( 1 ) The engine speed should be selected depending on the application of the Wheel Harvester. Do not select a lower engine RPM for the operation of the Harvester Head.
Place the operating mode switch in the WORKING MODE position. Increase the engine speed to normal operating speed. The speed of the functions will change with engine speed. See Table 1 for the proper engine speed range.
Press the "MENU" button on the control panel for the IQAN. Select the "Leveling" option. The following screen will be displayed:

"Levelling" menu
The function that needs to be adjusted can now be selected. To select the function, press a switch or move the joystick control. A pendulum arm will move. Release the lever or the switch. To adjust the switches, refer to Step 6. To adjust the joystick, refer to Step 7.
Switches
There is only one magnitude of current that can flow from an on/off switch. A pendulum arm can only move at one speed when a on/off switch is pressed. If an on/off switch is pressed, the IQAN screen will display the following message:
Illustration 2 g00489472
"Switches" menuNote: The "Max Current" setting controls the speed of the pendulum arms. The "Slope Time" setting controls the response of the pendulum arms when the switch is released. The response time for the pendulum arms to stop is quicker as the value for the "Slope Time" is decreased. The "Minimum Current" setting does not change the speed of the pendulum arms.
To change the speed of the pendulum arms for a switch, press the button next to "Max Current".
Use the arrow buttons to adjust the value. Press the "Menu" button in order to accept the desired value.
After the value has been changed, test the switches again with the engine at normal operating speed. All of the settings for the switches are controlled by the one current setting.
Joystick
If the joystick for the pendulum arms is moved, the IQAN screen will display the following message:

"Joystick" menuNote: When you make the adjustments to the output from the joystick for the pendulum arm, refer to the definitions and follow the instructions for changing the values.
To change the "Max Current", "Slope Time", or "Minimum Current", press the button next to the value.Note: When you adjust the "Min Current", move the joystick control or the toggle switch to the MAXIMUM position. Release the control after
