Secure all cables using cable
ties and/or cable clips (mount
clips with self-tap screws).
Chassis Ground Corrosion:
When mounting chassis ground
cables, remove undercoating, dirt,
rust, etc. from the framing member
around the mounting holes. Apply
a protective coating to mounting
holes to prevent corrosion. Apply
grease to ground cable terminals
and mounting hardware. Failure
to do so will void warranty of
certain electrical components.
An 8-pin Deutsch connector
is mounted at the back of the
RA300 ramp. A mating connector
(male plug) is supplied with the
ramp. The power supply (12 volt
or 24 volt), the ground, a ramp
OUT signal (+) and a ramp IN sig-
nal (+) must be terminated in the
supplied Deutsch connector.
The ramp installer provides an
appropriate control switch for the
end user. A momentary contact
ramp control switch (center off)
will typically be mounted near the
driver. The control switch may
be part of a panel providing other
features and controls (power on/
off indicators, LED’s, etc.).

The Positive (+) “battery” lead wire must
be protected by an in-line 30 ampere
fuse or circuit breaker (installer pro-
vided).
Do not connect the power “battery” lead
wire to the battery until all other connec-
tions are made.
Connect the 8-pin Deutsch male plug to
the mating Deutsch connector mounted
at the back of the pan.
Carefully connect the power “battery”
lead wire to the Positive (+) battery post.
