IMPORTANT INFORMATION
RECOMMENDATIONS AND BEST PRACTICES
HOSE ROUTING
The word “hose” is used to describe any flexible, fluid carrying components. Use the following guidelines and
recommendations when connecting and routing hoses while installing or maintaining this Raven system:
• Leave protective caps/covers over hose ends until connecting the end into the hydraulic system to help
prevent contaminants from entering the system.
• Follow existing hose runs already routed on the implement as much as possible. Proper hose routing should:
•Secure hoses and prevent hoses from hanging below the implement.
•Provide sufficient clearance from moving components and operational zones around shafts;
universal joints and suspension components; pulleys, gears, belts, and chains; moving linkages,
cylinders, articulation joints, etc.
•Protect hoses from field debris and surrounding hazards (e.g. tree limbs, fence posts, crop stubble,
dirt clumps or rocks that may fall or be thrown by the implement).
•Protect hoses from sharp bends, twisting, or flexing over short distances and normal implement
operation.
•Ensure sufficient length for free movement of the implement during normal operation and prevent
pulling, pinching, catching, or rubbing, especially in articulation and pivot points. Clamp hoses
securely to force controlled movement of the hose.
•Avoid abrasive surfaces and sharp edges such as sheared or flame cut corners, fastener threads or
cap screw heads, hose clamp ends, etc.
•Avoid areas where the operator or service personnel might step or use as a grab bar.
• Do not connect, affix, or allow hoses to come into contact with components with high vibration forces, hot
surfaces, or components carrying hot fluids beyond the temperature rating of hose components.
•Hoses should be protected or shielded if routing requires the hose to be exposed to conditions
beyond hose component specifications.
• Avoid routing hoses in areas where damage may occur due to build up of material (e.g. dirt, mud, snow, ice,
etc.).
WIRE ROUTING
The word “harness” is used to describe any electrical cables and leads, both bundled and unbundled. Use the
following guidelines and recommendations when connecting and routing harnesses while installing or
maintaining this Raven system:
• Leave protective caps/covers over harness connectors until needed to avoid dirt and moisture from
contaminating electrical circuits.
• Secure the harness to the frame or solid structural members at least every 12 in [30 cm].
• Follow existing harness runs already routed on the implement as much as possible. Proper harness routing
should: •Secure harnessing and prevent the harness from hanging below the implement.
•Provide sufficient clearance from moving components and operational zones around shafts;
universal joints and suspension components; pulleys, gears, belts, and chains; moving linkages,
cylinders, articulation joints, etc.
•Protect harnessing from field debris and surrounding hazards (e.g. tree limbs, fence posts, crop
stubble, dirt clumps or rocks that may fall or be thrown by the implement).

CHAPTER 1
4 AGCO RoGator RG900/1100/1300 Hawkeye® Installation Manual
•Protect harnessing from sharp bends, twisting, or flexing over short distances and normal
implement operation.
•Connectors and splices should not be located at bending points or in harness sections that move.
•Ensure sufficient length for free movement of the implement during normal operation and prevent
pulling, pinching, catching, or rubbing, especially in articulation and pivot points. Clamp harnessing
securely to force controlled movement of the harness.
•Avoid abrasive surfaces and sharp edges such as sheared or flame cut corners, fastener threads or
cap screw heads, hose clamp ends, etc.
• Do not connect, affix, or allow harnessing to come into contact with components with high vibration forces, hot
surfaces, or components carrying hot fluids beyond the temperature rating of harness components.
•Harnessing should be protected or shielded if routing requires the hose to be exposed to
conditions beyond harnessing component specifications.
• Avoid routing harnesses in areas where damage may occur due to build up of material (e.g. dirt, mud, snow,
ice, etc.).
• Avoid routing harnesses in areas where the operator or service personnel might step or use as a grab bar.
IMPORTANT: Avoid applying direct spray or pressure washing of electrical components and connections. High pressure
streams and sprays can penetrate seals, cause corrosion, or otherwise damage electrical components.
When performing maintenance:
• Inspect electrical components and connectors for corrosion, damaged pins or housings, etc. Repair or replace
components or harnessing as necessary.
• Ensure connectors are kept clean and dry. Apply dielectric grease to the sealing surfaces of all connections
exposed to moisture, dirt, debris, and other contaminates. Repair or replace harnessing as necessary.
• Clean electrical components with pressurized air, aerosol electrical cleaning agent, or low pressure rinse.
• Remove visible surface water from electrical components and connections using pressurized air or an aerosol
cleaning agent. Allow components to dry thoroughly before reconnecting cables.

