Bucket Sensor Mounting
Thebucketsensoristhemostchallengingsensortomounttokeepthesensorandcablesprotected.
Theeasiestandmostaccuratelocationtomountthesensorisonthetopleftsideofthebucket—
fromthecabperspective—withthearrowpointingforward(towardthedirectionoftravel).The
safest,butlessaccurate,locationtomountthesensorisontheleftsideofthedog‐bone;see“Dog‐
boneSensorMounting(Optional)”onpage12.
Whenmountingthebucketsensor,keepthefollowinginmind(Figure14):
• Positionthebucketatzerodegreesbeforemountingthesensor.
• Sensororientation(Up/Forward,etc.)ref erencesthepositionofthebucketatzerodegrees.

Fabricationofasensorguardandcableprotectionisrequiredtominimizedamage.
Becausethisvarieswidely,suchspecificprotectionisnotincludedintheTopconkitandmustbe
suppliedbytheinstaller.
TS‐i3sensorsareonlymountedontheleftorrightofthebucket.
Whenusingaquick ‐releasebucket,mountthesensortothequick‐release,notthebucket.
