  • Page 12 BRACKET MOUNTING LINEAR ROLL ROGATOR LT - LOWER Do not use high speed power tools/drills when installing hardware. 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 to all threaded parts upon installation.
  • Page 13: Pre-Install Checklist

    Pre-Install Checklist The pre-install checklist is necessary to check the existing sprayer functionality before the installation. 1. Unfold the sprayer over a flat, unobstructed area (i.e. no power lines…etc.). 2. Ensure all boom-fold operations are functional (place a check mark in boxes below). 3.
  • Page 14: 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 15 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 16 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 17 Wing Sensor Installation 1. The sensor bracket should be oriented forward (ahead of the boom). 2. Typically, the best mounting location for the outer wing sensor brackets will be near the end of the boom tips, approximately two feet (60cm) from the end. Mount the bracket using the u-bolts (M08) and lock nuts (M09).
  • Page 18 Figure 9: Inner Wing Sensor Bracket with Spacer (90’ and 100’ Booms Only)
  • Page 19 Main Lift Sensor Installation 1. There are a variety of ways to mount the main lift bracket on most sprayers. The bracket should position the sensor approximately in the center of the sprayer, forward of the boom. An example of this mounting is illustrated in Figure 10. 2.
  • Page 20: Roll Sensor Installation

    Roll Sensor Installation Bracket Assembly 1. Securely mount the roll sensors to the included roll sensor brackets using the #6 machine screws. Tighten screws to 10 in-lbs (1.1 Nm). 2. The orientation of the mounted roll sensor to the roll sensor bracket will depend on the bracket mounting.
  • Page 21 Roll Sensor Mounting Guidelines 1. When mounting the roll sensors, mount one to the boom frame and one to the chassis (non-pivoting portion of the sprayer). 2. Both roll sensor cables should be pointing towards the right-hand wing of the sprayer. 3.

    (Figure 15). 3. All cables that connect to the control module are located in the electrical box. 4. Connect the cable marked “NORAC C1” to the end of the control module with only one Deutsch connector. 5. Connect the cables marked “NORAC C2” and “NORAC C3” to the control module CANbus connectors.
