SYSTEM CHECK-OUT
NOTE: The power cable and wiring harnesses
must be connected between the snowplow and
truck to test the functions of the headlights and
power unit. Vehicle ignition must be switched on.
1. Move the headlight switch on the joystick con-
troller to the "TRUCK" position and turn on
the vehicle headlights. High and low beams
should operate on the truck.
2. Move the switch to the "PLOW" position.
Plow lights should operate in both high and
low beams. Vehicle headlights should be off.
3. Test the parking lights and turn signals. Lights
on the plow and truck should operate at the
same time.
4. In an area clear of bystanders, test joystick
functions by raising and lowering the plow
and angling side to side.
Raise and lower functions may be reversed,
as follows.
JOYSTICK CONFIGURATION
As supplied from the factory, the snowplow con-
troller raises the plow when the joystick is pulled
backward and lowers the plow when the joystick is
pushed forward.
These functions can be reversed by reassembling
the joystick switch and face plate.
To reverse the face plate, pry the plate away from
the controller by inserting a small screwdriver
along the side of the plate at location 1 in drawing
5723. Flip the plate over, then reinstall by gently
squeezing the long sides together and sliding the
four tabs into slots in the controller top.
To reverse the joystick switch, remove four screws
from the back of the controller and remove the main
circuit board assembly from the case halves.
Gently pull on the edges of the small circuit board at
the base of the joystick switch to remove the switch
from the five pins on the main circuit board.
Rotate the switch 90 O
back onto the five pins.
Insert the main circuit board assembly back into
the case top, making sure the joystick is properly
seated and the harness strain relief is inside the
case.
Reassemble the case with the four screws, check-
ing that wires are not pinched between bosses.
Test the controller on the snowplow or a plow tes-
ter to verify that raise and lower functions match
arrows on the face plate.
