5.4 Wing Sensor Installation
1. The wing sensor mounting brackets (B20) are the two brackets with the shorter mounting
flange.
2. The sensor bracket should be oriented forward (ahead of the boom).
3. Typically the best mounting location for the wing sensor brackets will be near the end of
the boom tips, approximately two feet (60cm) from the end.
4. Depending on the boom design, some breakaway sections will lift upwards as they break
back. If the sensor is mounted to this portion of the boom, the system will force the boom
downwards towards the ground as the boom folds backwards.
5. Mount the NORAC ultrasonic sensor into the sensor bracket and run the sensor cable
either through hole in the back or through the side cut-out and behind the bracket. Ensure
the cable is clear of moving parts and will not be damaged during folding.

6. Exhaust clamps (B13) can be used if mounting the sensor brackets to a portion of the boom
with round tubing.
