IMPORTANT:  Damage  to  the  wiring 
harness  will  occur  if  adequate  cable 
length  is  not  provided  to  allow  for 

full  motion  of  the  loader  arms.  Use  plastic 
tie  straps  to  secure  the  wiring  harness  to 
the  loader  arm  immediately  adjacent  to  the 
loader arm pivot point.

Refer  to  drawing  number  7627.  Fasten  the 
square  connector  next  to  the  hydraulic  quick 
couplers.  Route  the  cable  along  the  skid-steer 
arm to the pivot point of the arm and secure with 
the  supplied  plastic  tie  straps.  It  is  especially 
important  to  leave  adequate  cable  at  the  pivot 
point to allow for arm movement.

Next,  the  switch  cable  needs  to  be  routed  into 
the  cab.  Attach  the  switch  to  the  control  arm 
using  a  plastic  tie  strap  as  shown  in  drawing 
number 4284.

DWG NO. 4284

Route the third length of the cable to the battery. 
Connect  the  red  fused  wire  ring  terminal  to  the 
positive  post  of  the  battery  and  the  black  wire 
ring terminal to the negative post of the battery.

Ensure  all  wires  are  away  from  hot  or  moving 
parts,  and  secured  with  plastic  ties  to  prevent 
damage.

The wiring on the plow comes preinstalled. The 
connectors  to  the  solenoids  should  be  fi rmly 
seated. The connectors are interchangeable, as 
both  solenoids  are  activated  at  the  same  time 
when the push button switch is pressed.

8. 

Attach two leveling bars onto the ribs using 
provided 5/16 hardware.

DWG NO. 7759

Verify top bar rotates freely on bushing after as-
sembly.

QUICK COUPLERS

Select  and  install  hydraulic  quick  couplers 
and  adapter  fi ttings  on  VersaPlow  feed  lines 
according  to  the  size  and  type  (i.e.  fl at  face  or 
poppet style) of couplers on customers machine.
Hoses  supplied  on  VersaPlow  have  9/16-18 
JIC  female  swivel  ends  for  9/16-18  JIC  male 
adapters.

UNIVERSAL CONTROLLER

ELECTRICAL WIRING

Identify  the  electrical  control  cable  purchased 
with  the  snowplow.  It  has  a  square  4-pin 
weather pack connector on the fi rst end, two ring 
terminals on the second end, and a single push 
button switch on the third end.
