Electric Over Hydraulic Brake System
• Break open the box containing the Titan II Actuator and its com-
ponents. Sort all items and hardware by size.
Battery Boxes
• Locate the two battery boxes. Note that a battery box will be
mounted on each side frame as far forward as possible.
• Place one of the battery boxes on the inside of the side frame.
Align the holes with those pre-drilled in the side frame. Insert
four- ¼” x 1” hex bolts through the frame and then through the
battery box. Secure with a ¼” nylon lock nut. Tighten.
• Repeat the above processes on the second battery box.
SD Control Module
• Locate the SD Control Module. Place it on the inside of the
frame as shown in Diagram B. Secure to the side frame using
¼” x 1” hex bolts and ¼” nylon lock nuts.
Actuator
• Locate the actuator mounting plate and the actuator.
• Place 5/16” lock washers on the three 5/16” x 1” hex bots. At-
tach the actuator to the mounting plate using the three- 5/16” x
1” bolts positioned as shown in Diagram B. Tighten.
• Place the actuator and mounting plate assembly inside the I-
beam side frame. Align the holes with the pre-drilled holes in the
frame. Insert four- ¼” x 1” hex bolts. Secure with ¼” nylon lock
nuts. Tighten.
Batteries
1. Place the batteries in the battery boxes. Remove the protective
covers from the battery terminals. Locate the battery wire har-
ness supplied in the kit. Connect to the batteries by connecting
the wire harness spades with the red coating to the positive post
and the white wire to the negative post of the battery.
2. Route the wire harness from one battery to the other and then
over to the SD control module. Connect the battery wire har-
ness to the mating molded plug on the SD control module.
3. Replace the battery box covers.
Brake Line Tubing Connection
1. Starting at the front of the trailer, carefully remove the frame
brake line tubing from the black plastic tubing that is mounted
in the side frame used for routing the wiring and the brake line
tubing. Re¬move the tubing so there is sufficient tubing to be
routed from the black plastic tubing to the brake line port as
shown on Diagram B.
2. Carefully bend the tubing with smooth round curves making sure
that the line is not kinked as it is formed to its new location.
3. Thread the brass brake line elbow into the port of the actuator.
Tighten.
4. Remove the coupling from the end of the frame brake line used
to connect it to the tongue brake line tubing. Thread the frame
brake line fitting into the elbow just installed in the actuator port
shown. Tighten.
Tongue:
Slide the tongue into the tongue channel weldment on front cross-
member. Secure the tongue with a 5/8” X 7” stainless steel hex bolt,
5/8” stainless steel flat washer and 5/8” stainless steel hex lock nut
with nylon insert.
Secure the tongue to the tongue plate on the frame using two (2)
5/8” X 5-3/4” X 6-1/2” square u-bolts and four (4) 5/8” stainless
steel hex lock nut with nylon inserts.
Wiring
The tongue comes from the factory already pre-assembled. The
wire harness is installed and threaded into the locations required
for it to be connected to the frame once the tongue is installed. Do
not connect any of the wiring from the tongue to the wiring in the
frame until the tongue is fully installed.
Top Tongue Wires:
• Place white wire with grounding ring on the top side of the flat
aluminum plate connecting the bottom flanges of the two side
frame together. Place the self-tapping screw into the ring of the
white wire and drill into the flat plate creating a positive
ground.
• All other wires exiting the hole in the top of the tongue will be
connected to the brake actuator system using the instructions
supplied with the electric over hydraulic brake system.
• Plug the brown/yellow with 2-pin connector into the frame wire
harness for lights on the left side of the trailer.
• Plug the brown/green with 2-pin connector into the frame wire
harness for lights on the right side of the trailer.
Coupler / Safety Chain:
Mount the coupler onto the tongue (matching the hole pattern) us-
ing four (4) 5/8” X 1-3/4” stainless steel hex bolts and four (4) 5/8”
stainless steel hex lock nuts with nylon inserts.
Mount the safety chains to the front of the tongue using /2” X 1-1/2”
stainless steel hex bolts, followed by a 1/2” stainless steel flat
washer and safety chain. Secure this assembly on the inside of the
tongue using a 1/2” stainless steel hex lock nut with nylon insert.
Repeat the above instructions on the other side of the tongue.
