EAR LOCATION
The pump is shipped with a hand pump handle, a solenoid, and a rubber terminal boot.
1.
Locate and install the solenoid in a convenient location under the hood near the
vehicle’s battery. Ensure that the solenoid’s body is electrically grounded.
2.
Install all hydraulic fittings and adapters as shown on hydraulic schematic.
3.
Route all required hose as shown on the hydraulic schematic.
4.
Ensure that none of the hoses contact any sharp edges or hot surfaces. Tie-wrap all
hoses securely leaving enough slack for the railgear to function.
5.
Install the dash switch and “Railgear Pump” decal in a convenient location on the dash.
6.
Using suitable 14 gauge wire, cable loom, connectors, solder and heat shrink tubing:
a.
Route and install all electrical components as shown on the electrical schematic.
7.
Using suitable 2 gauge wire, cable loom, connectors, solder and heat shrink tubing:
a.
Connect one wire from the vehicle’s battery to the power terminal on the circuit
breaker or fuse.
b.
Connect another wire from the load terminal on the circuit breaker to the power
terminal on the solenoid.
c.
Connect another wire from the load terminal on the solenoid to the power
terminal on the pump motor. Use the supplied rubber boot to protect the pump
power terminal from shorting out.
d.
Ensure the pump motor base is properly grounded to the vehicle chassis by
connecting a wire from the pump motor base to a suitable ground location on the
vehicle. The railgear may not be properly grounded due to paint on the mounting
plates or tar on the frame.
8.
Mount the front and rear control valves as required. It may be necessary to fabricate a
bracket to mount the valve in a suitable location. Ensure the control valve is within
reach of the railgear locking cable handle for activating the railgear pump.
9.
Ensure that the control valves are mounted so that the controls do not fill with water
and freeze. They should also be mounted in a location protected from road spray etc.
10.
Affix the supplied railgear operation decals in a suitable location adjacent to the front
and rear control valves.
11.
Ensure all wires and terminals are soldered, heat shrink sealed, enclosed in protective
cable loom and secured with tie-wraps.
12.
Ensure all holes in the firewall are sealed and protected with a grommet.
