e)
Install the tube as shown and, for now, lightly tighten collar around the tube
you will need to aim the sensor bracket later.
2.
In order to reduce the chance of problems, inspect the booms in their folded
position. Mark the locations where the sensor brackets can be mounted
without
contacting the sprayer
. Then the booms can be unfolded and the sensors
mounted without having any mechanical interference.
NOTE: If possible, mount the sensor brackets while the booms are in
their folded position to ensure that the sensor and bracket will
not interfere with anything when the boom is folded for
transport.
NOTE: Please be aware of the maximum length of the sensor branch
cable (
Item C2
) for each branch. Note that the sensors can not
be mounted outside of this range on each boom. It might be
wise to route the branch cable at this time to ensure that the
cable reaches to the sensors. (Please refer to Section 4.6
Electrical Installation.)
IMPORTANT:
Provide enough slack in the sensor branch cable to account for
the movement of the main section, parallel lift, and FOLDING
boom movement.
3.
Mount one NORAC UC4 ultrasonic sensor (
Item E2
) near the tip of each boom
with the brackets provided (
Item B13
). Use the 8-mm nuts and lock washers
provided with the sensor, to attach the sensor to the bracket. The sensors
should be oriented forward (ahead) of the boom.
General mounting rules for UC4 ultrasonic wing sensors:
•
When the boom is in its lowest position, the sensor mouth must be 9 inches or
more from the ground.
•
The bottom of the sensor must be at least 9 inches in front of the spray
nozzles.
•
The bottom of the sensor must be at least 9 inches above the spray nozzles.
•
The sensor should be approximately vertical at normal operating heights.
•
Ensure that there are no obstructions within a 12-inch diameter circle
projected directly below the center of the sensor.
Improved boom tip protection and control may be obtained by mounting the
sensor as close to the end of the boom as possible.
However, if the sensors are
