3 INSTALLATION
1. Install the UC4+ Control Panel (E01) in the
cab of the sprayer. Mount the panel where it
will be clearly visible and within easy reach
of the operator.
A good spot to mount the UC4+ control
panel is on the right hand side of the cab to
the Roll Over Protection Bar (ROP). Four
pilot holes for the screws provided need to be
drilled to facilitate the control panel
mounting.
Another option is to purchase an adapter for
the flexible panel mount that has a 3/8" NC
threaded stud on the end to bolt through an
existing mount. You can find these at your
local outdoor store as a RAM mount part
number RAM-B-236. (See
http://www.ram-mount.com/)

2. Connect the power cable (C10) to the UC4+
Control Panel in the sprayer cab. Ensure that
both plugs (P16A and P4) are connected to
the panel (Figure 2).
Ensure that the UC4+ Control Panel is
OFF for the remaining installation
(Bottom of switch pressed IN). Use
caution when handling the 12V power
line of the sprayer wiring.
3. Connect the 3-pin AMP connector (P3) on
the C10 cable to an auxiliary power
connection inside the sprayer cab. If an
appropriate connector(s) cannot be found it
may be necessary to cut off the connector(s)
and splice into the existing wiring.
4. Route the free end (R16) of C10 to the
exterior of the cab, to the vicinity of the
tractor hitch. This connector will provide
your hitch connection. Route the cable
accordingly and connect it to P16 on the
sprayer. The procedure for the installation of
the UC4+ system is now complete.
5. For optimal performance of the UC4 system,
there should be very little play at the hitch
clevis. The addition of polymer washers can
help tighten up this connection (Figure 3).

6. Power on the UC4+ panel, if “HD3” shows
up as your sprayer type, you can start the
ReTune process as per the UC4+ Operator
Manual. This will tune the UC4+ hydraulic
parameters to your tractor hydraulic system.
7. If no type is selected yet, start the Install as
per the UC4+ Operator Manual.
