Implement wheels
Prepare and install magnet clips as shown.
1.
Place a magnet at the end of each clip (longest side of
2.
magnet should point in the direction of wheel rotation).
Place a cable tie (ribbed side toward magnet) around
the wheel hub and tighten to secure magnets in place.
For large hubs, two or more cable ties can be joined
together.
Rigidly mount sensor mounting bracket to the wheel
3.
assembly. Cut or bend “L” bracket as required for proper
positioning of sensor.
Install sensor, adjust to correct spacing, and secure with
4.
3/8” locking nuts.
See illustration at right.
Front Tractor wheel
When possible, attach magnet clips as shown for
1.
implement wheel. This may require substituting longer
lug bolts and securing clips with nuts. Magnet clips may
also be secured by drilling and tapping holes for smaller
bolts directly into the hub, or with an adhesive.
Mount the speed sensor bracket to a part of the wheel
2.
assembly that does not change position to the hub when
the wheels are turned. If the “L” bracket provided cannot
be bent and mounted to properly position the sensor,
make a bracket similar to the one shown at right.
Insert sensor, adjust spacing and secure with 3/8” locking
3.
nuts.
ATv wheels
Two mounting examples are illustrated.
Using one cable tie (ribbed side toward magnets) secure
1.
two magnets to the wheel hub so they are exactly
opposite each other. Alternate the magnets’ polarities.
The long dimension of the magnet must wrap around
the hub or shaft.
Cut and bend sensor mounting bracket as needed and
2.
rigidly mount.
Insert sensor, adjust spacing and secure with 3/8” locking
3.
nuts.
NOTE: Make sure valve stem cannot make contact with
sensor or bracket.
