Using AutoBoom™
The AutoBoom feature, used in conjunction with Viper Pro, adjusts the height of booms automatically. Using
the machine hydraulics, the AutoBoom parallel hydraulic system always keeps the hydraulic valves open,
gently balancing the hydraulic cylinders and allowing the booms to descend or elevate effortlessly.
There are two AutoBoom systems that can be controlled by Viper Pro:
PowerGlide Plus AutoBoom utilizes gauge wheels to maintain optimum boom height while state-of-the-art
hydraulics are used to maintain constant hydraulic pressure in the lift cylinders. PowerGlide Plus systems are
typically used in pre-emergent applications.
UltraGlide AutoBoom uses state-of-the-art ultrasonic sensors, instead of the gauge wheels, to gauge the
distance to the ground. UltraGlide systems can be used in both pre and post emergent applications.
Note: Terrain conditions and the machine’s hydraulic system will dictate the actual speeds that can be
achieved. Typically, rougher and more varied field terrain require slower AutoBoom application
speeds.
‘Calibration Required’ will display in the AutoBoom area of the main screen when AutoBoom is initially
installed.
