INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
4.1 E
XISTING SYSTEM CHECK
It is necessary to check the existing system’s
functionality before installing the UC4+ Spray
Height Control system.
1.
Drive your sprayer onto a flat piece of land,
with unobstructed boom movement (e.g. no
power lines).
2.
Test that all boom functions operate
correctly. As you test each function check it
off in
Table 3
.
It is necessary to test the boom
functions in all directions

IMPORTANT:
Raise/lower all boom sections several times to
warm up the hydraulic system. Grease all
moving parts for consistent results.
1.
Lower each boom and main section as
close to the ground as possible.
2.
Set your sprayer at field working RPM
on the throttle and mark this value in
Table 4
.
You will need a stopwatch or a watch
that displays “seconds” for the next
step.
3.
Raise the LEFT boom from its extreme
LOW position to the very TOP of its
travel. Record the time this takes in
Table 4
,
“Trial #1” for “Left UP”.
4.
Lower the LEFT boom from its extreme
HIGH position to the BOTTOM of its
travel. Record this time in
Table 4
, Trial
#1 for “Left DOWN”.
Be careful when lowering the booms so
they don’t hit the ground.
5.
Similarly, record two more time trials
(Trial #2 & #3) for the LEFT boom and
record in
Table 4
.
6.
Repeat Steps
1
through
5
for the RIGHT,
MAIN and ROLL functions.
Your sprayer may not have a roll
feature.
7.
Average the three trials recorded for each
boom
movement
and
record
this
calculation in the “Average Time” slot in
Table 4.
8.
These “Average Times” now represent
how quickly your system can react to
manual control. In
Section 4.8
, this
procedure is repeated with the UC4+
Spray Height Control system installed for
comparison
and
troubleshooting
purposes.
