or profit, or costs of removal, installation, or reinstallation.
Installation Instructions
Connecting Power to the Receiver
Using sufficiently heavy gauge wire, (not included), connect +12vdc and Ground wires to the
Power Input wires as marked. The polarity must be correct as follows: +12v on the WHITE
wire, and GROUND on the BLACK wire. Power may be supplied from the fused side of the
ACCessories on the ignition switch so that the Receiver is only powered while the vehicle ignition
key is on or alternatively, connected using an inline fuse (20 Amp recommended) directly to
battery power. When the Power ON/Off switch on the Receiver is turned on the Red LED indicator
light should be ON indicating normal operation. Press the “ON/OFF” button on the Receiver label
to turn the power On and Off.
Connecting the Outputs
Connect the channel output wires to the desired electrical drivers. The standard pinout
configuration is as follows:
OUTPUT CONN 1 (Centre left side of case) (Pins ccw from “dot” pin 1 looking into connector)
CH 1 Pin 1 WHITE (+12vdc when “up” button pressed)
CH 1 Pin 2 BLACK (+12vdc when “down” button pressed)
CH 2 Pin 3 GREEN (+12vdc when “up” button pressed)
CH 2 Pin 4 RED (+12vdc when “down” button pressed)
OUTPUT CONN 2 (Top left side of case) (Pins ccw from “dot” pin 1 looking into connector)
CH 3 Pin 1 WHITE (+12vdc when “up” button pressed)
CH 3 Pin 2 BLACK (+12vdc when “down” button pressed)
CH 4 Pin 3 GREEN (+12vdc when “up” button pressed)
CH 4 Pin 4 RED (+12vdc when “down” button pressed)
If the driver operates in the wrong direction when activated, reverse the two wires.
NOTE: If there is a second external control on a driver, it is recommended that diodes be installed
to protect the equipment.

Kramble Industries Inc. is not responsible or liable for indirect, special, or consequential damages arising out of or in connection
with the use or performance of the product or other damage with respect to any economic loss, loss of property, loss of revenue
or profit, or costs of removal, installation, or reinstallation.
General Operation
Receiver
The Receiver is equipped with a Power On/Off switch on the front panel. When the switch is
Pressed ON, the Red LED should be lit indicating normal operation. Press again to turn Off.
Each Channel can be operated using the Transmitter, or alternatively, by pressing the desired
UP/DOWN arrows on the Receiver to activate the Manual Switches. Whenever the selected
channel is operating, the Green LED indicating power to that device will be lit.
The DATA SWITCH is used to select how each output channel will operate when using the
Transmitter. The four-position switch controls channels 1 to 4 respectively. Each channel can be
individually set. If the Data Switch is set to position M (momentary operation) that channel will
only operate while the Transmitter button (or Manual Switch) is depressed, and will stop when
the button is released. If the Data Switch is set to position L(latched operation) that channel will
continue to operate after the Transmitter button is released, and until another signal is
eventually received.
CHANNEL 3 CONTINUOUS: All of the channels EXCEPT Channel 3 can only be operated one at a
time. That is to say, if channels 1, 2, or 4 are set for latched mode, operating a different channel
will turn OFF the operating channel and perform the new function received. Channel 3 is specially
designated in the software to continue to operate independently of the other channels. This is
so that, for example, a clean-out auger on channel 3 would continue to operate while the endgate
is also opened/closed. As this is a function of the standard software program in each unit, please
consult Kramble Industries Inc. if additional functionality is required.
The ALL OUTPUT STOP button turns off ALL outputs and is only used where one or more of the
channels is set to Latched Data.
The Receiver is matched to a Transmitter by “learning” the transmitter’s unique security code so
that the receiver will accept commands from that transmitter. The security code is provided to
prevent unwanted operation of the Receiver by other devices. When the transmitter and
receiver are matched and the transmitter "talks" to the Receiver, the yellow “RECEIVE” light will
come on. A newly-purchased system already has its transmitter matched to the receiver. It is
also possible to erase all stored security codes if desired. The Receiver is equipped with a two-
position switch to enable or disable the learn and erase functions. To enable or disable a function,
open the case and locate the switch as illustrated below. The switches and their positions are
labeled on the circuit board. Newly-purchased systems are set by default so that the Learn
function is Enabled and the Erase function is Disabled.

