ASSEMBLY
SWITCH BOX WIRING (JOYSTICK)
Refer to the parts section for wiring diagram to hook up the switch box. Cover
the four wires (1-white / 2-green & blue / 1-red) from the on / off terminal of the switch
box with plastic wire wrap provided. Run these wires through the drilled hole in the
right side panel of the steering column on next page.
With the panel under the steering wheel removed to access the wires, locate the
brown wire. Using a test light or meter to verify this wire is the neutral safety wire.
Cut the brown wire and connect the green & blue wires from the switch box as
shown in the wiring diagram.
To run the white wire to the solenoid valve, you will need to drill a hole in the front
edge of the cab behind the front council. Insert a rubber grommet into the hole to
protect the wire, and route the wire out of the cab to the solenoid valve.
The red wire from the on / off terminal is to be hooked to the tractor ignition switch or
an available slot in the fuse box. NOTE: +12 VOLTS ELECTRICAL POWER
MUST BE TAKEN FROM A SOURCE LOCATION WHERE IT IS LIVE ONLY
WHEN THE IGNITION SWITCH IS IN THE “ON” POSITION. THIS WIRE MUST
BE FUSED AT THE SOURCE LOCATION
The travel lock red wire from the switch box should also be covered with wire
wrap and should run with the white wire through the grommet. This wire will be
connected to the electronic travel lock located on the main boom cylinder. The wires
from the switch box are longer than needed and should be carefully cut and spliced
as required. Zip ties should be used to secure the wires to the tractor framework
and boom hoses to eliminate vibation and rubbing.
The black ground wire from the switch box can be attached to the switch box
mounting bracket.
A 2-1/8” hole must be drilled in the floor of the cab on the right side of the steering
wheel. The center of the hole is located 12” from the front window and 4-1/2” from
the right cab door. Shown on the next page.
Wrap the valve cables in hose wrap and route the cables through the hole in the
floor of the cab. The hose wrap will stick out above and below the hole in the cab
floor. Use zip ties to secure the hose wrap to the cables. Seal the edge of the hole
with silicon sealant or strip caulk.
