3. CONTROL SWITCH & WIRING:
For Utility Vehicle Plow with Self-Contained Hydraulics (p/n’s 1UTVP and/or 1UTVP-1)
If using a Utility Vehicle Plow Winch Lift (p/n 1UTVPW), installation is complete. Disregard this section.
3.1 See Fig 3.1. From the front of the vehicle, route the 10 ga. Black and Red ring terminal wires, the 16 ga. Black male
bullet connector and the 16 ga. Brown ring terminal part of the wiring harness under the vehicle along the frame and
back to the battery compartment.
3.2 Position the Solenoid near the battery and attach to vehicle frame and drill a 9/32” hole. Slide the 10 ga. Black
ground wire ring terminal from the battery wire harness and the main wire harness over the 1/4-20x1” long hex head
cap screw and fasten Solenoid and wires to chassis with 1/4-20x1” long hex head cap screw noted above and 1/4-20
hex nut.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The 10 ga. black ground wire must have good electrical contact with the vehicle chassis.
3.3 Route the Red 10 ga. wire from the Main wire harness to the post on the solenoid as shown in Fig 3.1. Attach the
Red 10 ga. wire from the rear battery wiring harness to the opposite post on the solenoid.
3.4 Attach the ring terminal end of the 16 ga. Brown wire onto the smaller stud at the base of the solenoid and tighten
with nut supplied.
3.5 Route the male bullet terminal end of the 16 ga. black wire to the vehicle wiring harness (This should be a key-
controlled connection).
3.6 Route the 7-pin Controller plug just under the dash on the driver’s side and cable tie to cross tube under
the dash for easy access (NOTE: make sure wires do not interfere with operation of pedals).
3.7 Route the 7-pin connector of the wiring harnesses up front and to the passenger’s side of the vehicle. Routing it
down behind the grill and exiting below it on the passenger’s side securing it to the front brush guard with
(2)1-1/2” p clamps to the bracket on the 7-pin connector with #10 screws and nuts provided in wire harness kit.
Coat inside of the 7-pin connector pins with dielectric grease.
3.8 Check the routing of both the front and rear wiring harnesses to be sure they are away from heat sources and moving
parts. Secure harnesses in place using cable ties. Close the vehicle hood.
3.9 Plug the controller into the 7-pin connector under the dash. Keep the switch turned to the off position until you are
ready to use the plow. Turn the controller on with switch on top of unit before use.
