Trailer Pro, Installation/Operating Instructions
Installing the Control Box in the Tractor
• Find a suitable location in the cab of the tractor and mount the control box. The
red and black two wire cable attached to the back of the box is the power cable.
Plug the cigarette lighter end into a power outlet in the cab.
• If you do not have an available outlet for the cigarette lighter end, use the
following instructions: Cut the cigarette lighter plug off. Split apart the wires
and connect the red wire to a 12 volt dc power source and the black wire to
ground. (Terminals are included to allow you to tap into most fuse panels.)
WARNING
:
Red wire must be positive and black wire negative. Reversing these
wires can damage the control system.
• Route the gray cord and male 9 pole plug out of the cab and to the front
bulkhead of the side dump. Plug the cord into the female 9 pole socket on the
side dump bulkhead.
• To operate your Demco side dump, your tractor will need a hydraulic pump
that can supply a minimum of 25gpm to the trailer at 2,500 psi. See page
20
for
more information on the tractor’s hydraulic requirements.
• If your side dump is equipped with a tarp, you will also need to wire a power
cord from the tractor’s battery to the side dump to supply power to the tarp’s
motor. For detailed wiring instructions, see page
43
.
Operating the TrailerPro Control Box
Press the “Power” button to turn the system on. The button will light up to
indicate the power is on. Press the button again to turn the system off.
Dumping the Tub
The red switch in the lower left corner operates the tub. To dump the tub, turn on
the tractor’s hydraulic pump and then lift and hold the red toggle in the “dump”
position to raise the tub and empty its contents. Release the switch when the
cylinders reach the fully extended position.
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
The “Tarp Uncovered When Lit” green light will always be illuminated
with a truck box, regardless of the tarp’s position. Always check tarp’s position
before dumping.
WARNING
:
Do not stop dumping the load in mid dump and then try to return the
tub to the transport position. You may tip over the side dump instead of returning
the tub.
Push and hold the red switch in the “Return” position to bring the tub back to its
transport position. Release the switch when the cylinders are fully retracted.
Operating the Tarp (If Equipped)
The white switch in the lower middle operates the tarp. Lift and hold the white
switch to unroll the tarp and cover the tub. Push down and hold the switch to roll
the tarp and uncover the tub.
WARNING:
When rolling the tarp do not continue to hold the switch after the tarp
has reached the fully rolled position. Damage to the tarp or the motor can occur
when the motor continues to try to rotate after reaching the fully rolled position.
