Install the sensor
To install the sensor, complete the following steps:
1. Rotate the circle so that the blade is square to the machine.
2. Disassemble the rotation sensor by loosening the four bolts in the
locking ring and carefully pulling the sensor apart.
3. Remove the existing hydra swivel lid and replace it with the sensor
mounting plate.
Remember to move the gaskets from the existing lid to the mounting
plate.
The rotation sensor is in most cases mounted on top of the hydra swivel
in the drawbar.
