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 (If
equipped with brakes) through the hole provided in
the tongue cover plate.
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 a 1/2” lock nut. Tighten both bolts just
installed.
Plug the tongue wire harness ends into the frame
harnesses by matching colors and ends. Push the
extra wire provided either into the rear of the tongue
or else remove the grommets in the side frames and
place the extra wire in the side frame. Replace
grommets just removed.
SAFETY CHAINS
Locate the 1/2” x 5” hex bolt. Slip the bolt through a
1/2” flat washer, then place through the last link of
one of the safety chains.
Place the bolt with chain attached through the hole
provided in the bottom front of the actuator mount on
the tongue. Place the second chain on the portion
of the bolt extending through the other side of the
tongue. Place on another 1/2” flat washer and hex
lock nut. Tighten.
