4Pre‐InstallationChecklist
Thepre‐installchecklistisnecessarytochecktheexistingsprayerfunctionalitybeforetheinstallation.
1. Unfoldthesprayeroveraflat,unobstructedarea(i.e.nopowerlines…etc.).
2. Ensureallboom‐foldoperationsarefunctional(placeacheckmarkinboxesbelow).
3. Bringenginetofield‐operationalRPMandrecordbelow.
4. Recordthetime(seconds)ittakesforafullstrokeforallboomfunctions.Toensurerepeatable
measurements,taketheaverageof3trials.
5. NotallsprayerswillhavethefunctionslistedbelowinFigure3.

Ensuretheboomhassufficienttravelsoitdoesnotcontactthegroundduringthesetests.

6UltrasonicSensorInstallation
6.1. UltrasonicSensorMountingGuidelines
Thefollowingguidelineswillensureoptimalsensorperformanceandpreventsensormeasurement.
1. Initslowestposition,thesensormustbe9inches(230mm)ormorefromtheground.
2. Ensurethattherearenoobstructionswithina12inch(300mm)diametercircleprojecteddirectlybelow
thecenterofthesensor.
3. Thesensorshouldbeapproximatelyverticalatnormaloperatingheights.



Figure11:BracketMountingGuidelines
6.2. LowProfileBracketMountingGuidelines
1. Minimizethedistancebetweentheboltstopreventbendingthebracketandpreventthebracketfrom
looseningovertime.
2. Ensurethebracketismountedtightagainstthebottomoftheboom,minimizingthedistancebetween
theboomstructureandtheangledflange.

Aproblemcanariseifasensorisnotmountedcorrectly.Thismayonlybecomeapparentoncethecontrol
systemisswitchedfromsoiltocropmode.
Becarefulthatthesensorbracketdoesnotcollidewithanyotherpartoftheboomwhentheboomis
foldedtotransportposition.Ifpossible,mountthesensorbracketswhiletheboomsarefoldedtoensure
theywillnotcauseinterference.

6.3. RainflapInstallation

Rainflapsareonlyinstalledinthewingsensorbrackets.
1. Insertonesideoftherainflaprodintothepre‐benthingetabonthesensorbracket.(Figure12)

Figure12:RainflapRodinPre‐BentHingeTab
2. Aligntheothersideoftherainflaprodwiththeunbenthingetab.(Figure13)

Figure13:AlignRainflapRod
3. Bendthehingetabinwardovertherainflaproduntilthehingetabfitssecurelyinthedetentgrooveon
thebacksideofthesensorbracket.(Figure14)


4. Ensuretherainflapactuatessmoothlywhenthebracketisturnedupsidedownandreturnstotheopen
positionwhenthesensorbracketisreturnedtoitsoperatingposition(sensorpointingdownwards
towardtheground).
