Confirming Proper Installation
It is very important that the following components are installed correctly in order for the system to function
properly.
• Verify using a level that your booms slope downhill toward the tunnel exit approximately 1/8”
to 1/4” per foot. Loosen bearings and adjust if necessary.
• Verify that the cleaning material is installed correctly. (Starting from the floor and moving
upward, their should be 10 rows of 24” pie shaped cleaning material on the lower wheel,
then 5 rows of 28” cleaning material and 5 rows of 30” cleaning material on the hitch-hiker.
• Verify that clean hydraulic oil is in the reservoirs when booms are extended and retracted.
Fill or replace if necessary.
• Close both flow controls on the boom extend cylinders (turn clockwise). Verify that both
boom cannot be moved inward or outward. If they can then bleed air out of the oil in the
cylinders.
• Open both flow controls (turn counter clockwise completely) on each boom at this time.
• Verify that hydraulic hoses or electric cables to the motors are not pinched or stretched
while moving the Gyro Heads™ completely around. Allow a little extra cable or hose in case
of severe movement (i.e. drive through).
• Verify that your shafts were not bent during installation, the gyro sphere has not been
cracked or damaged, that all bearings on the head are tight, and that the wheels come in
completely before a vehicle gets to them. Correct as necessary.
• Set your fixed positive stops for proper travel when the wheels are extended and retracted.
Spread extended stops farther apart in areas with front license plates.