Kramble Industries Inc. is not responsible or liable for indirect, special, or consequential damages arising out of or in connection
with the use or performance of the product or other damage with respect to any economic loss, loss of property, loss of revenue
or profit, or costs of removal, installation, or reinstallation.
To match an additional transmitter to a receiver, first turn the receiver power switch OFF. Hold
the button marked LEARN on the receiver and turn the receiver power ON, then release the
LEARN button. The Receive/LEARN light is then lit to indicate that the receiver is waiting for a
signal from the transmitter to be learned. Press any button on the transmitter to send a signal
and the receiver will read the transmitter’s security code and store it in memory. The
Receive/LEARN light will flash three times to indicate that the transmitter has been successfully
learned, and the receiver will then enter normal operating mode. Up to eight transmitters can
be learned by a receiver. If eight transmitters have already been learned by a receiver and it is
instructed to learn another transmitter, the oldest-learned transmitter’s security code will be
overwritten and forgotten.
To erase all stored security codes, turn the receiver power ON while holding the LEARN button,
and continue holding the button until the Receive/LEARN light begins to rapidly flash. Release
the button, and the light will flash more slowly for three seconds, then turn off to indicate that
the erase operation has succeeded. If the LEARN button is pressed while the Receive/LEARN light
is slowly flashing, the erase operation is aborted and the receiver retains the stored transmitter
security codes.
The Receiver has two automatically resetting fuses. Fuse F1 (1 Amp) is intended to protect the
RF receiver and data circuitry, and Fuse F2 (4 Amp) is intended to protect the output drivers from
overload. These fuses will automatically reset when cooled
The Receiver power should be turned Off when not in use to prevent undesired operation.

Kramble Industries Inc. is not responsible or liable for indirect, special, or consequential damages arising out of or in connection
with the use or performance of the product or other damage with respect to any economic loss, loss of property, loss of revenue
or profit, or costs of removal, installation, or reinstallation.
Transmitter
The Transmitter is powered by a 9V battery which, when installed, should light the red "power"
light when the OFF/STANDBY switch is in the STANDBY position and a function switch is pressed.
If the battery does not exceed 7 volts the Power light will not light, indicating battery replacement
is required.
Each transmitter contains a unique identifying security code that is transmitted to the receiver
during RF operation. Up to eight Transmitters can "talk" to the same Receiver as long as the
receiver has learned the transmitters’ security codes.
The OFF/STANDBY switch (if equipped) must be in the STANDBY position before the Transmitter
can be activated to prevent unintentional operation of the Receiver. The OFF/STANDBY switch
does not control the Red led but the RED Led will NOT turn on when a transmitter function button
is pressed if the switch is in the OFF position. To control the Receiver, slide the OFF/STANDBY
switch to STANDBY, then press the desired channel function buttons. Slide the switch to OFF
when no control is desired. The transmitter does not use any battery power with the switch in
the STANDBY position unless a channel function control button is also pressed.
The STOP button turns off ALL Receiver outputs and is only used where one or more of the
channels is set to Latched Data.

