WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
When properly connected, the spreader motor and impeller 
will run 

clockwise viewed from above.

18.  Move the spreader's flow control lever to the off position 

so that the "ON-Off" switch is turned off.

19.  Connect the short (fused) wire harness to the vehicle 

battery by connecting the red wire to the positive post 
and the brown wire to the negative post on the battery. 
The wire harness may be left permanently attached to 
the battery.  See figure 12.

20. Connect the long wire harness to the spreader by 

connecting the red and white wires to the switch and 
the brown and white wires to the spreader motor. Refer 
to figure 12. 

21.  Connect the long wire harness to the short (fused) wire 

harness. Be sure the wires are clear of any moving parts, 
hot engine parts, or pinch points.

22.  Use the nylon ties provided to safely secure the wiring 

away from hot engine parts, rotating parts and pinch 
points.

17.  Attach the flow control to the motor mount bracket on the 

spreader using the 5/16" x 1" carriage bolt, a mounting 
clamp and a plastic knob. See figure 11.

NOTE: You can also attach to the rear rack if you use a 5/16" 
x 1-3/4" carriage bolt. If you attach to the rear rack, you can 
loosely pre-assemble the clamp, bolt and knob to the flow 
control. The clamp can then be angled down through the 
slot in the rack.

 

NEVER allow negative pin on plug to come 
in contact with positive "hot" post on battery. 
Fire or explosion can result!

23.  Move the flow control lever to the "ON" position. Flip 

the  "ON-OFF"  switch  on  and  check  that  the  motor  
runs counterclockwise. If it does not, refer to the wiring 
diagram on page 6 and recheck the hookup.

24.  Move the flow control lever to "OFF". This should turn 

the "ON-OFF" switch off. If it does not, you can loosen 
the control and rotate it enough that the flow control 
lever, when moved to the "OFF" position will turn the 
switch off. See figure 13.
