4. Route the red/white and black wires to the battery.
CAUTION: Ensure that all wires are routed
away from moving parts, hot components or
areas where they may be damaged.
5. Attach the ring terminal on the black wire to the
negative (–) post of the battery.
6. Attach the ring terminal on the red/white wire to the
positive (+) post of the battery.
7. Route the red and brown leads of the wiring
harness (item 26) to the front of the unit and
connect to the lift motor plug. Attach the wiring
harness to the front of the unit with cable tie
(item 20).
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the front tie point of the
wiring harness to the unit allows full movement of the
plow without placing any tension on the harness.
8. Insert the relay (item 13) into the relay socket on
the wiring harness (item 26).
9. Using a 12-volt test light or meter, locate an existing
wire on the unit that is only energized when the key
switch is in the ON position.
10. Attach the yellow wire from the relay socket to the
wire just located with one Scotchlok connector
(item 22).
IMPORTANT: Connecting the yellow wire to a wire that is
not controlled by the key switch will discharge the battery.
11. Secure wiring harness to unit with remaining cable
ties.
12. Ensure that fuse is inserted in fuse holder and turn
the key switch to the ON position.
13. Press the motor switch to the UP position and verify
that the spool on the lift motor rotates clockwise
when viewed from the open end (figure 5). If the
spool rotates counter-clockwise refer to the wiring
diagram in figure 6.

14. Run the spool in the direction needed to result in
one wrap of cable on the spool and the cable to the
front of the spool.
15. With the blade resting on the ground, route the end
of the cable up through the quick link (item 8) and
the lift strap (item 6) and secure it with the cable
clamp (item 7).
Operation
Press the blade switch in the UP position to raise the
blade and in the DOWN position to lower the blade.
Important operating points:
• Release the switch as soon as the blade is up. If the
blade is raised too high the push tube will contact
the unit's frame and overload the gear motor and
other parts. This may also lead to fuse failure.
• Release the switch as soon as the blade is down. If
the switch is held in the DOWN position after the
blade is on the ground, the cable will start to wind
backward on the spool.
Occasionally lubricate each end of the spool with oil.
