3. Set the parking brake.
Note: If your vehicle does not have a parking brake, chock the wheels.
4. Turn the levers on the couplers to the ATTACH position (Figure 20).
5. Remove the electrical-plug dust-covers and connect the plow wire harness to the vehicle wire harness (Figure 19).

7. Using the coupler handle, push the coupler tower upward until the coupler spring pins snap in (Figure 21).
8. Ensure that both coupler spring pins have fully engaged the coupler (Figure 20).
Note: Move the coupler tower until the spring pins engage completely.
