Install the Tilt Sensor for RoGator

Locate the open position between the bottom hinge plate and the hose bracket on the yaw hinge tube on the center rack.

Using a provided clamping U-bolt, loosely install the rotary sensor strap bracket to the vertical tube on the front side of the center rack.

Note:  The bracket labeled “Tilt 2” goes on the right hand boom. The bracket labeled “Tilt 1” goes on the left hand boom.

On the front slanted tube on the front of the boom, use two provided clamping U-bolts to loosely install the rod end bracket to the boom. The holes will extend toward the center of the machine.

Install the rotary sensor link to the rotary sensor bracket arm to the rod end bracket.

Using two wrenches, secure the rotary sensor link.

Adjust the rotary sensor bracket and the rotary sensor strap until the rotary sensor arm is horizontal.

Repeat this procedure on the boom for the opposite side.

Note:  The sensor brackets can be installed higher or lower on the vertical tube as needed to provide clearance between mounting hardware and machine hoses.

If mounting is changed from the images shown, be sure to validate during setup that the voltage for each boom changes at least 2.0V between tilted fully up and fully down.

Voltage should always be between 0.6V and 4.4V.
