GPS Vibration Pole
The GPS vibration pole (Figure 1-8) installs on
the machine, sliding onto the pivot post attached to the tow arm. The
GPS vibration pole provides a lightweight, fixed mount for the PZS-
MC, and utilizes shock isolation and vibration dampening.

Slope Sensor
The slope sensor (Figure 1-9 on page 1-8) is a
precision electronic sensor which functions much like a precision
carpenter’s level. The slope sensor reads the inclination (tilt) of the
screed and sends the signal to the control box. The slope sensor
measures slopes from +20% to -20%
