Installation Checklist
The following list of steps is an overview of the installation process. A complete and more
detailed list of each step including optional peripherals is defined later in this document.
□ Install Tank
o Fasten with 4 of the 8 supplied #8 sheet metal screws along with the 4 large washers
or the 5/16-18 bolts and Nylock nuts.
□ Install Pump
o Select suitable location for pump near and below the lowest fluid level of tank.
o Fasten with 4 of the #8 sheet metal screws along with the 4 small washers or the
#8-32 bolts and Nylock nuts.
o Cut supplied nylon hose with a sharp razor blade and install from tank to pump.
□ Install Controller
o Disconnect ground side of battery during electronic installation.
o
Find suitable location for controller inside driver’s compartment.
o Find l ocation in driver’s field of view and install external LED.
o Follow the wire diagram and connect wires from supplied wire harness.
