Attach the Sensor to the Earth Drill hood,
ensuring the Sensor is fitted with the cable
facing towards the operator’s station. Hold
sensor in place for 10 seconds.
Sensor Mounting Kit
The Alignment Monitor is supplied with a spare
Sensor Mounting Kit. Fit the mounting plate
to the resin side of the sensor. Fix the plate in
place with screws supplied, adding medium
strength Loctite to the threads.
NOTE:
- Sensor must sit flat to the hood top plate.
- At room temperature approximately 50% of
ultimate bond strength will be achieved after 20
minutes, 90% after 24 hours and 100% after 72
hours.
- The adhesive strip is very strong. Attempting to
remove may cause damage to the sensor.
