Foot Pre-Check
Loosen the hold-down bolt and wait for the dial to stop. Press any number
key to accept that value; the cursor will move to the next foot. Retighten
the bolt and proceed to the next foot. To remove results (clear data at a
single foot) and acquire new data, press Delete. To remove results at all feet
(clear data at all feet), press Alt/Delete.
After all feet have been checked (CSI recommends that you always check
all feet), press Enter and the data will be evaluated. The data is evaluated
based on the type of Foot Pre-Check being used. If Soft Foot is selected, the
data is evaluated as follows:
“-----” – no measurement was made for this foot
“OK” – the measurement to determine Soft Foot is within the speci-
fied tolerance
“x” – the measurement is from 1 to 2 times the specified tolerance
(1x tolerance < measurement 2x tolerance)
“xx” – the measurement is from 2 to 3 times the specified tolerance
(2x tolerance < measurement 3x tolerance)
“xxx” – greater than 3x tolerance
This method does not display a number as the machine is being checked
for soft foot (to prevent you from mistaking this number for a shim correc-
tion).
