Setting up your WESTERN® LOW-PRO 300W wireless spreader is quick and straightforward when you have the right steps. Getting your wireless controls synced correctly is essential for reliable, on-the-go spreader operation. This guide walks you through the process of resetting your fob and pairing it with your vehicle-side control board to get you back to work with confidence.

Step 1: Reset the Wireless Remote

Before pairing, you must clear any existing data from your key fob:

  • Ensure the 7-pin power plug is connected to your truck or UTV.
  • Locate the reset button on the back of the fob and press it using a paper clip.
  • When the blue light on the fob begins to flash, enter this sequence on the keypad: 50% — OFF — 100%.
  • Repeat the sequence: 50% — OFF — 100%.
  • Wait for the blue light to stop flashing.

Step 2: Testing Manual Override

Verify that your system is communicating correctly before finalizing the pairing:

  • Flip the toggle switch to the Manual Override position.
  • Disconnect the 7-pin power plug, wait a few seconds, and reconnect it. The spreader should start.
  • Once it starts, disconnect the power again.
  • Flip the toggle switch back to Neutral and reconnect the power.

Step 3: Pairing with the Control Board

Now, sync the fob to your spreader’s control board:

  • Press and hold the toggle switch in the Learn position for 15 seconds to erase any previous programming.
  • Toggle the switch to Learn mode again for 2 seconds, then release.
  • Immediately press and hold the 50% button on your key fob for up to 30 seconds.
  • Once the spreader starts, test the OFF and 100% buttons on the fob to ensure full functionality.
