Rate Setting
The ramp rate setting is an adjustment that controls
the way boom functions start and stop. There are
two types of ramp rates to adjust on separate
menus:
Ramp Up Time -- the amount of time it takes to
accelerate to speed.
Ramp Down Time -- the amount of time it takes to
decelerate to a stop
The ramp rate settings of a joystick can be
changed to compensate for hydraulic pump wear to
maintain peak performance from the machine.
Note: Perform this procedure with the boom in the
stowed position.
