INSTALLATION / 21

INSTALLING CONSOLE HARNESSES

Several harnesses are located at the bottom of the PM300, PM332, and
PM400. These include power, ground speed sensor, and sensor inputs
(rows, lift switch, two hopper levels, and one frequency function [shaft/fan/
flow]).

Console Harnesses

1. Route the power harness to a +12 V source near the battery if

possible.

2. Route the ground speed sensor harness connection to the RADAR,

Hall Effect, or GPS ground speed sensor.

3. Route the implement harness to the location of choice, typically near

the drawbar

.

The harnesses must not obstruct movement of the operator or of
the moving parts of the tractor or implement. Take care when
routing harnesses to secure them at proper locations; provide
slack as needed to allow for movement.

Poor +12 V connections may cause intermittent console operation.
Be sure to connect the power harness to a clean, well-conditioned
source (direct battery connection is preferred).
