    4 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE Before installing the NORAC UC4 Boom Control System to your sprayer, it is necessary to check that all functions of the existing hydraulic system are working properly. Furthermore, it is informative to determine how quickly your sprayer booms and main (center) section are able to change their position without the UC4 System installed.

    4.2 B PEED IMPORTANT: Let the sprayer run for several minutes to heat up the hydraulic oil. Raise/lower the left and right booms, main and hydraulic roll sections several times to help get the system (hydraulic oil, valve solenoids) warmed up. This will simulate field conditions and makes QUITE a difference in some cases.
