  • Page 11: 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 12: 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 Wing 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 14 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 15 4. Mount the NORAC UC5 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.
  • Page 16 Ultrasonic Main Lift Sensor Mounting Guidelines The following guidelines will ensure optimal sensor performance and prevent sensor measurement error. 1. In its lowest position, the sensor must be 9 inches (23 cm) or more from the ground. 2. The centerline of the acoustic cone should be approximately vertical at normal operating heights.

  • Page 17: Position Sensor Installation

    Position Sensor Installation 1. The position sensor (E06) should be mounted such that the largest amount of travel of the sensor can be utilized without exceeding the travel limit. The sensor install length is 17” (430mm) center to center with ±3.5” (±90mm) travel recommended. The travel limit is indicated by red bands on the position sensor.
