Machine Element Lengths are a Little Bit Off After Calibration (cont.)
• Extension poles used:
• Check their length screwed together. They should be 3.087 ft (37.05 in, 94.1 cm).
• If you find a different length, you will need to change the preset value in the Machine Parameters. The element lengths & offset angles
will get re-calculated automatically.
• For long reach machines, or any machine that has extra long elements, we recommend NOT to use the extension tubes. Use a laser
pointer setup with a distance of at least 6 ft. (2 m) between the two levels.
• Extension poles not used:
• Make sure that the elevation difference between the low & high laser pointer level has been measured accurately AND entered into the
Control Box accordingly. Make sure the Unit Length is correct as well.
• For long reach machines, or any machine that has extra long elements, we recommend NOT to use the extension tubes. Use a laser
pointer setup with a distance of at least 6 ft. (2 m) between the two levels.
• Magnetic target tube:
• Make sure the magnetic target tube was attached to the correct bucket pivot point.
• Try to always shoot the same LOCATION on the target tube to avoid an error due to a tilted target tube.
Bad Bucket Calibration using the Automatic Procedure
• Open/Close view not correct:
• Make sure that the sensor SIDE detection selected the correct Sensor side.
