STEERING SYSTEM INSTALLATION
This chapter describes the installation of all the
different steering systems, hydraulic, SmarTrax MD and
steer ready tractors. Look carefully at the system
overviews to know which parts of the installation are
applicable.
MOUNTING HARNESSES
When installing an autosteer system, the power cables
should always be connected to the battery. Two
options are possible, a Basic Harness (1-115-8000-141)
or an Implement Ready Harness (1-115-8000-060
frontmount or 1-115-8000-315 midmount). The
differcence between these harnesses is the IBBC
connector, this one is included at an Implement Ready
(IR) Harness (Figure 1)
Power harness: an Implement Ready power harness is
mounted from the battery to the rear of the tractor. A
Basic power harness is mounted from the battery to
the chassis harness. Make sure that the relays and
fuses are mounted in a dry, clean and accessible spot
(Figure 2).
Which harness will be connected to the Power Harness
depends on which type of steering will be installed.
See system overviews on pages 6 - 10. All the
harnesses with a hard casing should be mounted
outside the cabin, all the harnesses with a braided
sleeve should be mounted inside the cabin. At all time,
find a good location where the cabling can enter the
cabin.
In addition, a number of guidelines have been
established for the assembly of all types of cable
harnesses:
Mount the relays fixed and in a dry, clean and
accessible spot (Figure 2).
The red wire is + (12V). The black wire is
(ground). Make sure that the first part of the
red wire (part in between battery and fuses)
cannot damage during operation.
