Review equipment operation with your local dealer and follow all safety information presented on this site. Contact a local Raven dealer for assistance with any portion of the installation, service, or operation of Raven equipment. Follow all safety labels affixed to system components. Be sure to keep safety labels in good condition and replace any missing or damaged labels.
The operator is responsible for disabling the system when a safe working dis- tance has diminished. Do not operate the implement on any public road with this Raven system enabled. Maintain control of the vehicle at all times during operation. For example, Remain in the operator seat while the system is enabled and disable auto- mated Raven controls before exiting the operator seat.
Electrical Safety Always verify that power leads are connected to the correct polarity as marked. Revers- ing the power leads could cause severe damage to the Raven system or other com- ponents. To prevent personal injury or fire, replace defective or blown fuses with only fuses of the same type and amperage.
Machine Safety Systems Use all provided safety systems on the machine when operating the machine with the Raven system. Seat belts and restraints must be used when an operator is in the cab. Do not disable any machine-provided safety systems, including but not limited to aud- ible alarms, alarm lights, etc.

Page 21
Important Safety Information Leave protective caps/covers over harness connectors until needed to avoid dirt and moisture from contaminating electrical circuits. Secure the harness to the frame or solid structural members at least every 12 in [30 cm]. Follow existing harness runs already routed on the implement as much as possible. Proper harness routing should: Secure harnessing and prevent the harness from hanging below the implement.
Page 22
Chapter 1 Avoid routing harnesses in areas where the operator or service personnel might step or use as a grab bar. Note: Avoid applying direct spray or pressure washing of electrical components and connections. High pressure streams and sprays can penetrate seals, cause corrosion, or otherwise damage electrical components.
