Attach the run of the new (U) Tee to the branch of the existing Tee. Reconnect the existing hose to the run of the (U) Tee. Connect the (P) 90° hose end to the branch of the (U) Tee. Connect the straight hose end to port A on the FieldPilot valve. Disconnect the right side hose from the inline Tee.
FieldPilot® 11. Install Steering Disengage Switch (Kit 91-07011) The steering disengage kit (Z) is used to automatically disengage FieldPilot when the steering wheel is turned. The magnets mount on the steering shaft or other rotating part of the steering wheel and the sensor mounts so that there is a 1/8″ clearance between the sensor and magnet. Figure 1-11: Install Steering Disengage Switch (Kit 91-07011) 12.
FieldPilot® 13. RECOMMENDED ELECTRONICS INSTALLATION The Steering Control Module (SCM) should be mounted securely to the floor of the cab as far forward in the cab as possible. The control console can be mounted to the operator’s preference. The GPS antenna should be mounted as far forward as possible on top of the cab on a metal surface of at least 4″ square. Figure 1-13: Recommended Electronics Installation Console SCM GPS 16 www.teejet.
FieldPilot® 14. VERIFY OPERATION OF HYDRAULICS AND SET THE STEERING CONTROL RATE Clean and pick up the area around the vehicle and make certain that it is safe to operate. Start the engine and check hydraulic connections for leaks. Rotate the steering wheel from one extreme to the other and back to center, check for leaks. While steering through the extremes of movement, check the cables and hoses for wear points and strain, adjust as necessary.
