Sensor Installation (SE Version - continued)
2) Once the location and orientation are determined,
mark and drill the 2 (two) Sensor mount holes (0.156”
or 5/32”) to accommodate the #6-32 screws. Refer to
Figure 32 for the proper hole spacing which is 2.20” or
56mm center to center.
3) Before attaching the SE Sensors to the vehicle, the
Sensor Element must be inserted into the center hole
by pressing it into the front of the SE Sensor Mount. If
the Sensor Element is already inserted into the SE
Sensor Mount, it may need to be rotated depending on
the orientation (proceed to Step 5). If the Sensor Ele-
ment is mounted in the Standard Metal Bracket re-
move it carefully pressing the rear of the Sensor Ele-
ment forward out of the Rubber Jacket.
4) Depending on the orientation of the SE Sensor Mount,
the Sensor Element must be positioned (rotated) such
that the “UP” Indicator (Figure 26 & Figure 27) is point-
ing upward prior to mounting to the vehicle. There is a
slight angle (approximately 3 degrees)
on the face of the Sensor Element
(indicate by the dotted line in Figure
28). This angle helps to compensate for
weight added to trucks which causes
the back end to lower. As a result, the
Sensor may point slightly toward the
ground. This could cause the Sensor to
detect reflected signals from the ground
if the angle was too extreme.
5) View the backside of the SE Sensor
Mount prior to attaching to the vehicle
to determine the best way to route the
Sensor Element wires. There are three
(3) wire slot guides available as indicat-
ed in Figure 34. Depending on the type
of installation, the Sensor Element wires can also run through a large center hole as
long as there is a similar size hole in the
bumper to accommodate the Sensor
connector.
6) Attach the SE Sensor Mount with the
correctly oriented Sensor Element to the
vehicle with the enclosed mounting hard-
ware. Make sure that the face of the
Sensor is perpendicular to the
ground. In situations where the face
of the Sensor is not perpendicular to the
ground, the Sensor’s vertical angle can
be adjusted by placing a shim between
the SE Sensor Mount and the bumper.
7) Make sure the Sensors are securely
fastened by tightening the Stainless Steel Nylon Lock Nuts to prevent the screws
from loosening due to vehicle vibration.
