TRANSPORT LIGHT KIT

Use FLASHING WARNING LIGHTS when traveling on public roads day or night, unless
prohibited by law.
If the rotary cutter obscures the tractor warning lights or taillights, the rotary cutter MUST be equipped with a
transport light kit.
Check local highway regulations concerning moving machinery on highways.
Ensure the safety pins are installed before working
on the cutter. Install the safety light mounting
brackets in the position shown in the figure below
using the existing bolts that fasten the rear chain
guard to the wing. The light assemblies are installed
onto the mounting brackets with the 5/16" bolts and
locknuts. Install the lights with the red and amber
lenses facing to the rear, and the amber is the outer
most light.
The seven-pin plug and wiring harness is pre-wired
with the 80" (2m) leg to attach the right hand light
assembly and the 120" (3m) leg to attach to the left
hand light assembly. The wiring harness is fed into
the right tube along side the tension rod and exits
the rear of the tube. Using the cable ties, secure the
wiring harness to the rear hydraulic hoses to
properly route the harness to the left and right light
assemblies. Ensure there is enough slack in the
harness that it does not pull when the wing goes
through it's full range of motion. There should be
approximately 4 to 5 feet (1.5m) of harness
extending past the hitch point for connection to the
tractor.When not in use, the safety light harness
should be stored using the Stor-Away plug
provided. The Stor-Away plug (1) is installed in the
position indicated in the figure below using the ¼"
bolts and lock nuts provided.
The cutter's lights should operate in unison with the
tractor lights.
