5.6 - Depth Alarm (where fitted)

Provides a visual readout of implement ram position using a scale of 0 to 99. 0 is full ram extension

and 99 is maximum depth.

The depth alarm is set using a “HOLD” point, which automatically puts the unit on hold when the

implement is raised above this point. The depth sensor must be enabled before setting the hold

point.

1.6.1 – Enable

1. Press the “NEXT>” softkey to display depth.

2. Press and hold for 3 seconds the softkey pointing at “DEPTH”.

3. “DISABLED” will change to “ENABLED”.

1.6.2 - Set Hold Point

When adjusting the implement height, the live reading provides a reference point for setting the

required hold point. Test the readout by raising and lowering the implement to ensure the depth

sensor is adjusted to provide a sufficient range of operation.

1. Press softkey pointing at “DEPTH” until the “HOLD” value is highlighted.

2. Using the live reading as a guide, adjust the implement height to display the required ‘hold’

point.

3. Use the arrow keys to set the “HOLD” point to match the live hold value.
