NOZZLE CONTROL VALVE INSTALLATION
PRIMARY BOOM CABLE ROUTING AND CONNECTIONS
NOTE: Review the Best Practices and Recommendations section on page 25 before routing or securing the
boom cables on the implement. Do not connect or secure the cable until instructed to do so in the
procedure.
1. Locate the large, round connectors on the primary boom cables (refer to the Kit Contents section on page 8).
Route the primary cables so the connector with female pins is located at the mid-boom fold point of the left or
right boom and will connect to the secondary boom cable.

2. Starting at the center of the implement, feed the female receptacle end of the primary boom cable through the
boom framework along existing cable or plumbing runs and through any existing cable retention devices.
3. Connect the large, round connectors on the primary and secondary boom cables to each other.
4. Adjust the primary and secondary boom cables to ensure sufficient slack around the mid-boom fold point and
allow each cable to reach nozzle control valves near the folding point.
5. Secure the primary and secondary connection using the supplied zip ties as necessary to protect the connector
from damage during folding and unfolding operations.
6. Starting at the valve on the primary boom segment furthest from the center of the implement, connect the
valve tee branches to the nozzle control valves.
7. At each valve branch, adjust the cable as necessary to provide slack between nozzle control valve connections
and use the supplied zip ties to secure the cable at each valve branch. Refer to Figure 13 on page 26. The large,
round connector with male pins on the primary boom cable should reach to the center of the implement after
all nozzle control valves are connected.
8. Repeat this procedure to route the primary boom cable on the opposite boom.
