INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL LIFT OPTION
1. Attach electric actuators.
2. If the spray vehicle has the appropriate electric controls you may use these otherwise continue from step
number 4. Hook these control up so that each switch moves the appropriate section and up and down in
the direction indicated by the switch.
3. If a boom section moves in the wrong direction, the electrical connector for that section will require
swapping the incoming wires.
4. Mount the control box in an accessible spot near the operators seat.
5. Route the wires with the fuse link to the battery of the vehicle. Place the red wire on the positive terminal
and the blue wire on the negative battery terminal. Tie wires securely in place away from excessive
sources of heat or pinch points.
6. Route the three sets of wire from the control box to the electric actuators.
7. The red and black pair of wires go to the right wing. The green and black wires go to the center actuator.
The Yellow and black wires go to the left wing.
CURTAIN INSTALLATION
1. Attach curtains to booms while in the transport position. Use generous amounts of lubricant on the rope
end, or top of the curtain. (Spray silicone recommended.)
2. Start by placing one end of the curtain into the slot at the middle rear of the shield. Slide the curtain
through the slot. Take care to keep feeding curtain into the slot from the start point otherwise the curtain
will come out at the start point.
3. Pull curtain until the start of the curtain meets and overlaps with the end of the curtain by 1-2”.
4. If the curtain has excess length double check that the curtain has not been pulled too tight and is putting
extreme stress on the curtain and shield. If the curtain is to tight keep feeding curtain either forwards or
backwards to release tension so the curtain hangs straight.
5. Turn curtain support straps on underside of boom down so they are pointing at the ground. These give
the curtain extra support in the event of severe wind conditions.
6. Repeat for the remaining boom sections.
