First, insert the 24" GREEN/YELLOW GROUND LEAD into the 2-pin
power connector. This lead should be grounded to the vehicle. Next, plug
both of the 1/4" receptacles, on the HEADLIGHT TOGGLE SWITCH LEAD,
into the switch. Note: Both receptacles should be inserted into the spades
on same side of the switch. One receptacle should be positioned in the
middle spade. See the illustration below. Complete the connection by
plugging both 2-pin connectors together.
Remaining receptacle connects to either spade on the
SAME side of the switch.
12. Next, install the LIGHT TOWER. Position the tower arms into the receiving
pockets located on the undercarriage push beam. (Review the proper
undercarriage installation guidelines for your vehicle found near the back
of the manual.) Align the mounting holes in the light tower with those on
the push beam and insert two 1/2"-13 x 1-1/4" hex head cap screws. Secure
the screws with 1/2" washers and top lock nuts.
13. Proceed to install the PLOW HEADLIGHTS. Align one HEADLIGHT BALL
STUD MOUNT ADAPTER on the light tower tube with the mounting hole
and insert the threaded stud through each. Secure the headlight with one
1/2" split lock washer and hex nut. Note: All snowplows are shipped with
two BLACK DOME PLUGS that install at either end of the light tower. For
secure placement, apply a bead of silicone around the perimeter of the
plug prior to installation on the light tower. Connect the terminals from the
plow lights to the terminals on the vehicle wire harness. Repeat the
installation for the opposite headlight.
14. Align the four mount holes on the JOYSTICK CONTROL with the holes
located on the JOYSTICK BENCH MOUNT PEDESTAL. Note: The radius
on the pedestal should face the dashboard. Secure the joystick to the
pedestal with four 8-32 x 3/4" machine screws provided. Next, slide the
VELCRO STRAP through the slots cut in the pedestal. The metal D-RING
should be located on the side opposite of the dashboard. Wrap the strap
around the bench and fasten. Finally, connect the white power connector
from the vehicle wire harness to the connector on the control station. The
power switch on the joystick should be in the "OFF" position. Note: If you
received the vehicle harness with the headlight relay, there is an additional
white, 2-pin connector near the main power connector. This connector is
for the switch that operates your plow headlights. See the diagram on
page 36 for proper installation.
This completes the electrical assembly installation for the vehicle wire harness.
You are now ready to perform all of the test functions on the snowplow.
Insert one receptacle into middle spade.
Dome
Plug
Apply a thin bead of silicone around the inside
perimeter of the molded nylon dome plugs prior
to capping the light tower ends. The silicone will
help retain the plug inside of the light tower
mount tube.
EMERGENCY HITCH PIN
& HAIR PIN COTTER
In the event you should lose hydraulic power while
snowplowing, raise the snowplow into a pile of
snow and insert the emergency hitch pin. The pin
will lock the plow in a temporary raised position
until proper service can be performed to restore
hydraulic power.
