  • Page 9: Pre-Install Checklist

    Pre-Install Checklist The pre-install checklist is necessary to check the existing sprayer functionality and settings before the installation. 1. Inspect boom suspension wear-pads for excessive wear and ensure the boom rotates freely. 2. Ensure the boom suspension is configured as a short-pendulum (hilly mode). Insert the boom pin to constrain the long-pendulum suspension as shown in Figure 3.
  • Page 10 4. Adjust the slant speed of the boom until the full stroke of the slant cylinder (not the boom) is 6 seconds (Figure 5). This is the time required for the slant cylinder to travel from fully extended to fully retracted, or vice-versa. 6 Seconds Figure 5: Setting the Slant Speed 5.

  • Page 12: Ultrasonic Sensor Installation

    Ultrasonic Sensor Installation Ultrasonic Sensor Serial Number Arrangement When installing the UC5 sensors, start with the smallest serial number on the left-hand side, and proceed to the largest serial number on the right hand side. Each UC5 sensor has a serial number stamped on the sensor housing.
  • Page 13 Ultrasonic Sensor Mounting Guidelines The following guidelines will ensure optimal sensor performance and prevent sensor measurement error. These rules should be followed for both the wing sensors and the main lift (middle) sensor. 1. In its lowest position, the sensor must be 9 inches (23 cm) or more from the ground (A). 2.
  • Page 14 Wing Sensor Installation 1. Install the wing sensors as shown in Figure 9. 2. Typically the best mounting location for the wing sensor brackets will be near just inside the breakaway sections. Figure 9: Wing Sensor Installation A problem can arise if a sensor is not mounted correctly. It is possible for the sensor to read off of the boom instead of the ground.

  • Page 16: Software Setup

    Software Setup 1. Start up your sprayer and test the sprayer’s functionality. The display terminal does not need to be powered on for the original boom function switches to operate. Unfold the booms and raise/lower each boom and the main section. Confirm that the cabling and hoses are agreeable to the entire range of motion.
