SET-UP
GROOM-IT Brush System
ASSEMBLY
If your Groom-It came delivered on a pallet, first remove machine and all parts from the
pallet. Connect the wishbone draw bar hitch assembly to the top frame of the machine
using the two 3/4 x 3 inch bolts, washers and lock nuts provided. Place bolt through the
frame upright, the washer, and finally the hitch assembly. MAKE SURE the washer is in
between the frame upright and the hitch assembly. Place locknut on the bolt and tighten
until snug to allow for easy movement of the hitch assembly. Pin turnbuckle assembly in
place between the wishbone hitch assembly and the Groom-It frame. Slide outer hitch
assembly over wishbone assembly and pin together at desired length with the spring pin
included. Unroll wire on hand held remote and plug into the extension wire. Plug
extension wire into actuator socket.
CONNECTION TO TOW VEHICLE
Connect the pin-type hitch to your tow vehicle using a pin that is the appropriate
diameter, and secure to ensure pin does not come out during operation.
The Groom-It utilizes the 12volt DC electrical supply from the tow vehicle to operate the
electric wheel lift actuator. Connect the alligator clips from the machine to the battery of
the tow vehicle, being sure to connect the red clip to the positive side of the battery, and
the black to the negative. Be sure that clips and wires are properly secured so they will
not vibrate loose or lose contact during operation.
CAUTION!
Avoid direct contact with the battery terminals and the un-insulated portion of the
alligator clips. Electrical shock could result.
LEVELING MACHINE
With Groom-It attached to tow vehicle, park in a flat, level area. Lower brushes until the
wheels are clear of the ground. Loosen the jam nut on the Turnbuckle assembly, and
adjust the turnbuckle until all the brushes have equal pressure on the ground. Retighten
the jam nut.