P
rinciples of Operation:
Power from the Truck battery is sup-
plied to a toggle switch.
When the toggle switch is moved
into its “up” position it completes a circuit
and current flows through
the wire from that
terminal, through one of the coils in the Hoist
Valve, and then to Ground causing the hoist
to operate in
one direction.
When the toggle switch is moved
into its “down” position it completes an alter-
nate circuit and current flows through the
wire from that terminal, through the other coil
in the Hoist Valve, and then to Ground caus-
ing the hoist to operate in the opposite direc-
tion.
T
he Gate Command remote control system equipped
with Electric Hoist Output can be connected directly
to an electric system hoist of this type, and both sys-
tems can continue to operate. Connect the two wires
from the Gate Command Receiver directly to the Toggle
Switch using the Diode Wires as marked.
If the Hoist operates in the wrong direction when activated
then exchange the position of the two wires.
N
OTE: There are other possible operating con-
figurations. If your control does not match the
one described contact the factory to ensure
proper installation and operation.

with the use or performance of the product or other damage with respect to any economic loss, loss of property, loss of revenue
or profit, or costs of removal, installation, or reinstallation.
Electric Cylinder Installation
Before mounting the Electric Cylinder on the end gate, determine the correct location for
installing the mounting tabs by extending the cylinder and retracting to ensure required stroke.
This can be accomplished once power is supplied to the Receiver by pressing the ENDGATE
manual switches on the Receiver.
Ensure the grain chute operates freely. Position the mounting tabs such that when the grain
chute is fully opened the cylinder should be almost fully retracted. Check to ensure that the
distance to fully close does not exceed the electric cylinder stroke length and that the electric
cylinder can be mounted free of any obstacles. Weld or drill/bolt the mount tabs in position on
the vertical center-line of the grain chute and box end panel at the desired positions.
Attach the cylinder main body to the top mount tab using the bolt and locknut supplied. Attach
the cylinder piston to the moveable grain chute with the snap pin supplied. Route the electrical
wire and connect using the insulated crimp terminals supplied. Secure all wires using the cable
ties provided.
NOTE: The existing lift handle on the endgate does not have to be removed, however, it must
not be able to lock in any position. This could cause the electric cylinder to stall resulting in
reduced service life or destruction.

with the use or performance of the product or other damage with respect to any economic loss, loss of property, loss of revenue
or profit, or costs of removal, installation, or reinstallation.
Hoist Driver Installation
WARNING! Be sure truck hoist is securely blocked and valve lever activated safely
in both directions before beginning installation!
Before beginning the installation carefully note which direction the lever arm on the valve moves
for “up” and “down” and note the Hoist Driver movement as indicated on the label.
With the truck box blocked and resting securely and the engine shut off, operate
the hoist control in both directions to ensure there is no pressure on the hydraulic
valve and the safety blocks are securely positioned.
Measure the distance the valve lever arm moves in either direction from its center rest position
at the mounting pin.
The hoist driver replaces the existing flexible cable control by bolting directly in its place on the
top of the hydraulic valve/pump reservoir.
Disconnect the existing flexible cable control from the valve arm and unbolt the cable from the
reservoir bracket.
Select the appropriate hole to install the Hoist Driver Push Rod. The distance from the center of
the Hoist Driver Shaft Arm to the selected hole should be roughly the same as but not greater
than the distance the valve lever arm moves in either direction from its center rest position at
the mounting pin. The Hoist Driver Shaft Arm is designed to turn 80 degrees in either direction.
If it is stalled in either direction because the valve lever arm is not free to move, the Hoist Driver
may be damaged or destroyed.
Slide the Hoist Driver Push Rod through the valve lever arm cable clamp and bolt the Hoist Driver
to the reservoir mounting tab using the 5/16 x ¾ bolt, nut, flat washer, and lock washer, provided.
Properly installed, the Hoist Driver Push Rod should be at right angles to the Hoist Driver Shaft
Arm. Ensure there is clearance for the movement of the valve lever arm, push rod, and shaft arm.
Tighten the existing valve lever arm cable clamp on to the Hoist Driver Push Rod.
Connect one end of the pre-wired 4 conductor hoist cable back to the Hoist Driver. Route the
other end to the Receiver and connect to the Receiver HOIST CONTROL connector. Secure the
cable to the truck chassis as required. Note: It does not matter which end is which.
