(22) Auto/Manual and decrement switch
(23) Increment switch
(24) Trigger at front of joystick (not visible)To increment the Vertical Offset above the design surface, press and hold the trigger (24) and momentarily press the increment button (23).To decrement the Vertical Offset below the design surface, press and hold the trigger (24) and momentarily press the decrement button (22).Note: Either operation can be performed multiple times to move the offset further from the design surface.Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Vertical Offset Increment - Set" to change the increment offset value.Note: When using the Elevation Offset dialog, the operator disables the automatic controls.D3K-D6K Model

(22) Auto/Manual switch
(25) Increment button
(26) Decrement buttonThere is no trigger on the Implement Joystick. Instead, push buttons are used to increment and decrement the Vertical Offset.To increment the Vertical Offset above the design surface, press the upper black Increment button (25).To decrement the Vertical Offset below the design surface, press the lower black Decrement button (26).Customizing Increment and Decrement
The Grade Control system has the option to customize the Increment and Decrement:
Vertical offset incrementVertical Offset Increment
The Vertical Offset Increment allows the operator to adjust the offset distance of the working surface every time the offset switches are depressed.Note: The "Vertical Offset Increment" dialog is a site selectable feature. Consult the Site Manager to turn this feature ON.If this feature is turned ON, the "Vertical Offset Increment" dialog is used to set the amount that each press of the Vertical Offset buttons either increases or decreases the vertical offset. Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Vertical Offset Increment - Set" to modify the offset increment value.Slope Assist and Grade Control 3D Interactions
Tractor Type Tractors with Cat Grade Control 3D systems may have two systems that provide automatic blade control. Machines equipped with both Cat Grade Control 3D and Slope Assist systems may provide automatic control of the blade based on the operator’s interaction with the systems. Different sites and grading applications may make the use of one system more desirable over the other.The same Auto/Manual Button is used by both systems but which system controls blade movement is defined by which runtime screen is visible on the G7P machine display.Cat Grade Control 3D Blade Control
If the primary machine display (G7P) shows the main runtime screen or any non-Slope Assist screens, the CB460 Cat Grade Control system will control the blade movement when activated by Auto/Manual Implement Joystick switch and the blade intersects the design surface.

Illustration 28 shows the main runtime screen on the primary machine display (G7P). When the primary machine display (G7P) shows this screen and the Auto/Manual switch has been pressed to arm the Cat Grade Control 3D system to control the blade, the CB460 Cat Grade Control display will indicate the system status in the lower left corner and indicate when the system is in automatic control after a blade tip has
