SAFETY

Important: Hydraulics are under pressure. Never attempt to

open or work on a hydraulic system with the equipment running.

Care should always be taken when first opening a system that

was previously pressurized.

When disconnecting the hydraulic hoses or when purging is required, be aware

that the hydraulic oil within the machine system may be extremely hot and under

high pressure. Caution must be exercised. Any work carried out on the hydraulic

system must be performed in accordance with the machine manufacturerer’s

approved maintenance instructions. Raven Industries recommends that appropri-

ate protective equipment be worn when working on the hydraulic system. Ob-

jects or materials that are able to bypass the machine’s hydraulic filtration system

will adversely reduce performance and possibly damage the hydraulic valves.

Do not reverse the power leads. Doing so will cause severe damage to the

equipement. Always check to make sure that the power leads are connected to

the right polarity as marked. Ensure that the power cable is the last cable to be

connected.

3. To connect the supplied LS-Steer hose, you must first disconnect the

original tractor LS hose that connects between the orbital and the

tractor Priority Valve. Disconnect this original LS hose only from the

LS Port of the orbital.

4. Remove fitting from the LS PV port on the SmarTrax block and install the

supplied fitting.

5. Connect the supplied LS-steer hose (P/N 214-1000-026) to the LS-Steer

port on the SmarTrax Valve. Connect the opposite end of the hose to the

Load Sense Port on the orbital.

6. Use the original LS hose (that was previously removed from the

orbital), to connect directly to the LS-PV port on the SmarTrax Valve.

7. The Left-Steer hose (P/N 214-1000-025) connects to the A port of the

SmarTrax Valve and leads up towards the orbital where it will connect to

the orbital’s left steer port using a supplied tee connector.

8. The Right-Steer hose (P/N 214-1000-025) connects to the B port of the

Valve Bank and leads up towards the orbital where it will connect to the

orbital’s right steer port using a supplied tee connector and reducer fitting.

STEERING POSITION SENSOR

Mounting the Yaw Sensor

Installing the Raven Yaw Sensor is quick and easy. Raven recommends that

you keep the following points in mind while installing the sensor:

• The sensor is not weatherproof. Mount the sensor inside of the

machine’s cab or drivers compartment.

• Mount the sensor to a flat surface parallel to the ground with the

Raven logo facing up. The floor of the cab is generally ideal.

• Once mounted, the sensor should remain fixed in relation to the

vehicle. The sensor should not become loose or rotate due to machine

vibration or movement.

• The sensor should also be mounted in a location where it will not be

kicked or jarred during normal equipment operation.

• The cable does not need to be oriented in any way to the direction of

travel of the vehicle. Mount the sensor to with the cable routed to avoid

tripping hazards or damaging the cable or yaw sensor.

Wiring

Connections

Attach the wiring harness to the SmarTrax valve coil, pressure switch, and SPS.

Route the harness into the cab, securing it away from moving parts and heat

sources. For more instructions, refer to the Universal Kit Manual. Be sure the

rubber gasket is installed on the pressure switch connection.

The supplied SmarTrax controller bracket can be used to mount the controller in

the cab. The bracket attaches to the right A post pillar using the mount located

behind the small cover piece.

Manual # 016-0190-004

After installing the SmarTrax on your machine, always follow these start-up

procedures.

 Turn the wheels fully from side to side numerous times to remove air

from the hydraulic system.

Important: Time the wheels for a full left to right and

right to left time of approximately 8 - 10 seconds. Refer

to the Universal Kit Manual for additonal instructions on

this.

 Adjust the pressure switch to the most responsive setting. Refer to the

Universal Kit Manual for instructions on this.
