Chute Installaon
Figure 3
1. Slide the chute gear ring (RED56SH-0007) over the top of the impeller housing chimney as shown in gure 2. The teeth should engage with the sprocket
as shown in gure 3.
2. Place the two half moon chute gear clamps (RED56SH-0006) underneath the chute gear ring.
3. Set the chute on top of the impeller housing chimney and align bolt holes of all three components as shown in gure 4.
4. Use (8) bolts (LAN4A16A16) and (8) lock nuts (REDKRJ8) to aach chute gear, half moon clamps, and chute together to complete assembly.
5. Grease the ange with the zerk installed on the boom side of chimney ange. Rotate chute as you grease to ensure even grease distribuon.
6. Tighten or loosen nuts aer greasing to maintain a rm grip that will rotate easily.
7. Slide motor and gear assembly forward to make a ght t with the chute gear and ghten bolts aaching the motor to the housing as shown in gure 5.
8. Aach hoses labeled Chute to the hydraulic cylinder.

Skid Steer Wiring Installaon - Pin Connector
Figure 6
• In the wiring kit, there are 2 bags with similar pigtails and pin connectors:
a 8-Pin and a 14-Pin. These cover most skid loaders makes and models.
Determine which connector your skid steer can use and set the other
aside. If yours does not have a receptacle or one that doesn’t match the
pin connectors provided, skip these steps and go to the Rocker Switch
Installaon.
1. Either consult your skid loader owner’s or use a test light to determine
which pins in the skid loader connect with the switches in the cab and
which pin is ground.
2. Assemble the pin connector with what you learn. As long as the ground
(black) pin is placed correct, the other 4 wires can be mixed around.

Skid Steer Wiring Installaon - Rocker Switches
Figure 9
Use these instrucons if the 8-Pin and 14-Pin connectors will not work on your skid loader.
The switches may be located in the provided switch plates, or in available switch knockouts in the skid steer. The below instrucons show a
typical skid steer installaon. Locaon details will vary between makes and models.
1. Insert two momentary switches (REDRS1093) into the upper cab panel (Figures 9 & 10).
2. Aach the one of the short red wires from RED56WIR-4 to the middle post of a momentary switches. (The momentary switches are idencal.)
Then aach the blue wire and the brown wire of harness RED56WIR-3 to the same switch, one on either side of the red wire (Figure 11). This will
be your chute rotaon motor switch.
3. Aach the other short red wire from RED56WIR-4 to the middle post of the second momentary switch. Then aach the green wire and yellow
wire of harness RED56WIR-3 to the switch, one on each side of the red wire (Figure 12). This will be your deector control switch.
4. Connect the free end of the Red wire (RED56WIR-4) to the power wire on the skid loader and the free end of the Black wire of harness
(RED56WIR-3) to a ground wire on the skid loader (Figure 13).

Skid Steer Wiring Installaon - Solenoid Connecons
1. Connect the 4 connectors shown in Figure 15 and labeled 1-4 to the
solenoid receptacles in the hydraulic block of Figure 14.
2. Pair connector 1 with 2 and 3 with 4 on the solenoids.
Note: Reconguring which ports or solenoids the connectors mate with
will depend on your preference. Switching upper and lower ports within a
pair (ex. 1 & 2) will reverse the switch direcon in the cab. Swapping the
pairs with each other (1 & 2 with 3 & 4) will change what a switch in the
cab controls (chute rotaon or deector).
3. Connect the female end of the harness to either the pin connector
harness or the rocker switch harness.