CHAPTER 3 INSTALLATION PREPARATION
Perform the following procedure to prepare fir the Hawkeye® nozzle control installation.
1. Rinse and fill the tank with clean water.
2. Move the equipment to an open area suitable for testing application system operation and rinsing the boom
plumbing.
3. Unfold the boom and enable the application control system. Verify that all control hardware (e.g. control valves,
section valves, etc.) and spray tips function as expected.
4. Operate the system until all chemicals are rinsed from the boom supply lines.
5. Disable the application control system and de-pressurize the boom.
6. Replace existing carrier line strainer(s) with an 80 mesh strainer. An 80 mesh (or finer) strainer is required for
use with the Hawkeye nozzle control system.
7. If turret style nozzle bodies are installed on the implement, rotate the turret to an open spray position, if
available. If an open spray position is not available, or for nozzle bodies without a turret, remove the spray tips
from the boom and set aside for later use.
8. Enable the application control system and run clean water for at least 20 seconds to rinse any remaining debris
from the boom plumbing and nozzle bodies.
9. Remove the cap and diaphragm from the nozzle bodies.

CHAPTER 4 NOZZLE CONTROL VALVE
INSTALLATION
HAWKEYE NOZZLE CONTROL VALVE INSTALLATION
After rinsing the debris out of the plumbing, mount the Hawkeye® nozzle control valves to the existing nozzle
bodies.
BEST PRACTICES AND RECOMMENDATIONS
• Do not connect battery leads until all cables are installed and connected.
• If a dual channel turret nozzle body is installed on the implement, always mount the Hawkeye nozzle control
valve to the straight nozzle port to avoid excessive pressure drop across the nozzle.
• If there are obstacles that interfere with the Hawkeye valve installation it may be necessary to purchase a
different brand of nozzle body with a threaded port on the opposite side.
GENERAL VALVE INSTALLATION
FIGURE 1. Valve Face O-Ring and Nozzle Control Valve

3. Orient the nozzle control valve so that the label is easily readable.
4. Hand tighten the swivel nut to secure the nozzle control valve to the nozzle body. Do not over tighten.
NOTE: Frequently check the nozzle control valve fly nuts to ensure they are secure.
VALVE MOUNTING INTERFERENCE AND OBSTRUCTIONS
In some locations on the spray boom, boom equipment or hardware may interfere with mounting the Hawkeye
nozzle control valves. In these locations, there are a few options to get around the interferences:
1. Rotate the nozzle control valve so the round, low profile side of the NCV is towards the interference.
FIGURE 3. Modified Nozzle Control Valve Installation
2. Loosen the brackets and slide them down, out of the way of the NCV. Verify the brackets still adequately
support the components as intended. Do not remove the brackets completely.
3. If the first two options do not solve the interference, swap the AGCO nozzle body for a triple nozzle body
(provided in the kit) with the threaded connection for the Hawkeye valve facing away from the interference.

NOTE: Avoid removing of any existing boom hardware or support brackets where applicable during
installation of the Hawkeye nozzle control valves.
BOOM CABLE ROUTING AND CONNECTION
BEST PRACTICES AND RECOMMENDATIONS
• Route the Hawkeye primary and secondary boom cables along existing cables or plumbing to avoid cable
damage.
• Route cables to avoid pinch points and to avoid stretching the cable during folding and unfolding operations.
Pay special attention to cable routing near folding or break-away points.
• Route cables through existing cable retention devices as appropriate.
• When securing the primary and secondary boom cables on the implement, begin at the outer boom tips.
Adjust the cable position to provide sufficient slack between valve tee branches while working toward the
center of the implement.
• Route the boom cables on the inside of the boom frame when available.
• Secure cables using a zip tie at each nozzle control valve tee branch, and one between each tee branch along
the cable length.
SECONDARY BOOM CABLE ROUTING AND CONNECTIONS
NOTE: Please review the Best Practices and Recommendations section on page 15 before routing or securing
the boom cables on the implement. Do not connect or secure the cable until instructed to do so in
the procedure.
1. Locate the terminator on each of the secondary boom cables (refer to the Kit Contents section on page 7).

CHAPTER 4
16 AGCO RoGator RG900/1100/1300 Hawkeye® Installation Manual
FIGURE 5. Secondary Cable ISOBUS Powell Terminator
NOTE: Verify the terminators are secured to the main cable trunk using a zip tie through the connector
retainer clip. If terminators are not secured, wire breakage could occur.
2. Route the secondary boom cables so they are located at the outer tips of the left and right boom.
3. Starting from the mid-boom fold point, feed the terminator end of the secondary boom cable through the
boom framework along existing cable or plumbing runs and through any existing cable retention devices as
appropriate.
NOTE: If there is interference between the connector and boom components, remove the 90° back shell
from the connector. Refer to Figure 7 on page 17.
4. If not already applied, apply a single short burst of corrosion inhibitor (Corrosion X HD (Raven P/N 222-0000-
020 or available from http://www.corrosionx.com/corrosionx-heavy-duty.html)) into the NCV connection. Be
sure the corrosion inhibitor has coated the NCV contacts and recessed portions of the connector.
NOTE: To determine is corrosion inhibitor has been applied, inspect for a thick liquid in the bottom of the
connector.
5. Starting with the nozzle control valve at the outer end of the boom, begin connecting the valve tee branches to
the nozzle control valves.
FIGURE 6. Securing Valve Branches
6. At each valve branch, adjust the cable as necessary to provide slack between nozzle control valve connections.
The large round connector on the secondary boom cable should reach to the mid-boom fold point after all
nozzle control valves are connected.
