Hitch Sensor
The hitch sensor is the most challenging sensor to mount to keep the sensor and cables protected.
If a quick release coupler is installed on the excavator, the most accurate and safe place to mount the
sensor is on the inside of the coupler
.
An alternative mounting location is on the left side of the DogBone, either on the inside or the outside
of the DogBone itself; see
“DogBone Sensor (Optional Mounting Location)” on page 9.
If no hitch sensor is used select None (hanging attachment).
When mounting the attachment sensor, keep the following in mind (Figure 12):
• Position the hitch on the ground (bucket flat on the ground) before mounting the sensor.
• Mount the sensor between the attachment pivot pin and the linkage pin as shown in Figure 12.
• Sensor orientation (Left/Right)
Figure 12: Quick-release and Attachment Sensor Mounting
TS-i3 sensors are only mounted on the left or right of the DogBone or quick-release.
