Installing The Unit On The Implement
1.
Route the main sensor harness to the location where
the splitter box will be mounted, and secure the har-
ness with zip ties.
2.
Install the splitter box on the harvester. On late model
harvesters there will be holes for mounting the splitter
box on the left side of the harvester, in the gearbox frame
support plate. On older harvesters or planters holes must
be drilled.
3.
Attach the splitter box to the harvester using the pro-
vided #12-24 screws and nuts (See Fig. #57 pg. 36).

7.
Mount the shaft sensors with the provided mounting
brackets and screws. The mounting brackets fit onto
the bolt hole on the flange of the pillow block bearings.
The small sensor bracket is used on the main driveline
(See Fig.#57 pg. 36) and the larger bracket is used on
the rear cross (See Fig. #56 pg. 36).
8.
The shaft sensor can be set to target either steel fea-
tures (such as a gears or key ways) or the provided mag-
net. If the target is a steel feature the sensor must be
within 0.125”. If the target is the magnet the sensor must
be within .5”. Magnets are also recommended for slow
moving shafts such as the rear cross.
9.
After choosing and mounting the target connect the
minidin cable to end of the sensor.
