3. Align the NCV2 with the port of the nozzle body while being careful not to lose the O-ring.
NOTE:
The NCV2 should always be located on the port closest to the wet boom tube unless interferences do
not allow this. This will create the least amount of stress on the nozzle body and should allow
satisfactory cable routing.
4. Turn the fly nut of the NCV2 to engage the threads of the nozzle body. Tighten the fly nut using the supplied
universal wrench (P/N 333-0002-490), included in the system service kit, until the NCV2 no longer rotates
freely, or approximately 50 in-lbs.
5. Repeat step 1 through step 4 for each nozzle location on the spray boom.
NOTE:
A leak test is recommended after the installation is complete.
BOOM CABLE ROUTING AND CONNECTION
BEST PRACTICES AND RECOMMENDATIONS
• Route the Hawkeye® 2 inner, mid, and outer boom cables along existing cables or plumbing to avoid cable
damage.
• Route cables to avoid pinch points and to avoid stretching the cable during folding and unfolding operations.
Pay special attention to cable routing near folding or break-away points.
• Route cables through existing cable retention devices as appropriate.
• When securing the inner, mid, and outer boom cables on the implement, begin at the outer boom tips. Adjust
the cable position to provide sufficient slack between valve tee branches while working toward the center of
the implement.
• Route the boom cables on the inside of the boom frame when possible.
• Secure cables using a zip tie at each nozzle control valve tee branch, and one between each tee branch along
the cable length.
BOOM CABLE ROUTING AND CONNECTIONS (INNER, MIDDLE, AND OUTER BOOM CABLES)
1. Locate the boom cables included with the Hawkeye® 2 installation kit. There are typically six boom cables for a
single system:
•
2 inner boom cables (may be left and right specific).
•
2 mid boom cables.
•
2 outer boom cables.
2. For each boom cable, beginning with the inner boom cables, locate the end of the cable with the rotating
locking collar.
3. Start with the rotating locking collar end of the cable near the middle of the center rack and route the cable so
the first group of 8-pin connector drops align with the group of NCVs on the center rack of the boom. The
inner cable will then route through the boom pivot point, towards the end of the boom, following plumbing
routing whenever possible.
