2 GENERAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Figure 1 depicts the general system layout of the UC4+ Spray Height Control system. Some
of the parts shown may be different and your UC4+ kit may not include all the shown parts.
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.

Example:
The use of dielectric grease is not recommended on any NORAC electrical connections.
To ensure all stainless steel hardware does not gall or seize apply a light coating of the
supplied Permatex Anti-seize grease to all threaded parts upon installation. Permatex
Anti-seize lubricant is preferred, but other similar anti-seize products may be used.

4 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
4.1 WING SENSOR INSTALLATION
1. Assemble the Breakaway Sensor
Mounting Brackets (B13) as show in
Figure 4 and Figure 5.
Figure 4: Breakaway Sensor Bracket
Exploded View
Figure 5: Breakaway Sensor Mounting
Bracket Assembly
To assemble the breakaway sensor
bracket:
a) Assemble the bolt and nut into the
collar.
b) Grease the bottom edge of the
collar and the angled tube of the
base.
c) Place the collar onto the angled tube
of the mounting base.
d) Install the spring between the collar
and the upper ring of the base.
e) Insert tube through assembly and
tighten the collar
2. Mount the sensor bracket onto the
boom.
If possible, mount the sensor
brackets while the booms are in
their folded position to ensure
that they will not interfere with
anything when the boom is folded
for transport.
3. The sensor mounting brackets can be
installed on the 45 degree tube using
the provided adapter plate (B16).
Then attach B13 directly to B16.
Mounting the sensor bracket to
the break-away section of the
boom may cause the boom to
drop suddenly as a break-away
occurs. This will occur on break-
away sections which lift as they
break away.
For optimal boom tip protection,
it is recommended that the
sensor be mounted within
approximately two feet (60cm) of
the boom tip.
Please refer to the UC4+ Spray Height
Control system warranty at the end of
the UC4+ Spray Height Control
Operator’s Manual (M01) for
implications.
