Mechanical Installation
Note:
It is needed to open and close the
step during the installation, therefore you
should either first install the electrical system
as described under 7.2 or you can open and
close the step by putting direct 12V power
on the 2 pin AMP super seal connector
coming from the motor orange and yellow
cables as shown below. Reverse polarity for
reversing the direction of rotation. See also:
schedule at section 10.
If you decide to hotwire the
electric motor to open or
close the step: make sure
you disconnect it
immediately after the step
reaches the most inward or
outward position.
The burning of the electric
motor due to hotwiring
doesn’t fall under
warranty!
Step 1:
Create a safe working
environment. Raise the vehicle to an
convenient working height.
Fig 1 shows the basic principles for
affixing the step. Note that the motor
swing assembly can be placed in the
front or in the rear (Fig 2). This has no
influence at the function of the step.

Make sure that the step is not too
close to hot parts such as the
exhaust system. This can
damage the step. Recommended
