Raven's latest advancement in boom controls is AutoBoom® XRT. Industry-leading radar sensor technology uses
simultaneous ground and canopy detection to maintain optimal spray height for maximum product efficacy.
Pressure-based control allow for smooth movement and quicker reaction time while center rack stability
technology with optional dampers gives the operator complete control, maximizing boom life.
INSTALLATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
Before installing the AutoBoom XRT system, park the machine where the ground is level, clean, and dry. Bleed
pressure from the hydraulic system and leave the machine turned off for the duration of the installation process.
During the installation process, follow good safety practices. Be sure to carefully read the instructions in this
manual as you complete the installation process.
Raven Industries recommends the following best practices when installing or operating the XRT system for the first
time, at the start of the season, or when moving the AutoBoom XRT system to another machine:
• Verify that the machine's hydraulic system is using fresh oil and that the filters have been recently changed
• Ensure there are no issues with the machine's hydraulic system (e.g., pump issues, faulty hydraulic motors, fine
metal deposits in the hydraulic hoses, etc.).
POINT OF REFERENCE
The instructions in this manual assume that you are standing behind the machine, looking toward the cab.
