Summary of Changes

At MacDon, we

re continuously making improvements, and occasionally these improvements affect product

documentation. The following list provides an account of major changes from the previous version of this document.

Section

Summary of Change

Internal Use Only

Revised instruction format to include front and back covers, and
safety section.

Tech Pubs

2 Parts List, page 5

Revised parts illustration to make it easier to distinguish between
the left and the right sensor assemblies.

Support

3 Installation Instructions, page 7

Added steps and illustration for identifying the left and right
sensor assemblies.

Added note to ensure the connector is facing down and the
sensor arm arrow is facing the combine.

Added step to ensure the rubber boot is attached to the cable
adjuster nut.

Reordered steps so that the harness gets fully installed before
securing. After the harness is installed, and it gets secured
from the float indicator box and working down to the sensor.

Added step to set the float and wing balance before calibrating
the AHHC system.

Added note that if the combine sees the center sensor (except
John Deere), then connector C40 on the FM100 main harness
is not connected.

Added photos taken during an install to help clarify the
procedure.
