8. Mark the conduit at 17" from the point at which the
harness and conduit exit the hitch pole.

9. Run the harness through the hole in the machine
frame (see Fig. 3).

10. At the 17" point that you marked in Step 8, take the
GREEN/BROWN wire out of the conduit. Wrap this
wire with the 40" conduit (see below).

16. Where the conduit around the YELLOW wire runs
out, route the YELLOW wire into the conduit with the
GREEN/BROWN wire. Run this conduit to the fender
(see Fig. 6).

11. Run the rest of the 48" conduit (YELLOW/BROWN
wire) to the left fender.

12. Run the GREEN/BROWN wire up to the surface of the
machine near the hydraulic oil filter.

13. Split the YELLOW/BROWN excess wire. Cut off a
20" inch piece of YELLOW wire from the excess wire.
Solder an end of this yellow wire to the black wire that
comes from the license plate light plug.

14. Wrap this BLACK wire with the 15" conduit as shown
below. Run the conduit through the clamp on the
license angle.

then into the fender itself. Run the conduit along the
inside top edge of the fender and out through the hole
by the light (see below).
