IMPORTANT!
This unit is a safety device, and must be connected to it's own seperate, fused power
point to assure it's continued operation should any other electrical accessory fail.

Installation:

Install the switch adjacent to the gear shift lever so that shifting into
reverse will move the switch actuator arm sufficiently to make
electrical contact.

A. Select a convenient location for mounting the switch, either at
the reverse gear linkage or shift lever, so the outer end of the
switch actuating arm (1) will be moved a minimum of one inch
when vehicle is put into reverse gear. Contact with the actuat
ing arm should be made approximately 1 1/2" from the end.
B. Thread two 14 or 16 gage wires to this switch location. One
from the positive terminal of the back-up alarm (red wire or
front terminal) and the other from a good source of electricity.
C. Remove lower switch housing (2). Install wire clamp (3) and
insert wires through clamp. Connect one of the wires to the
terminal marked "COMMON". NOTE: To improve moisture
resistance apply a sealing compound around wires at clamp
(3) after reassembly.
D. Unscrew hex nuts from switch mounting bolts (4) and attach
mouting bracket (5). Be sure that sealing washers (6) are in
place between bracket and switch. Bolt bracket in position on
vehicle.
E. Check back-up alarm system for proper operation before using
vehicle. If alarm does not function, reverse power leads to
alarm. If alarm still does not function, check to make sure actu
ating arm is moving one inch. CAUTION: This switch is de
signed to handle the current draw of back-up alarms. No other
circuit can be added to system without endangering life of the
switch.
