Figure 1 – System Components and General Location
NOTICE:
Every effort has been made to ensure the
accuracy of the information contained in this
manual. All parts supplied are selected
specially to fit the sprayer to facilitate a
complete installation. However, NORAC
cannot guarantee all parts fit as intended due
to the variations of the sprayer by the
manufacturer. Please read this manual in
its entirety before attempting installation.
ATTENTION:
When installing the UC4+ Spray Height
Control system please be aware that at a
point in the installation your sprayer booms
will be inoperative until the installation is
complete. Any installation procedure
requiring boom movement will need to be
done first. Once the hydraulics have been
disconnected you must complete the
electrical installation before the booms
become operative.
