Liftgate Installation<br />

SHUT-OFF SWITCH INSTALL (For Trailers)<br />

<strong>Waltco</strong> recommends that a Shut-Off Switch be used as<br />

a safety lockout device to prevent unauthorized use of<br />

the liftgate.<br />

Route cab switch (16GA orange and black) wire from<br />

control unit to the shut-off switch.<br />

Connect black wire to shut-off switch.<br />

Orange wire is not used.<br />

Route a wire from the shut-off switch to 10 amp circuit<br />

fuse and to battery. DO NOT connect to battery at this<br />

time.<br />

All wires and cables are to be protected<br />

from sharp edges, exhaust stream,<br />

being pinched or abraded by liftgate<br />

mechanism, cargo, etc.<br />

INSTALLATION OF COMPRESSION TERMINALS<br />

Cut power cable (red) and ground cable (black) to length<br />

and install compression terminals.<br />

Strip 7/8” to 1” of insulation from end of cable.<br />

Slide heat shrinkable tubing onto cable.<br />

Insert bare wire into compression nut until it seats.<br />

Note: Copper wire should be flush with, or slightly<br />

past, the nut.<br />

Grip nut with wrench and turn terminal until nut seats.<br />

Heat shrinkable tubing<br />

Before installation<br />

7/8” to 1”<br />

Position heat shrinkable tubing over terminal and end of<br />

cable.<br />

Shrink tubing using electric heat gun or torch.<br />

Note: To reduce chance of damaging tube and<br />

cable, a heat gun is recommended.<br />

Apply sufficient heat to produce thin bead of sealant all<br />

around tube edges.<br />
