Important Safety Information
Recommendations and Best Practices
Point of Reference
Instructions provided generally assume you are standing behind the machine facing toward
the cab. More specific orientation may be provided as necessary to complete procedures.
Preparing for Install
lEnsure there are no issues with the machine hydraulic system (e.g., pump issues, faulty
hydraulic motors, fine metal deposits in the hydraulic hoses, etc.).
lVerify that the machine hydraulic system is using fresh oil and that the filters have
been recently changed.
lEnsure there are no issues with the steering system (e.g., worn bushings, faulty tie rod
ends, improperly adjusted steering components, etc.)
Aerials and Signal Interference
Due to the relatively low broadcast power from satellites, all GNSS receivers and aerials tend
to be susceptible to sources of signal noise and interference as compared to terrestrial
signals (i.e. radio or cellular).
Note: Poor GNSS signal reception may cause other systems which rely on GNSS solutions
(e.g. auto-steer systems, rate control systems, etc.) to disengage or may cause undesired
operation or results.
The following recommendations are intended to provide an optimal environment for GNSS
systems and provide the best up-time results, even as sources of interference may spike
throughout the day.
5

Chapter1
lMount GNSS antennas with a clear, unobstructed view of the sky.
lA minimum clearance of 1 m [39 in] is recommended around the GNSS antenna
to help avoid common issues with signal interference. Do not mount cellular,
radio, or other GNSS antennas within this area.
lMount the GNSS antenna to the tallest point of the machine. Avoid mounting the
antenna in a location where obstructions (e.g. bins/hoppers, cab roof lines, equip-
ment frame or structural elements, etc.) may rise into the antenna view.
Note: The antenna view typically starts 5° to 10° above horizontal from the base
of the antenna and extends over the skyward face of the receiver/antenna.
lGNSS is a line-of-sight system. A clear path must exist between the satellite and the
GNSS antenna.
lObstructions such as buildings, tree branches and limbs, as well as components
of the vehicle such as a fiberglass or metal roof, and etc. may cause signal multi-
path or completely block the GNSS receiver.
lElectrical and magnetic fields can interfere with GNSS or L-Band signals.
lAvoid mounting GNSS receivers or antennas near components such as radio or
cellular antennas, electrical motors, generators, alternators, strobe lights, radio
transmitters, radio or cellular antennas, etc.
lOver-head power lines, microwave dishes, radar, other active antennas, etc. can
interfere with GNSS signal.
lMount the Field Hub cellular and diversity antennas at least 1 m [39 in] apart. Avoid
mounting other cellular, radio, or GNSS aerials within this area.
Hose Routing
The word “hose” is used to describe any flexible, fluid carrying components. Use the
following guidelines and recommendations when connecting and routing hoses while
installing or maintaining this Raven system:
lLeave protective caps/covers over hose ends until connecting the end into the
hydraulic system to help prevent contaminants from entering the system.
6

Important Safety Information
lFollow existing hose runs already routed on the implement as much as possible.
Proper hose routing should:
lSecure hoses and prevent hoses from hanging below the implement.
lProvide sufficient clearance from moving components and operational zones
around shafts; universal joints and suspension components; pulleys, gears, belts,
and chains; moving linkages, cylinders, articulation joints, etc.
lProtect hoses from field debris and surrounding hazards (e.g. tree limbs, fence
posts, crop stubble, dirt clumps or rocks that may fall or be thrown by the imple-
ment).
lProtect hoses from sharp bends, twisting, or flexing over short distances and nor-
mal implement operation.
lEnsure sufficient length for free movement of the implement during normal oper-
ation and prevent pulling, pinching, catching, or rubbing, especially in artic-
ulation and pivot points. Clamp hoses securely to force controlled movement of
the hose.
lAvoid abrasive surfaces and sharp edges such as sheared or flame cut corners,
fastener threads or cap screw heads, hose clamp ends, etc.
lAvoid areas where the operator or service personnel might step or use as a grab
bar.
lDo not connect, affix, or allow hoses to come into contact with components with high
vibration forces, hot surfaces, or components carrying hot fluids beyond the tem-
perature rating of hose components.
lHoses should be protected or shielded if routing requires the hose to be exposed
to conditions beyond hose component specifications.
lAvoid routing hoses in areas where damage may occur due to build up of material (e.g.
dirt, mud, snow, ice, etc.).
Harness Routing
The word “harness” is used to describe any electrical cables and leads, both bundled and
unbundled. Use the following guidelines and recommendations when connecting and
routing harnesses while installing or maintaining this Raven system:
lLeave protective caps/covers over harness connectors until needed to avoid dirt and
moisture from contaminating electrical circuits.
7

Chapter1
lSecure the harness to the frame or solid structural members at least every 12 in [30
cm].
lFollow existing harness runs already routed on the implement as much as possible.
Proper harness routing should:
lSecure harnessing and prevent the harness from hanging below the implement.
lProvide sufficient clearance from moving components and operational zones
around shafts; universal joints and suspension components; pulleys, gears, belts,
and chains; moving linkages, cylinders, articulation joints, etc.
lProtect harnessing from field debris and surrounding hazards (e.g. tree limbs,
fence posts, crop stubble, dirt clumps or rocks that may fall or be thrown by the
implement).
lProtect harnessing from sharp bends, twisting, or flexing over short distances and
normal implement operation.
lConnectors and splices should not be located at bending points or in harness sec-
tions that move.
lEnsure sufficient length for free movement of the implement during normal oper-
ation and prevent pulling, pinching, catching, or rubbing, especially in artic-
ulation and pivot points. Clamp harnessing securely to force controlled
movement of the harness.
lAvoid abrasive surfaces and sharp edges such as sheared or flame cut corners,
fastener threads or cap screw heads, hose clamp ends, etc.
lDo not connect, affix, or allow harnessing to come into contact with components with
high vibration forces, hot surfaces, or components carrying hot fluids beyond the tem-
perature rating of harness components.
lHarnessing should be protected or shielded if routing requires the hose to be
exposed to conditions beyond harnessing component specifications.
lAvoid routing harnesses in areas where damage may occur due to build up of material
(e.g. dirt, mud, snow, ice, etc.).
lAvoid routing harnesses in areas where the operator or service personnel might step or
use as a grab bar.
Note: Avoid applying direct spray or pressure washing of electrical components and
connections. High pressure streams and sprays can penetrate seals, cause corrosion, or
otherwise damage electrical components. When performing maintenance:
8

Important Safety Information
lInspect electrical components and connectors for corrosion, damaged pins or hous-
ings, etc. Repair or replace components or harnessing as necessary.
lEnsure connectors are kept clean and dry. Apply dielectric grease to the sealing sur-
faces of all connections exposed to moisture, dirt, debris, and other contaminates.
Repair or replace harnessing as necessary.
lClean electrical components with pressurized air, aerosol electrical cleaning agent, or
low pressure rinse.
lRemove visible surface water from electrical components and connections using pres-
surized air or an aerosol cleaning agent. Allow components to dry thoroughly before
reconnecting cables.
