Norac 7470BC-01 Installation guide

  • Hello! I've reviewed the Installation Manual for the NORAC main lift option, specifically the 44743 Bracket, as well as 43220-01, 50300 and 43764. The document provides detailed instructions on how to install the sensor system, including mounting the bracket, connecting the sensor, and setting up the software. I understand the importance of proper sensor placement and avoiding obstructions, based on the provided documentation. I'm here to help with any questions you have about the installation process or troubleshooting.
  • What should I do before starting the installation?
    What is the recommended torque for the M8 nut when mounting the sensor?
    What should be avoided when mounting the sensor?
    What is the minimum distance the sensor should be from the ground at its lowest position?
