INTRODUCTION

The K&K Systems’Message Signs are mobile changeable message signs that are

mounted onto a service vehicle or a trailer with winch type or hydraulic lift. They

utilize energy ecient LED displays and the latest and most ecient solar panels

to display your message brightly and continuously during the day, night in any

weather condition.

All units are completely setup and ready for use. Program your message using

wireless connectivity and the K&K cloud-based CrossTalk software, Bluetooth

connected tablet with installed software, or the on-board qwerty keyboard. Super

bright LED technology with 100,000 hour rating displays alphanumeric text and

full matrix graphics with quick message selection switch.

K&K’s units are fabricated from aluminum with a at black powder coat nish to

give a smooth look and prevent rust.

The standard Vehicle Mounted Message Sign features a folding frame operated by

an actuator. The message sign folds out automatically when the unit is powered

on, and automatically folds down when the unit is powered o for when the

vehicle is moving. Maintenance of internal parts is made easy with the front door

access design. Vehicle Mounted Message Signs are available in your choice of one-

line, two-line, and three-line with mounting options and sizes to meet your needs.

Should K&K not have a system that meets your needs, we will custom design a

system to meet your specications

MESSAGE SIGN

The display housing is framed in extruded

aluminum and has a Lexan face that provides

UV protection along with glare resistance. The

message sign uses LED (light emitting diodes) to

produce text and images.

Your Trailer Mounted Message Sign provides messaging

functionality to display predened and custom messages

text. Full Matrix Message Signs can also display MUTCD

graphics and animations. To catch motorists’attention

we include an option to make the message ash.

COMPONENTS

TRAILER MOUNT POWER SOURCE

Our products incorporate a battery pack wired for 12 volt operation. The number

of batteries may vary depending on the requirements of the design. The system

comes standard with four (4) 12 volt sealed batteries, totaling 400 amps, or two

(2) 12 volt batteries, totaling 200 amps. The units come with 140 watts of solar,

standard. The battery bank is regulated and protected by a solid-state charge

controller/low voltage disconnect that is built into the CrossTalk. This prevents

gassing and over discharging of the batteries, which can result in premature failure.

VEHICLE MOUNT POWER SOURCE

The truck mounted message board comes standard with a 25ft power cable that

is to be integrated into the vehicles existing power system. The smart controller

prevents the message board from draining the vehicles battery while it is in the

OFF mode during storage. The arrow board is designed to be operated while the

vehicles engine is on, to prevent the draining of its battery, but can be operated

sparingly while the vehicle is o.

TRAILER BATTERY BOX

The ventilated battery box is steel fabricated with a top

mount lid that is sealed with hardware to protect the

batteries, charger, and hydraulic system.

CONTROL BOX AND CONTROLLERS

The control box contains the control panel, on/o switch, main processing unit,

keyboard and solar charge controller, Bluetooth tablet, and CrossTalk Controller.

The control box is constructed of heavy duty aluminum and is weatherproof to

protect its components.

Battery Box

Regular Font Style Bold Font Style Graphics/Animations

TRAILER

The trailer is fabricated from tubular steel

with a tubular steel axle. It is powder

coated with safety orange, black or white.

Custom colors are available upon request.

Adjustable jacks are mounted at each

corner of the trailer. The tongue features

a wheeled jack. The taillights are dual

combination reective lights with stop, tail,

and turn signal. Trailers come standard with

ve lug appropriately sized wheels and tires.

PRECAUTIONS, SAFETY, AND

MAINTENANCE

The following are K&K Systems’recommendations for safe and responsible use.

Please remember that the best assurance against accidents is a careful and responsible operator.

PRECAUTIONS

Inspect your unit upon delivery. Wires and plugs may have loosened during

shipment which will cause operational issues. Even though the system arrives

ready to run, inspect all components and test before installation. Test the unit

before installation for convenient working conditions.

• Periodically inspect the trailer and/or unit. This includes but not limited to wheels,

tongue, pins, safety chains, taillights, nuts, bolts, cable clamps, etc. Tighten, repair,

or replace when and where necessary.

• O-load trac cones and barricades prior to message sign deployment.

• The trailer should always be properly setup and leveled with the jack stands

before the message sign is raised.

• Always use safety chains and properly sized hitch ball when towing the unit.

• Always tow trailer units in the down position.

BATTERIES

The batteries are sealed. Check all terminals for proper connection, tightness,

and corrosion. Check the battery condition and charge when necessary or after

storage. It is recommended that the batteries be charged every 3 to 6 months,

regardless of weather conditions. Use an apron, gloves, and safety glasses when

working on batteries. When the batteries have come to the end of their life cycle,

please dispose of them in accordance with your local laws and regulations.

BATTERY CHARGER SAFETY

The battery charger is preset in automatic position. DO NOT CHANGE THESE

SETTINGS because of possible overcharging of batteries. Plug cord into a standard

120 volt AC for charging.

SOLAR PANELS

During operation, keep the solar panel clean of excessive dirt and debris by using

only soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. Periodically check the integrity of the

wiring connections in the junction box. Inspect for signs of damage to the solar

panel’s glass or frame.

MAINTENANCE

• K&K recommends that the user clean the solar panels every 6 months. Over time

the solar panels may build up a thin layer of dust/dirt/road grime that can

adversely aect their eciency signicantly.

• Check the battery every 6 months to ensure proper charging. If below 12.3 volts,

charge to keep power reserves high. Check solar system by cleaning the panel

and inspecting wiring for wear and secure connection.

• Check that the mounting is secure and has not shifted as the solar panel may shift

direction over time. Ensure the panel is facing South.

• Check the system a few days after installation to ensure proper charging and

operation.

TOWING AND

LONG-TERM STORAGE

TOWING

Failure to follow these instructions exactly can cause hitch ball failure or loss of trailer

attachment resulting in a vehicle crash and/or personal injury.

Use the hitch ball only for towing trailers or vehicles connected to the ball with a socket-type

coupler. The ball diameter must match the coupler socket size. Do not exceed the gross

trailer weight shown on the ball.

Improper tightening can cause hitch ball failure or loss of trailer attachment.

• The threaded shank must protrude beyond the bottom of nut when tightened. If it does

not, the ball shank is too short for the application and loss of attachment may occur.

• Check the nut tightness every time you hook up the trailer and at the beginning of each

towing day. Tow only if the nut is tightened as specied.

• Replace any damaged or worn parts (except nish).

• Never attach a tow rope, chain, or stretch type elastic rope to the hitch ball.

• Do not fasten the trailer safety chain or any other type of attachment to or with, the ball.

• Lubricate the ball and coupler to minimize wear and friction. The coupler must not bind on

the ball.

This product complies with V.E.S.C. Regulation V-5, C.S.A. Standard D-264 and the Safety

Specications and Requirements for Connection Devices and Towing Systems.

TRAILER MOUNT LONG-TERM STORAGE

When the sign is to be stored for extended periods of time, it is recommended to store the

unit outdoors and in a sunny area to allow the unit to maintain the charge on the batteries.

If it is to be stored indoors, keep the unit plugged into the AC charger when possible. When

the sign is to begin operation again, a thorough inspection of all systems is advised before

the sign is towed to the job site. Check the battery state of charge to conrm over 12 volts.

VEHICLE MOUNT LONG-TERM STORAGE
