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 with the mounting base behind
(Figure 8) or in front of the tube (Figure
6).
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.
4. Mount the NORAC UC4+ ultrasonic sensor
(E02) into the sensor brackets. The sensors
should be oriented forward (ahead) of the
boom (see Figure 6 and Figure 8).
When installing the UC4+ sensors
(E02), start with the smallest serial
