JOYSTICK CONTROL MOUNTING
Mounting the adjustable joystick control requires that the right armrest be modified and
an additional bracket attached. The armrest must be removed by sliding off the plastic
cover and removing the capscrew from the lower right side of the seat. This will leave the
armrest loose so it can be removed. Once the armrest is removed, place the base mount
under the armrest, so the indentation on the outside of the armrest is lined up with the hole
in the armrest bracket which the capscrew will need to pass through. Mark the armrest
where the hole passes through the armrest bracket. A 1/2” hole must be drilled through the
armrest so that the bracket can be secured. After the initial 1/2” hole is drilled, on the inside
of the armrest the hole must be cut to a larger diameter up to the metal plate in the armrest,
so that a spacer and hex nut can be fastened to the capscrew which will secure the
bracket. Install the armrest bracket on the armrest with the hardware shown in the Parts
Section. Once the bracket is installed, re-attach the armrest to the seat using the existing
hardware previously removed. Then install the joystick in the bracket with the machine
screws shown in the Parts Section. Route the lift valve wires from the switchbox through
the cab and out the back window. Cover with conduit and secure with ties or clamps as
necessary.
