MOUNTING WINCH
MOUNTING WINCH
Choose a mounting location
that is suffi
ciently strong enough
to withstand the loads you intend
to winch. Only the mounting
orientations shown are possible for
safe winching operation. All others
are improper and inappropriate.
The use of recommended bolt and
lock washer combinations torqued
to recommended levels will prevent
vibration during operation. The
mounting details indicate the proper
torque levels.
Remember the winch rope
must always spool onto the drum as
indicated by the drum rotation decal.
Refer to the following diagrams
for proper mounting orientation.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Use the included insulating
boots on exposed connections to
prevent electrical shorting. Route
battery connection cables in areas
which will not cause them to chafe or
cut through the insulation causing a
potential short circuit.
Upon completion of installation,
check winch for proper operation.
WARNING
Never
route
electrical cables
across sharp edges.
WARNING
Never
route
electrical cables near
parts that get hot.
WARNING
Never
route
electrical cables
through or near
moving parts.
WARNING
Always
place the
supplied terminal
boots on wires
and terminals
as directed by
the installation
instructions.
Battery Recommendations
A fully charged battery and
good connections are essential to
the proper operation of your winch.
The minimum requirement for a 12
volt DC battery is 650 Cold Cranking
Amps.
WARNING
Always
insulate and
protect all exposed
wiring and electrical
terminals.
