242 Probe Lift
Installing the Probe
To install the probe (not included) in the holder, loosen the clamp screw (see Fig. 19; item #21) and the
clamp mount screw adjacent to it (to allow the clamp to open up). Slide the probe in through the hole and
set the height appropriately. Tighten the clamp screw and clamp mount screw.
Note: different sizes of probe holders are available.
Lifting / Lowering the Probe
The probe lift actuator is controlled by the 'A' push
button on the controller (see Fig. 17). This button will
both lower and raise the probe accordingly.
Connecting the Probe
Connect the probe (not included) by threading the
yellow and red connector leads onto the top of the
probe. The outputs of these leads are located on the
umbilical (see Fig. 12).

243 Pump System
The pump system is used to feed couplant fluid through the umbilical to the probe on the crawler.
Note: Do not assume fluid compatibility. Check with pump manufacturer to ensure the fluid to be pumped
is suitable for this particular pump. E.g. do not use windshield washer fluid (it is very corrosive and may
void the manufacturer's warranty).
Connecting the Pump System
To connect the pump system to the Tri Pod, simply connect the hose from the pump to the fluid hose
connector on the umbilical. The pump system is required to be plugged into a GFCI 120VAC 60Hz power
source.
