WARNING
WARNING! Do not drill holes into fuel tanks, fuel lines,
through electrical wiring, etc that may be damaged by
drilling. To insure good performance of your spreader,
check the condition of truck’s electrical system. Using
digital voltmeter, check alternator and battery voltage.
With engine running and head lights and heater fan ON
good voltage reading should fall between 13.0 and 15.3
volts. If voltage reading falls out of this range, check and
adjust your electric system.

NOTE: Always disconnect battery before
attempting to install electrical components
on your vehicle.
1. Mount the controller in a convenient location in
the truck cab. It is recommended not to mount the
controller directly in front of heat vents.
2. Route both wire harnesses into truck cab
through firewall (it maybe necessary to drill holes).
Insulate hole to avoid water leaks.
3. Insure no wires are nicked or damaged during
installation.
4. Connect the 4-pin connector on the wire harness
to the control box.
5. Connect the 2-pin connector on the power cable
to the control box.
6. Connect fuse connector to the fuse terminal or
ignition switch (5 AMP max).
7. Lay out a path for the power cable to the battery,
use quick ties to secure power cable.
DO NOT CONNECT TO BATTERY AT THIS TIME!
8. Lay out path for wire harness to the rear of the
vehicle. It is recommended to stay clear of the
exhaust system. Excess heat can damage the wire
harnesses. Use quick ties to secure harness to
