. Reset the distance accumulator to zero (see page 2-
11)
F. Drive the vehicle to the other end of the measured
distance at a speed of between five and ten miles per
hour. Distance will accumulate on the display.
