Instructions For Hose Routing - Raven SmarTrax Installation Manual

Protect harnesses from:
• Foreign objects such as rocks that may fall or be thrown by the unit
• Buildup of dirt, mud, snow, ice, submersion in water and oil
• Tree limbs, brush and debris
• Damage where service personnel or operators might step or use as a grab bar
• Damage when passing through metal structures
IMPORTANT: Avoid directly spraying electrical components and connections with high pressure water. High pressure water
sprays can penetrate seals and cause electrical components to corrode or otherwise become damaged.
When performing maintenance:
•
Inspect all electrical components and connections for damage or corrosion. Repair or replace
components, connections, or cable as necessary.
•
Ensure connections are clean, dry, and not damaged. Repair or replace components, connections,
or cable as necessary.
•
Clean components or connections using low pressure water, pressurized air, or an aerosol electrical
component cleaning agent.
•
Remove visible surface water from components, connections, or seals using pressurized air or an
aerosol electrical component cleaning agent. allow components to dry completely before
reconnecting cables.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR HOSE ROUTING

The word "hose" is used to mean all flexible fluid carrying components. Follow existing hoses as much as possible
and use these guidelines:
Hoses should not contact or be attached to:
• Components with high vibration forces
• Components carrying hot fluids beyond component specifications
Avoid contact with any sharp edge or abrading surfaces such as, but not limited to:
• Sheared or flame cut edges
• Edges of machined surfaces
• Fastener threads or cap screw heads
• Ends of adjustable hose clamps
Routing should not allow hoses to:
• Hang below the unit
• Have the potential to become damaged due to exposure to the exterior environment. (i.e. tree limbs, debris,
attachments)
• Be placed in areas of or in contact with machine components which develop temperatures higher than the
temperature rating of hose components
• Hoses should be protected or shielded if it needs to route near hot temperatures beyond hose component
specifications
Hoses should not have sharp bends
Allow sufficient clearance from machine component operational zones such as:
