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.
