WIRELESS CONTROL PROGRAMMING
AND PAIRING
When to program and pair the wireless
key fob control:
The wireless key fob control included with the
spreader should come paired and ready for use.
If the spreader does not respond to the wireless
key fob control, or after replacing the battery
(CR2032 battery or equivalent), you will need to
program the wireless key fob control and pair it to
the spreader's wireless control module.
Ensuring the spreader has power
The spreader is only compatible with 7-way
RV-style trailer plugs. If your vehicle is not
equipped with a 7-way trailer plug, contact
Customer Support to purchase the necessary
electrical harness.
3. Plug the spreader into the 7-way plug. Be sure to
check that the plug polarity is correct, as shown
below. The spreader will start at 100% speed.
4. Unplug the spreader, push the toggle switch
into the center position, and then reconnect
power to the spreader.
The spreader must be unplugged after running
an override. The wireless key fob control will
remain locked out until power is removed from
the spreader unit.
5. If power is not present, consult the trailering
section in the vehicle owner's manual for more
information.
