Improper installation of this kit could result in death or serious injury. (00308b)
NOTE
This instruction sheet refers to service manual information. A service manual for this year/model motorcycle is available from a Harley-Davidson dealer.
Electrical Overload
WARNINGWhen installing any electrical accessory, be certain not to exceed the maximum amperage rating of the fuse or circuit breaker protecting the affected circuit being modified. Exceeding the maximum amperage can lead to electrical failures, which could result in death or serious injury. (00310a)
NOTICE
It is possible to overload the vehicle's charging system by adding too many electrical accessories. If the combined electrical accessories operating at any one time consume more electrical current than the vehicle's charging system can produce, the electrical consumption can discharge the battery and cause damage to the vehicle's electrical system.

| 2. | From the top, feed the footboard pad wiring harness through the mounting hole closest to the frame. | |
| 3. | With the footboard in the "up" position, place the pad into position on the footboard. Hold it firmly in place. | |
| 4. | From the underside of the footboard, use pliers to pull each rubber isolator bead into its mating hole in the footboard. Pull it until the thick collar protrudes through the floorboard. | |
| 5. | Allow sufficient wire length to allow the footboards to pivot freely through their entire range. Use cable straps to tie the footboard pad harnesses to the back sides of the forward footboard mounting brackets. | |

SPECTRA GLO LOAD CALCULATION INFORMATION
The Spectra Glo system is limited to 3000 mA. Use the following table to determine the total current draw of the desired configuration. Calculate the total current dray by multiplying the number of kit(s) (each line) by the provided current draw. Sum all totals. The value should be less than or equal to 3000 mA. The following example describes how to calculate total system load.
