Calibrating Wheel Speed Sensor

NOTE: Proper wheel speed calibration is important for accurate spray rate. Set calibration for average field conditions for each field.

1. Fill the solution tank half full of water or solution.

2. Measure a 122 m (400 ft) course with tape measure on flat terrain that is most typical of field conditions (loose, medium, hard-packed).

3. Mark both beginning and end of course with markers that are visible from cab.

4. Allow enough room at each end of course for sprayer to travel entire course without speeding up or slowing down.

5. Select the desired speed range (LOW OR HIGH) which spraying will most likely occur.

6. Press "SETUP" to display SETUP menu.

7. Press "A" to setup sprayer.

8. Press "PAGE" to display sprayer SETUP Page 2.

9. Press "B" to calibrate sprayer.

10. Press "C" for Wheel Speed Sensor.

11. Verify that calibration value is within calibration range. Calibration value range is 12-20.

12. If calibration value is not within range, enter a value within range.

13. Start driving somewhere before beginning of the course and reach speed at which spraying will most likely occur.

14. While maintaining that speed, press "C" to turn wheel counter ON when the sprayer reaches the beginning of the course.

15. Keep constant speed over the course, and when sprayer reaches the end marker, press "C" to turn counter OFF.

16. Record calibration value that appears on line E.

17. Repeat steps 13-15 and record calibration values.

NOTE: Drive the course twice in both directions.

18. Average the four calibration values.

19. Press "E", enter calibration average, and press "E" again.

20. To verify calibration value, measure the course with the distance counter. (See OPERATING DISTANCE COUNTER in this section.)

21. If the "Distance" is anything more or less than 120-123 m (395-405 ft), refine the previous wheel calibration number as follows:

Wheel Calibration Number x Recorded distance ÷ by 122 m (400 ft) = New Wheel Calibration Number

22. Enter new wheel calibration number.

23. Repeat Steps 20 and 21 if necessary.

Calibration value ranges: 12-20
