Read the EnTiRE iMPORTAnT SAFETy inFORMATiOn section at the beginning of this
manual including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.
Mounting the Winch
1. The mounting plate must be rated to
at least the winch’s capacity.
2. Align the winch perpendicular to center line of
the vehicle at the desired location, and mark the
locations of the winch base holes. Compare the
dimensions of the marked holes to Figure D.
3. Before drilling, verify that the installation
surface has no hidden components or
structural pieces that will be damaged.
nOTE:
This winch can generate extreme
forces. Select a location that can withstand the
rated capacity without damage or weakening.
Steel reinforcement plates may be needed or a
certified welder may need to weld on additional
bracing depending on the mounting location.
4. Drill holes appropriate for the hardware
at the marked locations.
note:
Depending on the vehicle application,
it may be beneficial to install the wiring before
mounting the wench. Check all terminal
access before mounting the winch.
5. Install the winch using hardware specified
on the specification chart. Tighten
fasteners to the listed torque values.

Mounting the Solenoid Assembly
1. Use the included brackets (attached to the
bottom of the Solenoid Box) to mount the
solenoid assembly to the tie bars of the winch.
2. Tighten the screw at the rear of the tie bar
to secure the Solenoid Box in place.
note:
If there is insufficient room on the tie bars to
install the Solenoid Box, follow the steps below.
3. Place the Solenoid Box in a suitable
place near enough to the winch to allow
the cables to be routed properly.
4. Mark where the screw holes will be.
5. Verify that the installation surface has no
hidden components or structural pieces
that will be damaged before drilling.
6. Remove the top cover of the Solenoid Box
to drill holes for mounting screws.
7. Drill pilot holes for the mounting screws.
8. Secure the solenoid assembly in
place with mounting screws.
