CHAPTER 1
2 Viper/Viper 4+ Installation & Operation Manual
• Follow all safety labels affixed to the system components. Be sure to keep safety labels in good condition and
replace any missing or damaged labels. Contact a local Raven dealer to obtain replacements for missing or
damaged safety labels.
When operating the machine after installing the ROS device, observe the following safety measures:
• Be alert and aware of surroundings.
• Do not operate the ROS device while under the influence of alcohol or an illegal substance.
• Remain in the operator’s position in the machine at all times when the ROS device is engaged in product
control functions or while any additional automated features are operating. Disable these functions or features
when exiting the operator’s position.
• Determine and remain a safe working distance from other individuals. The operator is responsible for disabling
the ROS device or any optional features when the safe working distance has been diminished.
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
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
