12 VDC Remote Apron Control
The 12 VDC Remote Apron Control provides precise spot application control for multiple "stop and go" drops
with a single load. A real time saver, the remote apron control is easy to operate and prevents unwanted
dumping or spillage, which often occur at spreader startup.
Field Service Procedure: Installing the Remote Apron Control
CAUTION: Before installing the 12 VDC Remote Apron Control, move the spreader to a level
surface and block the wheels to prevent movement; failure to do so may result in serious personal injury.
1. If applicable, ensure that the tractor is turned OFF and all moving parts have stopped. Detach the
spreader from the tractor.
2. Lower the spreader jack as far as possible. This will raise the rear of the machine and provide more
work space.
3. Refer to Figure B7, which shows the component parts detail of the Remote Apron Control.
4. Locate the apron motor under the rear of the spreader, and note the location of the Pressure Port
and Return Port as shown in the drawing. (Parts #8 and #10 represent the hydraulic hoses connected
to the Pressure Port and Return Port, respectively.)
5. Position a bucket underneath the hoses (to catch any oil collected in the lines), and disconnect the
fittings/hoses from the apron motor.
NOTE: As shown in Figure B7, these hoses will eventually be re-connected to the Remote Apron
Control Fittings; for proper functioning of the new control, it is extremely important that the proper
hoses be connected to the corresponding new fittings as shown.
6. Clearances for the installation of the new fittings will be tight, therefore the ORDER of installation is
extremely important. Please follow these instructions specifically:
• The Remote Apron Control fittings are pre-assembled. For proper installation, you
will need to disassemble fittings (#7) and (#2) from the other components, so they can
be installed individually.
• Install the tee fitting (#7) by itself into the Return Port. Tighten and ensure that the
branch of the tee is facing the left of the machine.
• Install the swivel adapter (#2) by itself into the Pressure Port.
• Assemble the remaining fittings as shown in Figure B7.
7. Connect the Pressure hose (#8) to the branch of tee fitting (#3).
8. Connect the Return hose (#10) to the straight of the tee fitting (#7).
9. Check all fittings/connections to ensure all are tightened.
10. Connect the wires coming from the coil (#11) to the wire leading to the switch box (#14).
11. Run the wire (going to the switch box) along the hydraulic hoses all the way up to the tractor. Secure the
wire with wire ties wherever needed.
12. Mount the switch box on the tractor wherever desired (i.e. within easy reach of the tractor operator).
13. Connect the battery wires from the switch box to the battery on the tractor. Make sure that the wire
with the fuse is attached to the positive terminal on the battery.
14. Start the tractor; the Remote Apron Control switch should be in the OFF position.
NOTE: With the switch in the OFF position the spreader apron should operate normally.
15. With the spreader running, check all hydraulic fittings/hoses for leaks.
16. Switch the Remote Apron Control to the ON position. The apron should stop.
