Electrical; General; Instructions For Wire Routing - Raven RS1 Guidance And Steering Installation Manual

Allow sufficient clearance from machine component operational zones such as:
• Drive shafts, universal joints and hitches (i.e. 3-point hitch)
• Pulleys, gears, sprockets
• Deflection and backlash of belts and chains
• Adjustment zones of adjustable brackets
• Changes of position in RS1 HDU and suspension systems
• Moving linkages, cylinders, articulation joints, attachments
• Ground engaging components
For hose sections that move during machine operation:
• Allow sufficient length for free movement without interference to prevent: pulling, pinching, catching or
rubbing, especially in articulation and pivot points
• Clamp hoses securely to force controlled movement to occur in the desired hose section
• Avoid sharp twisting or flexing of hoses in short distances
Protect hoses 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
• High pressure wash

ELECTRICAL

GENERAL

• Always verify that the power leads are connected to the correct polarity as marked. Reversing the power leads
could cause severe damage to the equipment.
• Ensure that the power cable is the last cable to be connected.
• A minimum of 12 VDC is required for system operation with a maximum of 15 VDC.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR WIRE ROUTING

The word "harness" is used to mean all electrical leads and cables, bundled and unbundled. When installing
harness, secure it at least every 30 cm (12in) to the frame. Follow existing harness as much as possible and use
these guidelines:
Harness should not contact or be attached to:
• Lines and hoses with high vibration forces or pressure spikes
• Lines and hoses carrying hot fluids beyond harness 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
