sensors 52 can be integral with the cylinders on which they are used or can be independent units an automated moldboard draft control system 100 can process information from one or more sensor valve or feedback source and issue control commands for adjustment of motor grader 10 more specifically a rotation sensor system 110 mounted on the hydraulic swivel provides moldboard angle information rotation sensor system 110 can include a rotary potentiometer or hall effect sensor connected to electronic controller 54 essentially measuring rotation on plate gear 30 andmay be associated with center shift cylinder 40 a wheel lean sensor system 120 associated with wheel lean control system 48 can include for example a rotary potentiometer hall effect sensor tilt sensor or inclinometer or a linear inductive sensor mounted at the pivot point or in the driving cylinder to provide information regarding wheel lean angle to electronic controller 54 a moldboard height sensor system 130 can be mounted on or in lift cylinders 42 44 to provide information regarding moldboard height again a linear inductive sensor rotary potentiometer or hall effect sensor may be suitable for providing information to electronic controller 54 a moldboard roll sensor system 140 can be mounted directly to the moldboard to provide fore and aft roll information of the moldboard a tilt sensor or gyroscope may be used to provide moldboard roll information to electronic controller 54 moldboard roll system 140 also can include sensors associated.
