Page 7 UC4.5-BC-GN2-INSTE ANTI-SEIZE LUBRICANT KIT 45015 The use of dielectric grease is not recommended on any NORAC electrical connections. To ensure all stainless steel hardware does not gall or seize apply a light coating of the supplied Permatex Anti-seize grease (M06) to all threaded parts upon installation.
Page 8: 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 9 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. 2.
Page 10 Low Profile Bracket Mounting Guidelines 1. Minimize the distance between the bolts to prevent bending the bracket and prevent the bracket from loosening over time. 2. Ensure the bracket is mounted tight against the bottom of the boom, minimizing the distance between the boom structure and the angled flange.
Page 11 4. Mount the NORAC ultrasonic sensor into the sensor bracket and run the sensor cable either through hole in the back or through the side cut-out and behind the bracket. Ensure the cable is clear of moving parts and will not be damaged during folding.
