4. AG-tronik CONNECTION
If you are not skilled in such work, we recommend that the electronic regulation is installed
by an authorized service of Agromehanika. If you have decided to install it yourself, a brief
installation description is given further on.
Speed sensor must be installed first. If you have purchased a driven tractor sprayer, the
sensor is already installed on the chassis of the sprayer and you do not have to perform this
installation. Speed sensor cable is connected with AG-tronik via connector.
If you have purchase our carried tractor sprayer, speed sensor must be mounted on the
tractor chassis. Speed sensor is no-contact metal sensor. It is mounted on the chassis next to
the front wheel, so the speed sensor can detect wheel bolts. Bolts, which connect the wheel
with the rim, are the most appropriate. Be careful that the length of the bolts remains the
same and that bolts do not hit the sensor, otherwise it can be damaged and destroyed. Sensor
is mounted on the front wheel, but when this is not possible, it is mounted on the rear wheel.
Sprayer comes with universal sensor holder, in which you install the sensor. Turn the holder
so that it is protected from mud. You must adjust the holder to your tractor. Distance of the
sensor from the bolt must be set between 4-5 mm. Check functioning of the signal with a light,
which is built into the sensor. When the sensor is connected to AG-tronik, this lights up, when
metal is close to the sensor. Speed sensor cable must be routed along the chassis of the
tractor to the cab, where it is connected to AG-tronik. Be careful not to expose the cable to
mechanic damages.
Figure 7, Control light turns on, when the sensor is less than 5 mm from metal.
Now you must mount the AG-tronik to an appropriate place in the cab. The most appropriate
place is usually to the right by the window on the mudguard or the frame of tractor cab. AG-
tronik includes a screwed-on holder on its housing, which is attached to the housing with
supplied screws. Holder can be mounted on the upper or the lower channel on the AG-tronik
housing or you can turn it vertically.
Now the sprayer must be connected to the tractor. When this one is connected, connect
regulator cable with Ag-tronik. Connector allows only one position.
If you own a carried tractor sprayer, speed sensor must be connected to AG-tronik. Plug the
speed sensor cable plug in 4-pole outlet and secure the cable from detaching with the nut. If
you own a driven sprayer, the sensor is already connected to AG-tronik in the electric
connection cabinet of regulator PR-9EC.
