Adjusting the Boom Cal
The boom cal for the AccuFlow system can be calculated with the following formula:
Number of Applicator Knives x Spacing in inches [centimeters] = Implement Width
(EQ 1)
For Example:
If the implement has 16 knives spaced 30 inches apart, the calculated implement width is equal to 480 inches.
Enter 480 as the boom cal on the control console.
Adjusting the Speed Cal
Calculate the speed cal according to the console’s Installation and Operation manual. No adjustments to the
speed cal are required for the AccuFlow system.
