QUICK SET-UP GUIDE
NOTE: The Super MUTT ® Deluxe is an advanced diagnostic tool designed
to eliminate guesswork and make your job easier. As a general rule, if
something is wrong with your trailer’s electrical system, the MUTT ® will
beep and blink LEDs to indicate the problem. Air brake testing is straight-
forward, but should be operated only AFTER reading the instruction
manual. Both Lights and Air Brakes can be operated by remote control.
1. CHOCK ALL WHEELS BEFORE TESTING BRAKES.
2. INSTALL A FULLY CHARGED GROUP 31, 12 VOLT DC BATTERY in the
battery compartment of your Super MUTT ® Deluxe.
3. INSTALL THE ANTENNA (in the included accessories bag) into the MUTT ®
antenna jack (see fig. 5, page 17).
4. PROGRAM THE REMOTE by holding down the large button of remote while
simultaneously turning the MUTT ® power On. Release the large button after
2 seconds. The remote control is programmed once the start-up sequence
has finished and the Ground Integrity light on the MUTT ® remains solid green.
The small button on the remote for Air Brake operation will also be pro-
grammed at this time.
5. CHECK 7 PIN CONNECTORS on both sides of the MUTT ® before operat-
ing to make sure the pins are spread to the proper width and greased. This
ensures a solid connection.
6. CONDITION 7 PIN CONNECTORS: Use dielectric grease on all connections
to avoid corrosion. If a bad connection exists at the terminal junction, you may
get an erroneous reading or the MUTT ® will not work properly. Make sure that
you have a solid connection in the 7 way socket (perform cable test).
7. CONNECT THE OUTPUT side of the 7 pin cable to the trailer being tested.
Connect shop air into the clean air source. Optimum test pressure is 100psi
(do not exceed 120 psi). Connect the red air hose to the Emergency Side (left)
Air Out connection on the front of the MUTT ® . Then connect the blue air hose
to the Service Side Air Out connection. Finally connect each of the appropriate
glad hand connectors to the corresponding trailer connection.
8. Optimum testing pressure is 100 PSI.
