8 Dig a 1.0 m Deep Hole Using a Flat Plane with a Laser Reference P1 Precondition 1: Surveyed reference is available with Excavation Depth Indicated; record the Excavation Depth (for example, 1 m). P2 Precondition 2: Laser is setup on a level plane. 1 Using a measuring device, such as a survey stick with a laser catcher, measure the height of the laser above the surveyed reference (ex nail head) this is the Laser Height (for example, 3 m). Laser Height Excavation Depth Surveyed Reference Point 2 These values will be used in the system as: Excavation Depth (1 m) = Target Depth (-1 m) in X200 Laser Height (3 m) = Static Laser Elevation (3 m) in X200 3 LEVEL THE EXCAVATOR 4 On the Main screen, press Guidance Mode Selection Then press Flat Plane 5 To select the laser, press System Options Then scroll to and press Laser 6 Select Auto or Manual Referencing Earthworks X200 Quick Reference Guide 5 PN Rev A1

17 Create a Sloped Plane with a Laser (continued) 5 To reference the system, move the stick to allow laser catcher to cross the laser plane. REF appears, you will hear an audible noise, and the system references. This will reference and 0 the heading of the system. 6 On the Main screen, press Target Depth, then enter a target depth (-1 m) 7 DIG TO THE SLOPE! The X200 Terminal reprojects the Target Depth line as the excavator slews.

18 Dig a Profile Design Pr Preface: A profile design can be used to dig to a complex series of combined flat planes and slopes as desired by the operator. P1 Precondition 1: If enabled, the Laser must be disabled. 1 On the Main screen, press Guidance Mode Selection Then press Profile 2 3 Select the profile to use, or create one by scrolling up or down through previously created profiles Create a profile by using the following: Use the selected profile for excavation Edit the selected profile Clear the selected profile (creates flat plane) 4 Edit the profile using the following keys: Move between the active nodes Use the number pad to enter X and Z values of the points Select active node for editing Move the node left or right (+/- X) Move the node up or down (+/- Z) Earthworks X200 Quick Reference Guide 15 PN Rev A1

19 Dig a Profile Design (continued) 5 Repeat Step 4 until a profile is created 6 A blue node can be used as an optional bench node. In addition to X and Z values, this node can have a Y value and does not need to be in line with the profile. Use this node to reference the system where no other node in the profile can be touched. This option requires the GPS compass to be enabled. Referencing the system: The bucket teeth must be able to touch one of the nodes OR a blue bench node can be used. 7 LEVEL THE EXCAVATOR 8 Touch one of the nodes with the bucket Do not move the machine Press Bucket Then use the arrows to move to the correct node 9 Press to confirm node selection 10 DIG THE PROFILE DESIGN Earthworks X200 Quick Reference Guide 16 PN Rev A1

20 Dig a Trench Design Pr P1 Preface: A trench design can be used to dig a complex series of combined flat planes and slopes along the center line of the machine as desired by the operator. Precondition 1: If enabled, the Laser must be disabled. 1 On the Main screen, press Guidance Mode Selection Then press Trench 2 Select the trench to use, or create one by scrolling up or down through previously created trenches 3 Create a trench by using the following: Use the selected trench for excavation Edit the selected trench Clear the selected trench (creates flat plane) 4 Edit the trench using the following keys: Move between the active nodes Use the number pad to enter X and Z values of the points Select active node for editing Move the node left or right (+/- X) Move the node up or down (+/- Z) Earthworks X200 Quick Reference Guide 17 PN Rev A1

21 Dig a Trench Design (continued) 5 Repeat Step 4 until a trench is created 6 Exit out of the Trench editing and press Use 7 Referencing the system: The trench digging mode requires that the machine is positioned on the center line of the trench (see left). 8 Position the bucket teeth at a known elevation Do not move the machine Press Bucket Then enter the depth from the reference to the base of the desired trench 9 DIG THE TRENCH DESIGN Earthworks X200 Quick Reference Guide 18 PN Rev A1

22 X200 Bucket Creation and Selection 1 On the Main screen, press System Options Then scroll to and press Buckets 2 On the Bucket selection menu, use the arrows to move to a bucket or move to a Not used bucket to create a new bucket Then press the check mark to confirm node selection 3 Once you select the desired bucket, use the options at the bottom of the screen. For a new bucket, press Edit; for a different bucket, press Use. Exit back to the previous Bucket selection menu Adjust the shape of the bucket Return to the Guidance screen with the selected bucket Edit the selected bucket Prompts user to delete the selected bucket Earthworks X200 Quick Reference Guide 19 PN Rev A1

23 X200 Bucket Creation and Selection (continued) 3 (Continued) After pressing Edit to create a new bucket, the Bucket data editing screen appears 4 Measure the A-C, A-B, B-C, and Width dimensions and enter them in the Bucket data editing screen Use the arrows to move to an item Then press the check mark to select the item If the attachment description is selected, a keyboard is displayed and allows for editing 5 Once complete, press Exit Then, at the Overwrite previous bucket data? prompt, press or 6 To use the bucket, on the Bucket selection menu press Use Earthworks X200 Quick Reference Guide 20 PN Rev A1

24 X200 Concept Hints! When the machine is tracked, move the Laser Catcher through the Laser Plane again to re-acquire the laser reference. The length of time for system to re-reference depends on the operator-configured number of laser strikes. Move stick laser receiver through laser plane! To confirm accuracy of the setup of the Flat Plane and Laser Reference, place bucket tooth near survey stake and ensure the value = 0, and the bucket appears to be on or near the ground. The excavation depth should be the target depth line shown on the screen. With bucket at the survey reference = 0 Excavation depth shown as target depth (red line)! If strobe lights or other lasers are causing your system to rereference unintentionally, increase the value for the Set number of strikes for reference from 3 to 20 Press Bucket Then Press Laser Re-reference Then enter a laser reference Earthworks X200 Quick Reference Guide 21 PN Rev A1

25 X200 Concept Hints (continued)! When mass excavating, re-reference the laser before final cut, as the excavator may have settled during digging Level Pre mass excavating Not Level Post mass excavating Re-level and re-reference before final cut! If using the flat plane with a laser reference, you can use target depths for other flat planes in the design: Target Depth = -2.0 (deepest area of cut) Target Depth = -1.5 (an area in the design.5 higher) This moves the red target line On the Main screen, press Target Depth, then enter a target depth (-2 m or -1 m)! If using the flat plane with a laser reference, check the depth by setting a laser catcher on a survey pole at the following: Depth Check = Laser Height + Excavation Depth Move laser catcher the Excavation Depth distance Depth Check: Laser Height + Excavation Depth Laser Height Surveyed Reference Point Excavation Depth Earthworks X200 Quick Reference Guide 22 PN Rev A1

26 X200 Concept Hints (continued)! If you desire a target line at the depth you are excavating and the to be 0.00 on the screen upon hitting the depth, set both the Bench Elevation and the target depth to the same number, just opposite in sign. 2.5 to excavate -2.5 target depth line On the Main screen, press Bench Elevation, then enter a bench elevation (2.5m) On the Main screen, press Target Depth, then enter a target depth (-2.5m) Earthworks X200 Quick Reference Guide 23 PN Rev A1
