SET-UP AND OPERATION
TRAILER PACKAGE ASSEMBLY:
NOTE: REFER TO INSTALLATION DIAGRAM
1.Bolt fender braces (076) to dump gate sides by using 3/8-16 x 3/4
HHCS, 3/8 lock washers and 3/8-16 hex nuts.
2.Secure the fenders (075) to the fender braces by using 3/8-16 x 3/
4 HHCS, 3/8 lockwashers and 3/8-16 hex nuts. Align the holes in
the fender with the holes in the TLV frame (01).
3.Position the axle (078) under the frame with the torsion arms
trailing toward the dump gate. The axle is bolted to the fame
through the holes closest to the tongue side of the frame.
4.Join the fenders to the axle, through the frame, by using 1/2-13 x 4-
1/2 HHCS (6), 1/2 flat washers (3) 1/2 lock washers (4) and 1/2-
13 hex nuts (5). (Fig. 1)
12.Pull the green and brown wires up through the conduit directly
above the exit hole. The green and brown wires are for the RIGHT
tail light. (Fig. 2)
13.The yellow and brown wires are strung along the TLV frame
below the dump gate. The yellow and brown wires are for the
LEFT tail light. (Fig. 2)
14.Holes are predrilled in the frame to secure the wires using wire
clamps and #10 self drilling hex head screws.
15.Pull the yellow and brown wires up through the conduit and out
through the hole near the fender brace.
16.Remove the slack from the trailer wires and secure them to the
fender braces with the supplied adhesive wire clips.
17.Cut the trailer wires allowing for sufficient length to connect the
tail lights (082 & 083)
18.Strip the ends of the trailer wires 1/2" for proper connection.
19.Feed the trailer wires through the upper slots on the fender braces.
20.Push the stripped brown ends into the hole on the trailer lights
marked tail.
21.Push the stripped green and yellow ends into the hole on the

24.Attach your license plate through the holes on the LEFT fender
brace. Apply the amber side markers on each side of the TLV 300

NOTE: Ensure that the axle is mounted perpendicular to
the direction of travel. A misaligned axle will decrease
tire life and will not tow satisfactorily.

(079) on the axle using the lug nuts (080).
6.Pull the wire harness (084) wires through the hole at the back of

and keeper pins.
9.Attach the jack (103) to the tongue using the supplied snap ring
(104).
10.Pull the trailer wires through the holes under the TLV frame
