Important Safety Information: 3

CHAPTER 1

IMPORTANT SAFETY

INFORMATION

Read this manual and all operation and safety instructions included with the implement and/or controller carefully

before installing the system.

• Follow all safety information presented within this manual.

• If you require assistance with any portion of the installation or service of Raven equipment, contact a local

Raven dealer for support.

• Follow all safety labels affixed to system components. Be sure to keep safety labels in good condition and

replace any missing or damaged labels. To obtain replacements for missing or damaged safety labels, contact a

local Raven dealer.

When operating the machine, observe the following safety measures:

• Be alert and aware of surroundings.

• Do not operate agricultural equipment while under the influence of alcohol or an illegal substance.

• Remain in the operator’s position in the machine at all times when equipment is engaged. Disable system

functions or features when exiting from the operator’s seat and machine.

• Do not drive the machine with equipment enabled on any public road.

• Determine and remain a safe working distance from other individuals. The operator is responsible for disabling

the system when the safe working distance has been diminished.

• Ensure the system is disabled prior to starting any maintenance work on the system or the implement.

AGRICULTURAL CHEMICAL SAFETY

• Thoroughly bleed pressure from chemical lines and rinse the system with clean water prior to installing or

servicing fittings, hoses, valves, or nozzles in the application system.

• Always follow safety labels and instructions provided by the chemical manufacturer or supplier.

• Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment as recommended by the chemical and/or equipment

manufacturer.

• Fill, flush, calibrate, and decontaminate chemical application systems in an area where runoff will not reach

ponds, lakes, streams, livestock areas, gardens, or populated areas.

• Avoid inhaling chemical dust or spray particulate and avoid direct contact with any agricultural chemicals. Seek

immediate medical attention if symptoms of illness occur during, or soon after, use of agricultural chemicals,

products, or equipment.

• After handling or applying agricultural chemicals:

NOTICE

DANGER

CHAPTER 1

4 CAN Sidekick Pro Injection for Case IH 3/4XXX Installation and Operation Manual

• Thoroughly wash hands and face after using agricultural chemicals and before eating, drinking, or

using the rest room.

• Thoroughly flush or rinse equipment used to mix, transfer, or apply chemicals with water after use

or before servicing any component of the application system.

• Follow all federal, state, and local regulations regarding the handling, use, and disposal of agricultural

chemicals, products, and containers. Triple-rinse and puncture or crush empty containers before disposing of

them properly. Contact a local environmental agency or recycling center for additional information.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

• 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.

• Disconnect the system ECUs and control console before jump starting the vehicle or welding on any part of the

implement or machine.

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:

• Sheared or flame cut edges

• Edges of machined surfaces

• Fastener threads or cap screw heads

• Ends of adjustable hose clamps

• Wire exiting conduit without protection, either ends or side of conduit

• Hose and tube fittings

Routing should not allow harnesses 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 harness components

• Wiring should be protected or shielded if it needs to route near hot temperatures beyond harness component

specifications

Harnessing should not have sharp bends.

CAUTION

Important Safety Information: Instructions for Hose Routing 5

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Allow sufficient clearance from machine component operational zones such as:

• Drive shafts, universal joints and hitches (i.e. 3-point hitch)

• Pulleys, gears, sprockets

• Deflection and backlash of belts and chains

• Adjustment zones of adjustable brackets

• Changes of position in steering and suspension systems

• Moving linkages, cylinders, articulation joints, attachments

• Ground engaging components

For harness sections that move during machine operation:

• Allow sufficient length for free movement without interference to prevent: pulling, pinching, catching or

rubbing, especially in articulation and pivot points

• Clamp harnesses securely to force controlled movement to occur in the desired harness section

• Avoid sharp twisting or flexing of harnesses in short distances

• Connectors and splices should not be located in harness sections that move

Protect harnesses from:

• Foreign objects such as rocks that may fall or be thrown by the unit

• Buildup of dirt, mud, snow, ice, submersion in water and oil

• Tree limbs, brush and debris

• Damage where service personnel or operators might step or use as a grab bar

• Damage when passing through metal structures

• High pressure wash

INSTRUCTIONS FOR HOSE ROUTING

The word hoses 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 hoses 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

CHAPTER 1

6 CAN Sidekick Pro Injection for Case IH 3/4XXX Installation and Operation Manual

• 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

• Drive shafts, universal joints and hitches (i.e. 3-point hitch)

• Pulleys, gears, sprockets

• Deflection and backlash of belts and chains

• Adjustment zones of adjustable brackets

• Changes of position in steering and suspension systems

• Moving linkages, cylinders, articulation joints, attachments

Introduction: System Overview 7

CHAPTER 2

INTRODUCTION

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

The Raven Sidekick Pro injection system is designed to provide efficient and accurate application of liquid

chemicals applied from an injection module. Using a separate injection module, or tank, eliminates mixing

chemicals and reduces chemical waste, and simplifies equipment care and maintenance.

Sidekick Pro provides connectivity to a Raven CANbus system to allow an existing Raven CAN control console to

control the rate of the chemical injection system.

After proper installation and calibration of the injection system and Raven controller, including a set target rate for

the carrier and injected chemicals, the operator enables the product control system and the control console will

automatically maintain the flow regardless of vehicle speed or active boom sections.

Performance of the Raven injection system relies upon proper installation and maintenance of the complete

sprayer system. Please review this manual before installing or operating this system to help ensure proper setup

and follow instructions provided for proper care and maintenance of the Raven injection system.

INJECTION SYSTEM COMPONENTS

The Raven injection system consists of:

• Raven control console or Case Pro 700 controller

• Sidekick Pro injection pump(s)

• In-line mixer

• Chemical tanks

•Check valves

• Plumbing components including hoses, fittings, and valves

• Brackets and hardware to fasten above components to the machine
