IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Introduction
The ESD (Electric Steering Device) is a high performance steering
actuator designed to provide high precision steering when coupled
to a GNSS automated steering system. The ESD was designed for
ease of installation, portability between vehicles and a long service
life. The ESD uses a reliable high torque DC motor and a robust
and simple gear drive for fast and responsive steering under all field
steering conditions. The unique split gear design and quick-release
latch makes for an easy installation that does not require the removal
of the steering wheel so you gain time and are also able to easily
transfer your ESD between vehicles.
This manual provides the basic information and overview of the
installation procedure for installing the ESD steering actuator on a
vehicle. The ESD can be installed on many makes, models, and
types of vehicles. Read this manual prior to beginning the installation
as this manual provides the cautions and warnings that need to
be recognized and understood prior to installing or operating a
UniPilot Pro system.
This manual provides the instructions for the installation of the
components that come with this UniPilot Pro installation kit. The
installation is broken down into specific sections that may refer
to sub-kit assemblies that are part of this kit. These sub-kits will
