 Installing Controller and Wiring Diagram

Refer to Fig 7.

• 

NOTE: Always disconnect battery before attempting to 

install electrical components on your vehicle.

• Mount the controller in a convenient location in the truck cab. 
It is recommended not to mount the controller directly in front of 
heat vents.
• Route both wire harnesses into truck cab through firewall (it 
maybe necessary to drill holes). Insulate hole to avoid water 
leaks.
• Insure no wires are nicked or damaged during installation.
• Connect the 4-pin connecter on the wire harness to the con-
trol box.
• Connect the 2-pin connector on the power cable to the control 
box.
• Lay out a path for the power cable to the battery, use quick 
ties to secure power cable. 

DO NOT CONNECT TO BATTERY 

AT THIS TIME!

• Lay out path for wire harness to the rear of the vehicle. It is 
recommended to stay clear of the exhaust system. Excess heat 
can damage the wire harnesses. Use quick ties to secure har-
ness to underbody.
• Connect the wire harness to the motor and vibrator located 
inside the TGS06 spreader.

• Connect the power and ground cables directly to the battery 
(Fig 7).
• Insure all functions of the controller are working properly.

 Note: direction of spinner may be changed by interchanging 

the motor leads.

 Operating Instructions

• Ensure flow gate is in closed position.
• Caution: when filling hopper, make certain there are no large 
objects contained in the material which could cause the spinner 
to bind and stop operation of the spreader motor.
• Fill hopper with #1 rock salt or calcium chloride from bags. 

DO 

NOT USE BULK MATERIAL

. All material must have the same 

crystal size as #1 rock salt.
• Slide flow gate to desired opening for material flow.
• NOTE: Different materials will have different flow rates.

9. 

 Maintenance Instructions

• Occasionally inspect spreader for loose bolts and nuts.
• Inspect for broken wires, frayed or cracked insulation.
• 

Always remove salt from spreader after each use

, if salt is 

not removed, it will harden and no longer flow and stop normal 
operation.
• Inspect and clean flow gate and matting surfaces to remove 
any unwanted rock salt.
