5.4 Setting up the sensor arm
Before starting paving, the sensor
arm must be set, with the grade
control system, to its reference
(cable, kerb, etc.).
Sensing should be carried out in the
area of th auger.
- Swivel the sensor arm (2) over the
reference.
- Use the following options to adjust
the sensor arm precisely:
- After loosening the clamping bolts (3), the sensor arm length can be set up.
- The sensing height can be set by loosening the clamping bolts (4).
- Adjustment of the lateral sensing angle is possible at the lock (5).
- Height adjustment for analogue grade sensors is carried out by means of a
crank(6). To lock it, the crank is inserted into one of the available notches
following the adjustment work.
All assembly parts and clamping points must be tightened properly to ensure safe
and precise sensor arm operation!
- Connect the left or right grade control system connection cable to the intended
handset or vehicle socket.
If the vehicle is to be operated with automatic grade sensing on both sides, the
above described adjustment process must be repeated on the second side.
Exhaustive operating instructions can be found in the documentation for the
corresponding levelling system.
