GENERAL
Raven Industries recommends that appropriate protective equipment be worn at all times when working on the
hydraulic system.
Never attempt to open or work on a hydraulic system with the equipment running. Care should always be
taken when opening a system that has been previously pressurized.
When disconnecting the hydraulic hoses or purging is required, be aware that the hydraulic fluid may be
extremely hot and under high pressure. Caution must be exercised.
Any work performed on the hydraulic system must be done in accordance with the machine manufacturer’s
approved maintenance instructions.
When installing SmarTrax hydraulics or performing diagnostics, maintenance, or routine service, ensure that
precautions are taken to prevent any foreign material or contaminants from being introduced into the
machine’s hydraulic system. Objects or materials that are able to bypass the machine’s hydraulic filtration
system will reduce performance and possibly damage the SmarTrax hydraulic valve.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR HOSE ROUTING
The word “hose” is used to mean all flexible fluid carrying components. Follow existing hoses as much as possible
and use these guidelines:
Hoses should not contact or be attached to:
Components with high vibration forces
Components carrying hot fluids beyond component specifications
Avoid contact with any sharp edge or abrading surfaces such as, but not limited to:
Sheared or flame cut edges
Edges of machined surfaces
Fastener threads or cap screw heads
Ends of adjustable hose clamps
Routing should not allow hoses to:
Hang below the unit
Have the potential to become damaged due to exposure to the exterior environment. (i.e. tree limbs, debris,
attachments)
Be placed in areas of or in contact with machine components which develop temperatures higher than the
temperature rating of hose components
Hoses should be protected or shielded if it needs to route near hot temperatures beyond hose component
specifications
Hoses should not have sharp bends
CAUTION

ELECTRICAL
GENERAL
Always verify that the power leads are connected to the correct polarity as marked. Reversing the power leads
could cause severe damage to the equipment.
Ensure that the power cable is the last cable to be connected.
A minimum of 12 VDC is required for system operation with a maximum of 15 VDC.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR WIRE ROUTING
The word “harness” is used to mean all electrical leads and cables, bundled and unbundled. When installing
harness, secure it at least every 30 cm (12in) to the frame. Follow existing harness as much as possible and use
these guidelines:
Harness should not contact or be attached to:
Lines and hoses with high vibration forces or pressure spikes
Lines and hoses carrying hot fluids beyond harness component specifications
Avoid contact with any sharp edge or abrading surfaces such as, but not limited to:
