PREPARATION
1. Before beginning the installation, thoroughly clean the vehicle to remove dirt and contaminants that might
get into the hydraulic circuit.
2. Park the vehicle on a clean, level oor with adequate clearance to work around.
3. Do not attempt to loosen any hydraulic ttings while the engine is running.
4. Allow the motor and the hydraulics to cool until it is no more than warm to the touch before proceeding.
5. Prior to loosening any hydraulic ttings, be sure to have the appropriate plugs and caps available in order
to limit loss of hydraulic uid from the open ttings.
PREVENT HYDRAULIC SYSTEM CONTAMINATION. It is essential to thoroughly clean hydraulic
system ttings and hose connections prior to disconnecting or removing them. Use a spray
cleaner such as “Brake Clean” to prevent hydraulic system contamination. Note that o-rings used
on ORB and ORFF type ttings may be damaged by solvent cleaners such as “Brake Clean”. If a tting is to
be cleaned internally, the o-ring should rst be removed and cleaned with a berless cloth.
IMPORTANT
WARNING: HOT, HIGH PRESSURE FLUID HAZARD. Hydraulic oil may be hot and under
extreme pressure. To prevent serious injury or death, relieve system pressure and allow the
system to cool before repairing or disconnecting. Wear proper hand and eye protection when
searching for leaks, using wood or cardboard instead of hands. Keep all hydraulic components in good
repair.
WARNING: PINCH POINT HAZARD! To prevent serious injury or death, avoid unsafe practice
while manually operating hydraulic steering circuits. Keep others away and stay clear of
mechanical steering linkages.
TO AVOID EXCESS LEAKAGE, DO NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL WHILE
THE FITTINGS ON THE MANUAL STEERING VALVE ARE DISCONNECTED.

INSTALLATION
If there are questions concerning the installation of the FieldPilot system on this vehicle, or due to
the changes in component specications the parts supplied in the kit are not exactly as presented
in this document, please contact your dealer or TeeJet Customer service representative for
clarication before installation. TeeJet Technologies is not responsible for misuse or incorrect installation of
the system.
NOTE: BE VERY CAREFUL TO ABSOLUTELY SECURE ALL CABLES AND HOSES SO THAT THEY
DON’T INTERFERE WITH THE MANY MOVING PARTS OF THE MACHINE!
Overview of the Machine
• The FieldPilot valve will mount on the left side of the machine on the left fender.
• All hydraulic connections will be made at the orbital and can be best accessed from the left side of the
machine.
• The GPS antenna will mount on the hood.
• The cables will enter the bottom-right-rear of the cab
NOTE: All references to left and right are stated as if the user is seated in the driver’s seat.

The Ford Versatile 946 has an open center steering orbital. The pressure relief valve on the steering circuit
is mounted on the lower left side of the engine. Remove the hose between Pressure Relief Valve and the
Orbital and discard. Oil leaving the Pressure Relief Valve will be routed to the FieldPilot Valve P port and
then from the FieldPilot Valve EF port to the P port of the Orbital. The Tank, A and B lines from the FieldPilot
Valve ports will tee in at the orbital as follows:
FieldPilot – Orbital

1. PREPARE THE FIELDPILOT VALVE
Install adapters (N) in the P & EF ports. Install adapters (T) in the A, B, & T ports. Then install adapters
(S) onto the three (T) adapters in the A, B, & T ports. Finish by installing adapters (P) onto adapters (N) in
the P & EF ports.

2. INSTALL THE FIELDPILOT VALVE BRACKET
The valve bracket will mount to the left fender of the vehicle. Drill a 13/32” hole 21” from outer edge of fender
and centered top to bottom. Mount the (I) bracket to the fender using (1) (G) 3/8” bolt, (1) (H) 3/8 nut and
(2) (B) 3/8” washers.
Figure 1-5: Install Mounting Bracket for FieldPilot Valve
3. MOUNT THE FIELDPILOT VALVE
Mount the FieldPilot Valve to the (I) bracket using parts (B, F, & H). Mount it so the P and T ports are
pointed at the cab and the EF port is pointed away from cab. The solenoids should be facing the back of the
tractor.

4. PREPARE ORBITAL VALVE
Before installing any hoses, disconnect and discard the Pressure hose between the Pressure Relief Valve
and the Orbital P port. Disconnect the Tank hose from the T port of the orbital and install the (R) #16 Run
Tee to this port. Connect the (Q) adaptor tting to the branch of the Tee. Reconnect the Tank hose to
the run of the Tee. Disconnect the hose from the L port. Install (O) #10 Run Tee to this port. Reconnect
the hose to the run of the Tee. Disconnect the hose from the R port. Install (O) #10 Run Tee to this port.
Reconnect the hose to the run of the Tee.
Note: Additional hose length for the L & R ports may need to be pulled up from the underside of the tractor.

5. INSTALL PRESSURE HOSE
The FieldPilot Valve will get its pressure from the Pressure Relief Valve. Attach the straight end of hose (J)
to the Pressure Relief Valve and route it to the P port of the FieldPilot Valve.

6. INSTALL THE EF HOSE
Oil will exit the FieldPilot valve through the EF port to the orbital. Route the 90° end of the hose (K) to the P
port on the orbital. Connect the straight end of the hose (K) to the EF port on the FieldPilot valve.

7. INSTALL THE TANK HOSE
Route the 90° end of hose (L) to adapter (S) previously installed in the T port on the orbital. Connect the
straight end of the (L) hose to the T port of the FieldPilot Valve.
Figure 1-10: Install the Tank hose

8. INSTALL LEFT AND RIGHT STEER HOSES
The steer hoses will connect to the Run Tees installed at the orbital. In Step 4, the left and right steer hoses
were disconnected, Run Tees were installed, and the hoses were reconnected. Now connect the 90° ends of
hoses (M) to the branch of the tees and route the hoses to the A and B ports of the FieldPilot Valve.
The steering disengage kit (T) is used to automatically disengage FieldPilot when the steering wheel is
turned. The magnets mount on the steering shaft or other rotating part of the steering wheel and the sensor
mounts so that there is a 1/8” clearance between the sensor and magnet.
Connect item (A) to the connector on the SCM harness labeled Remote Engage/Disengage. Install the push
button in a location that is easily accessible during operation of the machine. This switch (A) is not required
if the optional foot switch 32-04020 is used.
Figure 1-13: Engage/Disengage Switch
11. INSTALL THE VALVE CONTROL CABLE
Connect the FieldPilot valve control cable (E) to the coils on the FieldPilot valve and route the cable into the
cab. Connect it to the SCM harness. Do not be concerned at this time about which connector is connected to
which solenoid coil.

12. RECOMMENDED ELECTRONICS INSTALLATION
The Steering Control Module (SCM) should be mounted securely to the oor of the cab as far forward in the
cab as possible. The control console can be mounted to the operator’s preference. The GPS antenna should
be mounted as far forward as possible on top of the hood on a metal surface of at least 4” square.
The Articulated Gyro Module (AGM) should be mounted towards the rear of the vehicle on a at surface that
is horizontal to the ground. Plug the CAN extension cable to the AGM Harness (45-07716) as well as the
CAN terminator. Route the other end of the CAN extension cable towards the cab and connect to the CAN on
the SCM harness.

13. VERIFY OPERATION OF HYDRAULICS AND SET THE STEERING
CONTROL RATE
Clean and pick up the area around the vehicle and make certain that it is safe to operate. Start the engine
and check hydraulic connections for leaks. Rotate the steering wheel from one extreme to the other and back
to center, check for leaks. While steering through the extremes of movement, check the cables and hoses for
wear points and strain, adjust as necessary.
The nal oil ow rate adjustment is accomplished through the Matrix console. The
target lock to lock time is 8 seconds and the valve frequency is 175. Refer to the
Matrix manual for further instructions.
NOTE: To activate the manual overrides, a tool such as a small screwdriver or allen wrench must be inserted
into the end of the coil to depress the override button.
WARNING: PINCH POINT HAZARD! To prevent serious injury or death, avoid unsafe practice
while manually operating hydraulic steering circuits. Keep others away and stay clear of
mechanical steering linkages.
14. COMPLETE ELECTRONIC INSTALLATION
Refer to the owner’s manual supplied with the automated steering system to complete the electronic
installation and setup.
