Introduction
Overview
Thank you for purchasing the Raven AutoBoom system. Raven AutoBoom systems are designed to provide
automated height control features for many self-propelled and pull-type application implements. AutoBoom
systems are designed to leave the existing implement hydraulic circuits open, or in a float condition, which
provides a smooth and responsive solution for automated boom height control in agricultural applications.
The instructions in this manual are provided to assist the operator with proper calibration and operation of the
AutoBoom system when used with the Raven OS device.
Note:
Terrain conditions and the machine hydraulic system will dictate the actual vehicle speeds which
may be achieved during application with the AutoBoom system engaged. Typically, rougher and
more varied field terrain will require slower speeds while AutoBoom is engaged.
NOTICE
Installation of the AutoBoom hydraulic and
electrical components must be completed
before calibrating the system. Refer to the
machine-specific AutoBoom Installation Manual
provided with the installation kit for details or
questions regarding installation of the
AutoBoom system.
Review the Installation Manual provided with
the field computer for details regarding the
Raven OS device.
