TEH SUPPORT: 503.693.1918 WWW.AUTOO.OM UNIVERSA POWER WIPER KIT AUTWIPER INTRODUTION Measure Distances And ut Aluminum Tubing These instructions are meant as a guide and pertain to general installation. If you experience any difficulty during installation, please do not hesitate to contact our tech support line. INSTAATION a. Determine a suitable area to mount the wiper motor and wiper shafts. Wiper motors are generally mounted Firewall/Other Mounting Surface under a dash or behind the firewall of vehicle. All three components must line up with each other. Bending of aluminum tubing may be required, but only to a small degree to avoid binding of coil drive cable. Take into consideration the sweep rotation and park position of Rubber Grommet Positioned On Outside the wiper arms and clearance issues before all holes Of Wiper owl are drilled. figure 2 b. To mount wiper motor, drill 4-5/32 holes. (fig. 1) NOTE: Metal plate bolted to the back of the wiper motor may be used as a template when mounting. c. To mount wiper shafts, drill a 3/8 hole for each location. Use masking tape to avoid scratching any paint. Be sure the holes drilled into the wiper cowl are at a 90 angle to the windshield. Remove splined end with allen wrench and remove nut, washer and rubber grommet. Insert wiper shaft into hole and tighten nut, washer and rubber grommet. Adjust to correct mounting figure 3 depth. Shafts may also need to be shortened. Rubber grommet must be on outside to avoid damage to paint and to seal from the elements of nature. (fig. 2) d. If wiper shafts need to be shortened, disassemble units by unscrewing nuts. Remove the gear shaft. Mark the gear shaft and threaded housing to correct length. Remember gear shaft will be longer than threaded housing. There needs to be an extra 3/8 of shaft past the end of the threaded housing. ut both pieces separately, debure and reassemble. (fig. 3) e. Measure distance between the two wiper shafts. ut aluminum tube to correct distance. Do the same with the space between wiper motor and closest wiper shaft. (fig. 4) Once aluminum is cut and installed, all pieces should fit together like figure 6. NOTE: Be sure the tubes do not touch the wiper shaft gear when installing. f. Feed the coil drive cable through the aluminum tubes and wiper shafts. (fig. 5) Make sure wiper shafts spin when coil is fed through gear. The remaining coil can be cut once installation is finalized. g. Plug in provided wire and run from wiper motor to dash. Determine location for wiper switch. Drill a 1/2 hole clear of any wires or other equipment in dash. Follow provided wiring diagram. h. Test, make adjustments and apply grease to all moving parts. figure 1 Insert oil Into Metal Tube figure 4 figure 5 figure 6 05/19/2015 AUTWIPER Version 7 Page 1 of 4 2015 The Hoffman Group...

TEH SUPPORT: 503.693.1918 WWW.AUTOO.OM USER GUIDE AND INSTAATION MANUA FAQ s Q. Why are the metal tubes so long? A. This is a universal kit. The tubes must be cut to correct length depending on vehicle and mounting points of wiper shafts. The 2 tubes separate the wiper motor from the wiper shaft, separate the two wiper shafts and provide a place to feed the coil drive cable through. Q. What is the distance between wiper shafts? A. Distance varies depending on vehicle application. First choose correct length wiper arms (not included.) Using wiper arms, you can determine what area they will cover on your windshield. Try different pivot points until a satisfactory location is found for mounting the wiper shafts. WIRING DIAGRAM onnect plug on motor to plug on wiring harness and connect wires from harness as shown below.
