  • Page 9 SIZE FACE P - PIPE 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 10: 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.

    Ultrasonic Sensor Installation Bracket Assembly Assemble the breakaway sensor bracket as illustrated in Figure 5, following the instructions below. Figure 5: Breakaway Bracket Assembly 1. Compress the spring and insert it together with the collar into the base. 2. Slide the tube through the assembled part. 3.
  • Page 12 Ultrasonic Sensor Serial Number Arrangement When installing the 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 sensor has a serial number stamped on the sensor housing. Apply a light coating of the supplied Permatex Anti-seize grease (M06) to all threaded parts upon installation.
  • 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 If the sensor is mounted to this portion of the boom, the system will force the boom downwards towards the ground as the boom folds backwards. 4. Mount the NORAC ultrasonic sensor into the sensor bracket and run the sensor cable through the sensor tube.
  • Page 15 Main Lift Sensor Installation 1. Assemble the main lift sensor bracket (B11) as shown in Figure 9. Figure 9: Main Lift Bracket Assembly 2. 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.
  • Page 16: Roll Sensor Installation

    Roll Sensor Installation Bracket Assembly 1. Securely mount the roll sensors to the included roll sensor brackets using the #6 machine screw and nylon lock-nuts. 2. The orientation of the mounted roll sensor to the roll sensor bracket will depend on the bracket mounting.
  • Page 17 Roll Sensor Mounting Guidelines: Center Pivot Booms 1. When mounting the roll sensors, mount the roll sensor without the temperature probe on the boom frame and the roll sensor with the temperature probe on the chassis (non- pivoting portion of the sprayer). For optimal performance, minimize the distance between the roll sensors (A) and minimize the height from each roll sensor to the pivot point (B).
  • Page 18 Figure 16: Roll Sensor Mounting (Viewed from Front of Sprayer) Temperature Probe Once the block is mounted, fasten the temperature probe from E03 to the NORAC valve block using the included 3/8x1/2” bolt as illustrated in Figure 17.

    A good spot to mount the UC4.5 control panel is on the right hand side of the cab to the Roll Over Protection Bar. Four pilot holes for the screws provided need to be drilled to facilitate the control panel mounting.
  • Page 20 8. Connect the 6-pin tower on C03 to C04. Connect the 2-pin connectors on C03 to the NORAC valve block, as shown in Figure 19. 9. The connectors on the valve cable (C03) are marked RIGHT UP, LEFT UP, RIGHT DOWN and LEFT DOWN.
  • Page 21 13. Connect two cables (C05) to the 8-way coupler and route along the booms to the wing sensors. Follow existing cables and hoses to be sure the cable will not be pinched or stretched. 14. At the sensor brackets, attach a 2-way coupler with terminator (E20) to the sprayer boom. The 2-way coupler with terminator is the white two way coupler.

    Valve Assembly 1. On a clean surface remove the plastic plugs from the block. 2. Install the 6MB-6MJ (F06) fittings on the “P” and “T” ports on the NORAC block. Tighten to 18 ft-lbs (24 Nm). 3. Insert the orifices (F07) into the “B” ports with the notch facing out.
  • Page 23 Valve Block Mounting Ensure that no hydraulic components will interfere with any sprayer parts or be pulled tight at any time. 1. A suitable mounting location for the valve block is illustrated in Figure 21. 2. Insert the threaded rod into the block and use a hex nut to hold the rod. The block holes are 3/8”...
  • Page 24 4. Connect the tee fittings (F04) to the fittings (F05) on the “P” and “T” ports of the sprayer valve block. 5. Connect H04 from the “P” port on the NORAC block to the tee fitting (F04) on the “P” port of the sprayer block.

    2. If any functions do not work, review the hydraulic and electrical portions of this manual to check for proper installation. 3. Turn on the power for the UC4.5 Control Panel using the switch on the side of its chassis. 4. The procedure for the installation of the UC4.5 Spray Height Control system is now complete.
