Installation is simple and typically connected in line next to the hydraulic control block.<\/p> <ol class=\"schema-how-to-steps\"><li class=\"schema-how-to-step\" id=\"how-to-step-1660144150542\"><strong class=\"schema-how-to-step-name\">Determine if machine is 2 pin or 3 pin style<br\/>Note: Due to the many diverse machine models and configurations available, you may be required to reconfigure or purchase your own applicable electrical connections. It is entirely possible that there are male pins in a male Weatherpack (WP) socket on the OEM harness which would require changing out hydraulic work switch ends (male and male won\u2019t work).<br\/>TIP: Temporarily wire switch to drill harness to verify proper function before connecting pins into WP shroud plugs. If backwards, display will indicate machine in up position when it is actually down. If this happens you will need to switch green and red wires on the hydraulic work switch side.<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-how-to-step-text\">The hydraulic switch comes with a 2-pin and 3-pin Weatherpack (WP) shroud (black casing) tied to the end of the electrical cable. There are 3 different wires coming from the hydraulic work switch: red, green, and black. Determine if your machine configuration is a 2 pin or 3 pin style.<br\/><br\/>2 PIN STYLE: The black wire\/pin should be installed in the B location and is always used. If the switch is \u201cnormally open\u201d, fully insert the RED pin into slot A as shown in Figure 2 and 3. The green wire is for systems that have a \u201cnormally closed\u201d circuit (do not connect this wire\/pin in a \u201cnormally open\u201d circuit).<br\/>3 PIN STYLE: (Some JD Drills) The black hydraulic work switch wire should be connected to the brown wire, and red to red. The green wire will not be used and should be left unconnected. If possible, plug the unused electrical socket end. If applicable, the electrical casing may then be closed to create a tight seal.<br\/><em>Figure 2: 2 Pin WP Shroud<\/em><br\/> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"199\" height=\"181\" src=\"https:\/\/rede-ag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/REL04-HYDRAULIC-WORK-SWITCH-KIT-300x271.jpg\" class=\"attachment-200x180.51282051282 size-200x180.51282051282\" alt=\"AG-K18 Hydraulic Work Switch\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rede-ag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/REL04-HYDRAULIC-WORK-SWITCH-KIT-300x271.jpg 300w, https:\/\/rede-ag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/REL04-HYDRAULIC-WORK-SWITCH-KIT-13x12.jpg 13w, https:\/\/rede-ag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/REL04-HYDRAULIC-WORK-SWITCH-KIT.jpg 390w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px\" \/><br\/><br\/><em>Figure 3: 3 Pin WP Shroud<\/em><br\/> <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"168\" src=\"https:\/\/rede-ag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Figure-3.jpg\" class=\"attachment-200x168.14814814815 size-200x168.14814814815\" alt=\"AG-K18 Hydraulic Work Switch\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rede-ag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Figure-3.jpg 270w, https:\/\/rede-ag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Figure-3-14x12.jpg 14w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/p> <\/li><li class=\"schema-how-to-step\" id=\"how-to-step-1660579698471\"><strong class=\"schema-how-to-step-name\">Pre-assemble fittings<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-how-to-step-text\">Pre-assemble fittings.

Simply remove the hydraulic hose, install the hydraulic work switch assembly, &amp; re-attach lift circuit hose.

It is entirely possible that there are male pins in a male Weatherpack (WP) socket on the OEM harness which would require changing out hydraulic work switch ends (male and male won\u2019t work). TIP: Temporarily wire switch to drill harness to verify proper function before connecting pins into WP shroud plugs.

There are 3 different wires coming from the hydraulic work switch: red, green, and black. Determine if your machine configuration is a 2 pin or 3 pin style.2 PIN STYLE: The black wire\/pin should be installed in the B location and is always used. If the switch is \u201cnormally open\u201d, fully insert the RED pin into slot A as shown in Figure 2 and 3. The green wire is for systems that have a \u201cnormally closed\u201d circuit (do not connect this wire\/pin in a \u201cnormally open\u201d circuit).3 PIN STYLE: (Some JD Drills) The black hydraulic work switch wire should be connected to the brown wire, and red to red. The green wire will not be used and should be left unconnected. If possible, plug the unused electrical socket end.
