Important Installation Information!
It is extremely important that your motor is aligned with your winch. Non-aligned motors will be noisy
and gear wear will be accelerated.
To insure that your motor is aligned properly the motor flange must be flush with the deck plate and the
eight-sided nut must fit snugly into the octagon in the deck plate.
This can be achieved with the help of the following:
•
Drill the hole through the deck wider that the motor flange. When mounted there must be free
space between the deck and the flange.
•
Clean the deck hole before attempting the install the motor so that the motor flange does not
catch splinters of fiberglass or wood when being inserted through the deck.
•
Insure that the underside of the deck plate is clean and free from resin, varnish or sealants.
•
Do not use a sealant between the flange and deck plate. An o-ring insures a waterproof
connection. Extra waterproofing can be achieved by applying sealant to the top of the deck
plate next to the mounting nut after installation.
•
Insure that the locking screw on the mounting nut is not protruding beyond the contact surface
before tightening the mounting nut. Tighten the locking screw when the mounting nut is
securely in place.
