To calculate the Wheel Factor, place a mark on the ground alongside the sprayer wheel.
Press Reset if the pulses are not on zero.
Drive along steadily in a straight line and watch the pulses accumulate. As the wheel sensor
passes past the magnet a pulse is counted or every pulse from the radar.
After approx. 20 metres (60 feet), stop and put another mark on the ground alongside of the
same wheel.
Measure the distance using a tape measure.
Enter this distance, by pressing the ‘Calculator Icon’ next to the ‘Enter Distance’.
Wheel Factor is automatically calculated.
