TONGUE
The tongue is shipped separate of the frame. Locate the
appropriate tongue and install by sliding it in the front of the

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.
