JOYSTICK SWITCH BOX WIRING
Refer to the parts section for wiring diagram to hook up the switch box. Cover the four wires
(1-white / 2-green / 1-red) from the on / off terminal of the switch box with plastic wire wrap
provided. Run these wires through the drilled hole in the right side panel of the steering column
on previous page.
With the panel under the steering wheel removed to access the wires, locate the brown wire.
Using a test light or meter to verify this wire is the neutral safety wire. Cut the brown wire and
connect the green wires from the switch box as shown in the wiring diagram.
To run the white wire to the solenoid valve, you will need to drill a hole in the front edge of the
cab behind the front council. Insert a rubber grommet into the hole to protect the wire, and route
the wire out of the cab to the solenoid valve.
The red wire from the on / off terminal is to be hooked to the tractor ignition switch or an available
slot in the fuse box. NOTE: +12 VOLTS ELECTRICAL POWER MUST BE TAKEN FROM A
SOURCE LOCATION WHERE IT IS LIVE ONLY WHEN THE IGNITION SWITCH IS IN THE
“ON” POSITION. THIS WIRE MUST BE FUSED AT THE SOURCE LOCATION
The travel lock red wire from the switch box should also be covered with wire wrap and
should run with the white wire through the grommet. This wire will be connected to the electronic
travel lock located on the main boom cylinder. The wires from the switch box are longer than
needed and should be carefully cut and spliced as required. Zip ties should be used to secure
the wires to the tractor framework and boom hoses to eliminate vibation and rubbing.
The black ground wire from the switch box can be attached to the switch box mounting
bracket.
A 2-1/8” hole must be drilled in the floor of the cab on the right side of the steering wheel. The
center of the hole is located 12” from the front window and 4-1/2” from the right cab door. Shown
on the next page.
Wrap the valve cables in hose wrap and route the cables through the hole in the floor of the
cab. The hose wrap will stick out above and below the hole in the cab floor. Use zip ties to
secure the hose wrap to the cables. Seal the edge of the hole with silicon sealant or strip caulk.
