ANTI-SEIZE LUBRICANT KIT 1
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 (M06) to all threaded parts upon
installation. Permatex Anti-seize lubricant is preferred, but other similar anti-seize
products may be used.

4Ultrasonic Sensor Installation
4.1 Ultrasonic Sensor Serial Number Arrangement
When installing the UC5 sensors, start with the smallest serial number on the left-hand side,
and proceed to the largest serial number on the right hand side. Each UC5 sensor has a serial
number stamped on the sensor housing.
Apply a light coating of the supplied Permatex Anti-seize grease (M06) to all
threaded parts upon installation.

4.2 Ultrasonic Sensor Mounting Guidelines
The following guidelines will ensure optimal sensor performance and prevent sensor
measurement error. These rules should be followed for both the wing sensors and the main
lift (middle) sensor.
1. In its lowest position, the sensor must be 9 inches (23 cm) or more from the ground.
2. Ensure that there are no obstructions within a 12-inch diameter circle projected directly
below the center of the sensor.
3. The sensor should be approximately vertical at normal operating heights.

4.3 Low Profile Bracket Mounting Guidelines
1. Minimize the distance between the bolts to prevent bending the bracket and prevent the
bracket from loosening over time.
2. Ensure the bracket is mounted tight against the bottom of the boom, minimizing the
distance between the boom structure and the angled flange.
Figure 6: Bracket Mounting Guidelines
A problem can arise if a sensor is not mounted correctly. It is possible for the
sensor to read off of the boom instead of the ground. This may only become
apparent once the control system is switched from soil to crop mode.
Also be careful that the sensor bracket does not collide with any other part of the
boom when the boom is folded to transport position. If possible, mount the sensor
brackets while the booms are folded to ensure they will not cause interference.
