STEP 2 - Fitting the deck plate
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
•
Position the winch drilling template [A3] in the required position on the deck, ensuring that there
is adequate flat space for the deck plate/ winch base.
•
The 28 and 34 ST winches have only one self-tailing arm position, so it is important to rotate the
winch template to give the required self-tailing arm position (as required for operation, refer page
17). The 40ST winch has the option of eight different self-tailing arm positions as indicated on the
drilling template (refer page 18).
•
Considering the product dimensions, shown on pages 15 & 16, check that there is adequate
space below deck for the motor unit. You may choose to drill a small pilot hole to indicate the
position of the center of the drive shaft, to assist with this.
*Note:
The motor unit can be installed in eight positions around the center of the drive shaft
(i.e. at 45° increments), to facilitate fitting the motor unit into restricted under-deck cavities.
See pages 15 & 16 for the minimum motor offset dimensions at the various positions. Placing the
deck plate on the motor unit in the various positions prior to installation can assist with visualising
the motor position options.
*Note:
To ensure the correct functioning of the winch, it should be positioned with the correct
line entry angle of 3-8° below horizontal. Refer to the winch product manual for details of
correct line entry angle and self-tailing arm positioning.
•
After it has been confirmed that there is adequate space for the winch above deck, and for the
motor unit below deck;
•
Drill Ø6.5mm holes for the M6 deck plate mounting bolts as per the drilling template [A3].
Drill Ø9/32” holes if 1/4” bolts are being used.
•
Drill or cut a Ø85mm (3 3/8’’) hole for motor drive shaft housing as per the drilling template.
*Note:
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. Clean the deck with a suitable solvent to ensure the sealant can adhere properly.
•
Apply sealant to the deck where the deck plate will be fitted. For aluminium boats use a galvanic
isolating ring/gasket.
• Fit the deck plate to the deck using appropriate length M6 (or 1/4”) countersunk head bolts,
large backing washers or plate, and Nyloc nuts.
