Control Harness Installation On Salt
Spreader
Power Harness
1. Remove the power harness (two wire) and power
harness parts bag from the control package.
2. Disconnect the NEG. (-) battery cable from the
battery.
NOTE: Take extra time needed to plan the routing of wir-
ing harnesses. Make sure harnesses do not interfere
with, or contact, any moving parts and route wires away
from excessive heat areas. Read all the instructions care-
fully to ensure a safe and professional installation.
3. Determine a route from the rear bumper of the
vehicle, along the frame rails, and through the vehicle
engine compartment to the battery. Make sure to leave
enough harness length at the back bumper to reach the
power connector on the spreader receiver.
4. Mount the fuse holder near the battery using (2) #10
x 1" self-tapping screws.
5. Take the cover off of the fuse holder. Place the end of
the 6 in. long power wire with the small ring terminal on
one stud. (See Figure 1-8).
Figure 1-8
6. Attach the other end of one 6 in. long power wire to
the POS. (+) terminal on the battery.
NOTE: In the next step, if the Power Harness does not
have the ring terminals crimped on, any excess harness
length that isn't needed to reach the battery, can be cut
off. Then, the ring terminals that are bagged separately
onto the harness can be crimped onto the red and black
wires of the harness.Crimp the smaller ring terminal on
the red wire and the larger ring terminal on the black wire.
7. Attach the power harness red wire to the other
terminal of the fuse holder.
8. Place the fuse between the two studs and secure
with the supplied nuts. Replace the cover.
9. Attach the power harness black wire to the NEG. (-)
terminal on the battery and re-connect the negative
battery terminal.
10. Spray all terminal connections with a battery terminal
protective coating.
11. Secure harness with plastic tie straps.
12. Place di-electric grease in the contacts of the plug at
the rear of the truck and install protective cap.
WARNING
Disconnect the vehicle NEG. (-) battery cable
while performing steps 2 - 8 to avoid serious
bodily injury from electrical shock, fire, or
explosion. Do not re-connect battery cable until
indicated in step 9.
