Checking the System Accuracy
Machine & Bucket Calibration Check for Reach
• Make sure that the surface on the ground is fairly level from front to back.
• Place the bucket on a solid spot far away from the front of the machine with the bucket fully open.
• Lock the center tooth on the main working screen by taping on the center tooth on the bucket symbol on the left hand side of the screen.
• Mark the spot on the ground where the bucket’s center is placed.
• Enable the Reach function.
• Confirm the axis alignment.
• Set “0” as the reach on the Control Box.
• Move the bucket as close to the cab as possible. Do NOT rotate the cab!
• Close the bucket to an approximate floating position.
• Place the bucket tip/edge on the ground with the center tooth/blade touching the ground.
• Measure from the reference spot up to the center of the bucket tip/blade.
• Compare the measurement with the reading on the screen.
• Being 1/3 inch (1 cm) off is fine.
