Select a mounting location which seems most workable, and
that best fits your needs. It should be con ve nient to reach
and high ly vis i ble to the op er a tor. DO NOT IN STALL IN A
PO SI TION THAT OB STRUCTS THE VIEW OF THE ROAD
OR WORK AREA. Whenever pos si ble, avoid lo ca tions that
expose the con sole to direct sun light, high tem per a ture,
strong chemicals or rain.
Place the mounting bracket in the selected lo ca tion, mark
holes, drill 1/4” (7mm) holes and mount bracket with bolts,
lock wash ers and nuts pro vid ed. (If bolts are not practical, use
self-tapping screws.) See Illustration 1.
Insert the console in the “U” bracket and install the console
knobs through the bracket, placing a rubber washer over the
threaded stud. Position console to proper viewing angle and
tighten the knobs securely.

Electrical Installation
The ProPlant must be connected to a 12-volt DC elec tri cal
system. Power is connected directly to the battery. The
ProPlant has an ON/OFF switch on the console to turn the
power off when the system is not being used.
Locate the power cable harness and connect to the mating
connector on the console. Connect the blue chassis ground
wire to a good frame ground.
See Il lus tra tion 2.
Make sure
there is good metal-to-metal contact. Route the power cable
from the console to the battery. Cut off excess length. In
routing cable to battery, avoid ar eas where the ca ble may
be subjected to abra sion or ex ces sive heat. Install the in-line
fuse provided with the kit on the white wire, as illustrated, to
protect the circuit. Connect the ORANGE wire (hot) from the
fuse holder to the positive battery terminal. At tach the BLACK
wire (ground) to a screw or bolt on the equipment frame.
See
Il lus tra tion 2.
Be sure there is good metal-to-metal con tact.
Your ProPlant is equipped with a non-volatile elec tronic
mem o ry which does not re quire a con stant supply of
pow er to re tain daily totals or calibration val ues. The
advantage with this type of memory is that it conserves
battery power and will not dis charge the vehicle’s battery
when equipment is not in use.
