STEP 1 INSTALL ROLLER FAIRLEAD
STEP 3 MAKE QUICK CONNECTS
STEP 2 WINCH ON WINCH PLATE
Install the roller fairlead to the mounting plate using two M8x20 cap
screws, flat washers, lock washers and hex nuts.
Locate the 4 foot red and black cables from your installation kit.
Using a wire cutter, cut both cables 1 foot from one end of each cable.
You will now have two 3-foot cables with a ring terminal on one end,
and two 1-foot cables with a ring terminal on one end. These cables
will be your quick disconnect. Strip all four bare wire ends and crimp
the quick connect terminals onto each wire. Install the wire with
terminal into the plastic quick connector housing, paying special
attention to ensure that the black wires are on the (-) side and the red
wires on the (+) of each connector housing. Connect the ring terminal
end of the short wires to the winch motor terminals, black on (-), red
on (+). Set the winch aside for now.
Place the winch upside down on a flat surface and align the holes in
the mounting with plate with the holes in the bottom of the winch.
Carefully place the winch mount on top of the mounting plate to en-
sure your bolt holes remain aligned. Bolt the mount, mounting plate,
and winch together using the M8x15 cap screws and lock washers.
These bolts thread directly into the bottom of the winch. Tighten these
bolts securely, but do not overtighten.
