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 through the

hole provided in the tongue cover plate. See Detail A

in Diagram A.

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 1/2” lock nut. Tighten both bolts just installed.

Plug the tongue wire harness ends into the frame har-

nesses by matching colors and ends. Push the extra

wire provided either into the rear of the tongue or else

remove the grommet in the side frame and place the

extra wire in the side frame. Replace grommet just re-

moved.

WHITE GROUND WIRE INSTALLATION

Place the self-tapping screw provided through the

round metal ring on the white ground wire of the

tongue harness located at the rear of the tongue. At-

tach the ground wire to the main frame by driving the

screw in the hole provided next to the tongue channel

of the frame. This will assure a positive ground for the

lighting.

SAFETY CHAINS

Locate the 1/2” x 1-1/4” hex bolt. Slip the bolt through

a 1/2” at washer, then place through the last link of one

of the safety chains. Place a second ﬂat washer on the

bolt and insert through the hole as shown in Diagram

B. Secure with a 1/2” .ﬂange lock nut. Tighten. Repeat

this process on the second safety chain on the oppo-

site side of the tongue.

Assembly is complete.

BRAKE LINE

Locate the brass brake line coupling. Remove the

plastic cap and thread the brake line coming out the

rear of the tongue into one end of the coupling. Bend

the line in a smooth gradual radius being careful not

to kink the line. Bend so it can be mated to the brake

line from the side frame. Once aligned, thread the side

frame brake line into the other end of the coupling.

Tighten both lines into the coupling.
