4.1 Manually Checking Voltage Range – Two-Sensor System
FM100 Float Modules equipped with the optional two-sensor system have a left and right sensor located on the back
frame of the float module.
WARNING
To avoid injury or death from unexpected start-up of machine, always stop the engine and remove the key from the

1. Before adjusting the sensors, verify the sensor arms are properly installed on the sensors.
• Left Sensor (A): The point on the arm of the sensor should face away from the header. The point on the float
sensor arm (C) should be installed in the same direction, facing away from the header.
• Right Sensor (B): The point on the arm of the sensor should face away from the header. The point on the float
sensor arm (D) should be installed in the same direction, facing away from the header.
To manually check the sensor's output voltage range, follow these steps:
2. Extend guard angle fully; the header angle indicator should be at D.
3. Position the header 150 mm (6 in.) above the ground, and unlock the float.
