risks and protections before assembLy

All installation works must be done with battery disconnected, using suitable tools and any individual protection equipment 
deemed necessary.
Use ONLY clean water for treatment tests and simulations: using chemicals during simulated treatment runs can seriously injure 
persons in the vicinity.

bravo dsb

ARAG has designed and manufactured a diagnostics system for Bravo series computers and the systems they may be connected to.
BRAVO DSB 

(code  467003)

 provides reliable diagnostics of computer, control unit or the whole system to troubleshoot any potential problems 

experienced with the BRAVO DSB system.

intended use

The device you have purchased is a computer which, when connected to a valve or suitable control unit, makes it possible to control all phases of 
treatment in agricultural applications directly from the cabin of the farming machine it is installed in.

This device is designed to work on agricultural machinery for crop spraying applications.
The machine is designed and built in compliance with EN ISO 14982 standard (Electromagnetic compatibility - Forestry and 
farming machines), harmonized with 2004/108/EC Directive.

precautions

• Do not aim water jets at the equipment.
• Do not use solvents or fuel to clean the case outer surface.
• Do not clean equipment with direct water jets.
• Comply with the specified power voltage (12 Vdc).
• In case of voltaic arc welding, remove connectors from BRAVO and disconnect the power cables.
• Only use ARAG genuine spare parts and accessories.
