Make sure your system is properly calibrated before beginning 

to  apply  product.    We  also  recommend  completion  of  the 

Pre-Field  System  Checkout  described  on  pages  39-40  prior 

to beginning any field operations.
Press  the  ON/OFF  button  to  turn  the  console  on.    After 

displaying the hours of operation and software version, the 

console will start normal operating mode.
The  MT-3405F™  II  can  be  operated  in  Manual  (MAN)  or 

Automatic  (AuTO)  mode.    In  either  mode,  the  right-hand 

display  will  always  show  the  Application  Rate  (except 

when  in  HOlD  or  when  displaying  error  messages,  see 

Troubleshooting section starting on page 33).  The left hand 

display will show data as selected by the rotary switch.

Manual Operation

The  manual  mode  is  used  when  the  operator  wants  to 

manually control the servo valve using the “+” and “-” keys, 

and thus the application rate.   The application rate (gal/acre 

or liter/hec) will vary depending on ground speed.   use the 

AuTO/MAN button to select MANual mode (“MAN” icon will 

be displayed).

IN HOLd:

 

 If the console is in HOlD, or if all Boom Valves are 

OFF, the “+” and “-” buttons will not control the servo valve 

unless the rotary switch is in the VOluME/MINuTE position.  

In that position only, the servo valve can be adjusted without 

any boom valves on.  This can be useful for system pressure 

tests, etc. 

IN RUN,  wITH  spEEd  sIGNAL: 

  If  the  system  is  in  RuN, 

with at least one boom valve ON and there is a speed signal, 

the “+” and “-” buttons can be used to adjust the servo valve 

with the rotary switch in any position except TANK, VOluME, 

and AREA and the application rate can be monitored on the 

right-hand display.

IN RUN, NO spEEd sIGNAL:

 

 If there is no speed signal, 

“no  SPEEd”  will  flash  in  the  right-hand  display  and  the 

Application Rate will be invalid.  The “+” and “-” buttons will 

adjust the servo valve if the rotary switch is in the VOluME/

MINuTE  position,  and  the  flow  rate  (GPM  or  lPM)  can  be 

monitored.

Turn rotary dial to display desired readout.
