Attaching the Wire Harness
The wire harness supplied must be installed on the trailer of your new DR ROAD-TOWABLE CHIPPER
before you can transport the machine on public roadways. Identify the “Road Side” and “Curb Side of the
trailer from Figure 5 below.
NOTE: There is an Access Hole in each Tail Light Mounting Bracket so the Wire Harness can be attached to each
light. The Yellow/Brown wire in the Harness is for the Road Side light and Green/Brown wire is for the
Curb Side light. The White wire is for the Ground.
Tools and Supplies Needed:
• Wire Stripper
• (8) Cable Ties (provided)
• (2) 3/4" Wrench or Socket
• Electrical tape
1. Strip 1/2" of insulation from the ends of the Yellow/Brown and Green/Brown wires.
2. Thread the Yellow/Brown wires through the Access Hole in the Road Side Tail Light Mounting Bracket.
3. Push the Yellow wire into the top left hole in the back of the light socket and push the Brown wire into
the top right hole.
NOTE: The wires will be connected and retained in the light socket holes by spring-loaded connections.
4. Thread the Green/Brown wires through the Access Hole in the Curb Side Tail Light Mounting Bracket.
5. Push the Green wire into the top left hole in the back of the light socket and push the Brown wire into
the top right hole.
6. Once the wires are correctly attached in the light sockets, secure the Harness to the Trailer Frame using
the cable ties (Figure 5) as follows:
- Attach the Curb Side wires to the Frame at points 1, 2, and 3 (Figure 5).
- Attach the Road Side wires to the Frame at point 4 (Figure 5).
- Attach both Curb and Road Side wires to the Frame at points 5, 6, 7, and 8 (Figure 5).
7. Strip 1" of insulation from the end of the White (Ground) wire.
8. Loosen a Trailer Hitch Bolt, wrap the Ground wire around the Bolt, and then re-tighten.
NOTE: We recommend that you wrap the Harness wires together with electrical tape about every twelve (12)
inches starting at tie point 5 (Figure 5) and going toward the hitch.
