6. Set Sensor zero position default:
a. Ensure foot pedal is fully released.
b. Read % Sensor Voltage (Figure 35).
Figure 35. Start Stroke Sensor Calibration
c. Round value to nearest percent and enter in CALB
POINT 1 DEFAULT.
d. Press "Download" button to update value in MCU.
7. Set Sensor full position default:
a. Have an operator fully depress pedal and hold at
full blade speed.
b. Read % Sensor Voltage.
c. Round value to nearest percent and enter in CALB
POINT 2 DEFAULT.
d. Press "Download" button to update value in MCU.
8. The operator must be on the unit to drive and stroke
the cylinder. Have a second person press the “START”
button and indicate to the operator what the prompts
are on the screen. The unit will be run from no stroke
to fully stroked during this calibration.
9. After calibration sequence is completed, click "EXIT".
10. Once calibrated, the second person must move pedal
thru range and the operator ensures stroke follows and
calibrated signal moves from 0 to 100%.
MACHINE SETUP AND CALIBRATION
PITCH SETUP
Prior to pitch setup, check and make sure that the following
are in excellent condition to ensure eventual proper blade
pitch synchronization and proper blade flatness.
Blade condition - check for no excessive wear, new
blades preferred
Trowel arm bushings
Pitch bolt adjustment for flatness
Pitch bolt head for excessive wear
Wear plate
Thrust plate bearing and bushing - must lubricate
Yoke for excessive wear
Flatten Blades
1. Adjust blade pitch adjustment bolts as necessary to
ensure machine operates smoothly (Figure 36).
Figure 36. Blade Pitch Adjustment
CAUTION
Machine movement will occur during this step. Ensure
machine is secure or operator is present in seat. All
guards should be in place. Keep fingers, hands, hair,
and clothing away from all moving parts to prevent
injury.
