Rate Setting
The ramp rate setting is an adjustment that
controls the way boom functions start and stop.
There are two types of ramp rates to adjust on
separate menus:
Ramp Up Time -- the amount of time it takes to
accelerate to speed.
Ramp Down Time -- the amount of time it takes to
decelerate to a stop
The ramp rate settings of a joystick can be
changed to compensate for hydraulic pump wear
to maintain peak performance from the machine.
Note: Perform this procedure with the boom in the
stowed position.
1 Enter the Service Mode. See Repair
Procedure, How to Enter the Service Mode.
Press the SETTINGS button above the

setting.
5 Select the desired setting to change and
press OK.
6 In the parameter adjustment screen, use the
display buttons to change the parameter.
Note that the ramp rate is expressed in
seconds to complete the ramp.

immediately.

complete the ramp.

function times listed in Specifications,
Performance Specifications. Determine
whether the ramp time needs to increase or
decrease.

achieve the proper ramp time.
