Tongue:
Fasten the tongue in the rear at the front cross member location with a 1/2”
X 4-1/2” stainless steel hex bolt and 1/2” stainless steel flat washers under
the bolt head and the 1/2” stainless steel lock nut with nylon insert. Move
the tongue up to the lower frame plate of the frame. Line up the holes,
fasten the tongue in the frame with two (2) 1/2” X 3-9/16” X 5” stainless
steel square u-bolts, 1/2” beveled aluminum washers, 1/2” stainless steel
washers and 1/2” stainless steel hex lock nut with nylon inserts at the front
of the tongue plates; . Refer to Detail E and F. Connect the tongue brake-
line to the sideframe with a brakeline coupling (Ref.#30 on page 4).
Safety Chain:
Mount the safety chains to the front on the tongue using a 1/2” X 5-1/2” stain-
less steel hex bolt (Ref#4) with a 1/2” stainless steel flat washer at the head
of the bolt, followed by a safety chain through the drop tongue tube. Place the
other safety chain on the bolt on the opposite side of tongue and secure with a
1/2” stainless steel flat washer and 1/2” stainless steel hex lock nut with nylon
insert. Refer to Diagram E.
Wiring:
Plug in the tongue wire harness to the side frame wire harnesses located on
the first crossmember. Pull the wire out the hole in the tongue with either the
brown and yellow or brown and green plug.
White Ground Wire Installation:
The white ground wire must be grounded
to the trailer frame with a 1/4” X 3/4” stain-
less steel self grounding tap screw. At-
tach the ground wire to the main frame by
driving the screw into the bottom flange of
the side frame. This will assure a positive
ground for the lighting.
Brake line:
Place one end of the tongue brake line into
the hole in the top of the tongue located just
behind the front joint of the two side frames.
Insert until the end of the line comes out
the front of the tongue. Place the actuator
into it’s approximate location on the tongue.
Remove the plastic plug in the rear of
the actuator and thread the brake line
into the port. Tighten. Place the ac-
tuator in it’s proper location by align-
ing the holes in the mounting channel
with the holes in the tongue.
Actuator:
M o u n t t h e a c t u a t o r ( I t e m # 1 0 )
t o t h e d r o p t o n g u e s e c t i o n
using three (3) 1/2” X 4-1/2” stainless steel
hex bolts (Item #3) and 1/2” stainless steel
hex lock nuts with nylon inserts.
Place a grommet around the brakeline
where it comes out of the top of the tongue
to keep it from vibrating and chaffing as it
is being towed. Form the remaining end
of the brake line so it will mate up with the
brake line running down the side frame.
Secure the two lines together with the brass
coupling provided in Hardware box
66801. Tighten securely to prevent
leaks but do not over tighten causing the
threads in the fitting to strip.
