  • Page 10 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 to all threaded parts upon installation.

  • 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.

    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 13 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. Apply a light coating of the supplied Permatex Anti-seize grease to all threaded parts upon installation.
  • Page 14 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 15 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. 3. Mount the NORAC UC5 ultrasonic sensor into the sensor bracket and run the sensor cable through the sensor tube.
  • Page 16 Boom Block Removal 1. Remove boom blocks which limit the movements of the top left and right cylinders. Boom Block Location Figure 10: Boom Block Location (shown with block removed)
  • Page 17 Main Lift Sensor Installation Figure 11: Main Lift Bracket Assembly 1. 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 18: 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 19 Roll Sensor Mounting Guidelines: Center Pivot Booms 1. When mounting the roll sensors, mount one to the boom frame and one to 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) Figure 15: Roll Sensor Mounting on a Center Pivot Suspended Boom 2.
