Setup For Excavating; Positioning The Mr 240; Specifications - Agatec MR240 Manuel D'utilisation

5. Setup for excavating

Aligne Laser
to Notch
Benchmark
With the dipper arm relatively plumb, measure up from the bucket.
The bucket can be fully extended or curled, as long as it's used in the
same position when grade readings are taken. Position the receiver's
on-grade notch at the top of this (L) measurement (per the following
attachment instructions).

6. Positioning the MR 240

Before placing the receiver on the exca-
vator arm, pull down on the release lever.
This creates a gap between the back
plate and machine, preventing the
strong magnets from attaching to the
machine until you have it in position.
Positioning tip: Place it slightly above
your mark, and work the lever up and
down slightly to walk the receiver down
into the on-grade position.
Use the release lever to remove the
receiver from the machine.
