Primary Boom Angle Sensor
The primary boom angle sensor is used to limit the
angle of the primary boom relative to the angle of
the turntable and gravity.
How to Calibrate the Primary
Boom Angle Sensor
Note: Perform this procedure with the machine on
a firm, level surface with the boom in the stowed
position.
Note: The turntable level sensor and platform load
sensor must be calibrated prior to calibrating the
primary boom angle sensor.
Note: This procedure will establish the cross-check
angle with the boom limit switch LST3S. If LST3S
does not switch its state properly during the
calibration, the calibration will be invalidated.
1 Fully retract and lower the boom. Ensure the
boom is in contact with the boom rest pad.
2 Enter Service Mode. Refer to Repair
Procedure, How to Enter the Service Mode.
3 Press the settings button above the display
and navigate to the Sensor Calibrations menu.
4 Navigate to the Boom Angle Sensor
calibration screen.
5 Select and start the calibration procedure.
6 Start the engine.
7 When the display prompts the operator to
lower the boom, press and hold the function
enable button and the boom down buttons
until the display indicates that the lower
calibration point has been obtained. This may
require holding the buttons for several
seconds after the boom has touched the rest
pad.

8 Press OK on the display to continue with the
procedure to capture the maximum angle
point.

reaches its maximum angle. Continue holding
the function enable and boom up buttons for
several seconds until the display indicates that
the upper calibration point has been obtained.
This may require holding the buttons for
several seconds after the boom reaches its
maximum angle.
10 Follow the on-screen prompts to lower the
boom until the display indicates the calibration
is complete. If this step isn't done, the boom
will be in the safety envelope when the
calibration procedure ends
11 The calibration is now complete.
