hose into the port on Angle Cylinder (40) and
tighten securely.
Note:
Do not apply thread compound to the ¼” end of
the hose.
Note:
Do not get thread compound on the end of the

27. Attach Light Bar (13) to the top of Coupler
Assembly (1) using two Hex Head Cap Screws
(91) and Hex Head Self Locking Nuts (109).
Note:
The light bar should be positioned as close to
the Coupler Tower as possible. Only two holes will be
aligned for normal installations. Only two bolts per side
are needed to secure the light bar.

Note:
Figure 9 illustrates that the Coupler Assembly
and Light Bar have two sets of 1 inch adjustment holes
for mounting on different vehicles. These adjustment
holes may be needed in order to move the light bar
away from the vehicle’s hood.
