Height adjustment

For optimal precision, the antenna should be kept parallel with, and as close as possible
to the ground surface. However, higher setting of the antenna may be required when
operating in grass or other adverse terrain conditions.

Adjust the front wheel height

Pull the

Spring release lever

to release the wheel spring

and then rotate the wheel lever to adjust the antenna to the
desired height.

Adjust the rear wheel height

Repeat the procedure for the adjusting the front wheel
height taking care to ensure that the antenna remains par-
allel with the ground.

Note:

The wheels on the RTC are not adjustable. However the height of the antenna cradle

can be adjusted according to the terrain conditions.
