TONGUE
The tongue is shipped separate of the frame. Locate
the appropriate tongue and install by sliding it in the
front of the tongue channel.
Line the holes in the tongue with the holes in the
tongue channel. Install the 1/2” x 4” hex bolt in the
front cross hole and secure with a 1/2” lock nut.
Remove the wire harness from the rear of the tongue.
Place the wire harness and the brake line through the
hole provided in the tongue cover plate. See Detail A
in Diagram A.
Secure the tongue cover plate in position with the
same 1/2” x 1-1/2” hex bolt that secures the back on
the tongue to the tongue channel of the frame. Secure
with 1/2” lock nut. Tighten both bolts just installed.
Plug the tongue wire harness ends into the frame har-
nesses by matching colors and ends. Push the extra
wire provided either into the rear of the tongue or else
remove the grommet in the side frame and place the
extra wire in the side frame. Replace grommet just re-
moved.
WHITE GROUND WIRE INSTALLATION
Place the self-tapping screw provided through the
round metal ring on the white ground wire of the
tongue harness located at the rear of the tongue. At-
tach the ground wire to the main frame by driving the
screw in the hole provided next to the tongue channel
of the frame. This will assure a positive ground for the
lighting.
SAFETY CHAINS
Locate the 1/2” x 1-1/4” hex bolt. Slip the bolt through
a 1/2” at washer, then place through the last link of one
of the safety chains. Place a second flat washer on the
bolt and insert through the hole as shown in Diagram
B. Secure with a 1/2” .flange lock nut. Tighten. Repeat
this process on the second safety chain on the oppo-
site side of the tongue.
Assembly is complete.
BRAKE LINE
Locate the brass brake line coupling. Remove the
plastic cap and thread the brake line coming out the
rear of the tongue into one end of the coupling. Bend
the line in a smooth gradual radius being careful not
to kink the line. Bend so it can be mated to the brake
line from the side frame. Once aligned, thread the side
frame brake line into the other end of the coupling.
Tighten both lines into the coupling.
