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
harnesses by matching colors and ends. Push the
extra wire provided into the rear of the tongue, or re-
move the grommet in the side frame and place the
extra wire in the side frame. Replace grommet just
removed.
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.
Attach 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 opposite 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.
