does not interfere with safe operation of the tractor in the field
or on public roads.
The monitor includes cables for power , speed
sensor and sensor harnesses . Installation
instructions are found in the included DICKEY-john ®
manual.
Power required is 12Vdc. Power color code is:

The included bracket requires customer-supplied
fasteners.
