The control rod kit includes all of the parts that you need to connect one BullFrog turnout control to your control panel and includes:

• 1 - 36" length of Control Rod (both outer and inner rods)
• 1 - Z Bend Connector
• 1 - Installation wrench (To screw the control rod onto the Z bend connector)
• 1 - Control Rod Retainer Clip
• 1 - Plain Knob kit

Connecting the control rod is a simple matter of installing the Z Bend connector into the BullFrog, inserting the outer control rod (red) into the BullFrog control rod mount (it is a press fit), and then screwing the inner control rod (yellow) into the Z Bend connector.

The control rod is mounted to the back of your control panel with a mounting clip.The knob is then screwed into the end of the yellow control rod. The knob comes unassembled, but can be put together in a few minutes with a bit of white glue. We also offer a complete selection of deluxe knobs that can be customized with your own labeling.
