Hydraulic

Safety

Precautions

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 manufacturer’s

approved maintenance instructions. Raven Industries recommends that

appropriate protective equipment be worn when working on the hydraulic

system.Objects or materials that are able to bypass the machine’s hydraulic

filtration system will adversely reduce performance and possibly damage the

hydraulic valves.

Electrical Safety

Precautions

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

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

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

connected.

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.

OUNTING

THE

NIVERSAL

RACKET

AND

ALVE

1. Attach pressure switch to PS port on SmarTrax valve before mounting

valve to ensure proper clearances.

2. Using the t-shaped bracket, mount the valve on the right side of the

machine, either between the steps (by drilling holes in front of the rear

fender), or by using the steel plate on the lower right front corner of the

cab.

Remember: The supplied hoses are meant to reach to the side

of the tractor and will have excess length when the valve is

mounted on the corner of the cab.

Installing Load

Sense Lines

1. Remove the steering load sense line from the pump located on the right

side of the tractor, in front of the rear tire.

2. Trace the load sense line from the orbital back to be sure you have the

correct line. The orbital load sense line is the smallest of the 5 fittings

that are on the orbital and is located between two of the larger fittings.

3. Attach the 90 degree end of the supplied hose (P/N 214-1000-443) to

the open Load Sense Port on the tractor pump.

4. Route the hose to the SmarTrax valve and connect it to the LS PV Port

using a 90 degree fitting.

5. Attach the 90 degree end of the supplied short adapter hose (P/N 214-

1000-447) to the LS Steer Port.

6. Route the original steering load sense line to the SmarTrax valve and

connect it to the adapter hose that is attached to the LS Steer Port.

Installing the

Pressure and

Tank Lines

1. Locate the pressure line on the steering orbital. (if you are sitting in the

cab, it is the front, lower right port on the valve).

2. Mark the pressure line and remove it from the orbital.

3. Remove the tank line (located above the pressure line on the orbital)

and install a supplied tee on the port.

4. Attach the original tank line to the top of the tee you just installed.

5. Attach the supplied hose (P/N 214-1000-445) to the tee using the

supplied reducer fitting and the 90 degree fitting.

6. Route the hose to the SmarTrax valve and attach it to the “T” port using

a 90 degree fitting.

7. Attach a supplied tee to the pressure port on the orbital.

8. Attach the original machine pressure line to the top of the tee fitting.

9. Using a supplied reducer and 90 degree fitting (if needed), attach the

hose (P/N 214-1000-445) to the tee.

10. Route the hose to the SmarTrax block and attach it to the “P” port using

a 90 degree fitting (if needed).

Steer Lines

Steer Line Basics

The left and right steer lines from the orbital attach to the steel lines on the right

side of the machine. The right steer port is next to the pressure port on the orbital.

The left steer port is next to the tank port. Follow the directions below to install

the left and right steer lines.

Installation

1. Mark the hoses and steel lines with ‘Left’ and ‘Right’, then disconnect

them.

2. Attach the supplied tee fittings to the steel lines. Do not re-attach the

original hoses.

3. Attach the 90 degree end of the hose (P/N 214-1000-444) to the branch

port of each tee.

4. Route the hoses to the SmarTrax valve.

5. Attach the right steer hose to the B port and the left steer hose to the A

port using 90 degree or 45 degree fittings.

Balance Valve

1. Remove the -6 JIC fittings that are in the A and B ports on the

counterbalance valve.

2. Install the supplied -10 SAE O-Ring (M) to -6 ORFS (M) fittings into

the valve.

3. Attach the Right Steer hose (from the orbital) to the B port and the Left

Steer hose to the A port.

4. Attach the supplied hose (P/N 214-1000-446) to the back of the counter

balance.

5. Connect the hoses to the previously installed tees on the left and right

steel lines. The counterbalance port on the opposite side of the A port

will connect to the left line and the port on the opposite side of the B

port will connect to the right line.

ROCEDURES

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

procedures.

• Make sure the Steering Position Sensor does not over-extend or over-compress

when turning the wheels.

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

hydraulic system.

• Time the wheels for full left to right and right to left time of approximately 6

seconds. Refer to the Universal Kit Manual for instructions on this.

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

Universal Kit Manual for instructions on this.
