RECOMMENDATIONS
Raven Industries recommends the following best practices before installing or operating the AutoBoom system for
the first time, at the start of the season, or when moving the AutoBoom system to another machine:
• Ensure the machine hydraulic filters have been recently changed and there are no issues with the machine
hydraulic system (e.g., pump issues, faulty hydraulic motors, fine metal deposits in the hydraulic hoses, etc.).
• Operate each of the machine boom hydraulic functions (i.e., tilt, fold, center rack, tongue extension, or other
hydraulic valve functions) three times to ensure the machine hydraulic valve is using fresh oil and debris is
flushed from the hydraulic hoses, valves, and filters.
• Upon installation of the AutoBoom system, operate the boom and center rack raise/lower functions through
the machine manual control functions first before operating them via the AutoBoom controller/field computer
to ensure the hydraulic system has been installed correctly and air is released from the system.
Raven Industries recommends the following best practices when installing the AutoBoom system.
• Use part numbers to identify the parts.
• Do not remove the plastic wrap from a part until it is necessary for installation.
• Do not remove plastic caps from a part until it is necessary for installation.
