1. Find a convenient location to install the disconnect plug at
the rear of the vehicle. Make sure it can be reached by any
planned accessories. As an example, Warn’s Multi-Mount
System places the winch power connection on the left hand
side of the receiver as viewed when facing the receiver.
2. Route the cables along one of the vehicle frame members.
The cables will be connected to the vehicle battery so keep
in mind on which side of the vehicle the battery is located.
Note: Avoid routing or securing the cables next to any
moving parts, such as suspension components (springs,
shocks, anti-swaybars, etc.) or driveline components
(axles or driveshafts). Avoid routing the cables next to
any components that generate heat (exhaust manifolds,
catalytic converters or mufflers). Avoid routing the cables
next to any sharp edges that may cut the cable insulation
(frame member edges or holes).
3. Route the cable up through the engine compartment to the
battery. Take care not to interfere with the cooling fan, fan
belt, or other accessory drive belts. Avoid contact with any
moving parts or high heat generating components.
Note: Before attaching the cables to the battery, be sure there
are no accessories attached to the opposite end of the
cable.

• Always inspect the quick connect polarity on the cable from the
battery AND the cable from the winch.
• Always inspect the quick connect polarity on the cable from the
battery AND the cable from the winch, before connecting the cables
to the battery. Make sure the positive (+) cable exits the side of the
plug marked with a “+” symbol, and the negative (-) ground cable
exits the side of the plug marked with a “-” symbol. The positive cable
can be identified by the white stripe and the “+” symbols printed on
the insulation. Some positive cables have red insulation. The ground
cable is black.
Read installation and operating instructions thoroughly.
CARELESS INSTALLATION AND OPERATION CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE. READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING AND OPERATING THIS PRODUCT.
4. Attach the (+) positive cable to the appropriate terminal
of the Power Interrupt Solenoid. See the Power Interrupt
Instructions for the proper connection.
5. Attach the black, (-) negative cable directly to the vehicle
battery (-) negative terminal. This will insure a good ground
for the electrical circuit.
6. Secure the cables along the vehicle frame using the cable
ties provided. The cables should be installed so that no
wearing, chafing or abrasion of the insulation can occur.
Avoid contact with sharp edges or burrs.
7. The disconnect plug can be attached to the vehicle with the
appropriate size hardware inserted through the molded-in
holes. Use 1/4” fasteners for the 175amp plug and #6
fasteners for the 50amp plug, (fasteners are not supplied).
Do not over tighten. Damage to the plug may result.

• Never route electrical cables:
• Across any sharp edges.
• Through or near moving parts.
• Near parts that become hot..
Read installation and operating instructions thoroughly.
