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 1/4” per foot. Loosen
bearings and adjust if necessary.
• Verify your wheels are spinning at the RPM as follows when measured on the shaft, and adjust if necessary:
• 72-80 RPM for Waves and Fins
• 88-92 for Neo-Tex

Note: Do not measure using the top hitch-hiker cleaning material, as this may not spin at the
same speed)

• Verify that the cleaning material is installed correctly
• Verify that clean hydraulic oil is in the reservoirs when booms are extended and retracted. Fill or replace if
necessary.

Initial

Settings
1) 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.
2) Open both flow controls (turn counter clockwise completely) on each boom at this time.
3) Check Gyro Head™ spin stops for proper orientation. Correct if necessary.
4) Verify that hydraulic hoses 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)
5) Verify that your shafts are not bent, 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.
6) Set your fixed stops for proper travel when the wheels are extended and retracted. Spread
extended stops farther apart in areas with front license plates.
