WINCH ASSEMBLY AND MOUNTING:

Winch is designed with a standard bolt pattern for its class. Different mounting kits are 

available that utilize this pattern.

When installing, ensure that Mounting Plate installs to a flat surface so Motor, Winch 

Drum, and Gear Housing are properly aligned. Proper alignment allows for even 

distribution of full rated loads.

1.  Install supplied Fairlead to supplied Mounting Plate with supplied hardware.

2.  Install Winch to Mounting Plate with supplied hardware:

-  Set Free Spooling Clutch to “OUT” and pull out a few inches of Synthetic Rope.

-  Feed Synthetic Rope through opening in front of Mounting Plate and through Fairlead.

3.  Make electrical and component connections; 

See SuperATV instructions

.

4.  Assemble Clevis Hook to Synthetic Rope.

-  Remove Pin from Clevis Hook and connect Clevis Hook to Synthetic Rope.

-  Reinstall Pin to Clevis Hook. 

5.  Install Stopper to Synthetic Rope.

6.  Install Hand Strap to Clevis Hook.

7.  Check Winch Drum for proper rotation:

-  Set Free Spooling Clutch to “OUT” and pull out some Synthetic Rope.

-  Set Free Spooling Clutch to “IN” and press “OUT” button on Rocker Switch. If properly 

installed, Winch Drum should be turning and 

releasing

 Synthetic Rope. If Winch Drum 

is turning and 

collecting

 more Synthetic Rope, reverse leads on Motor. Repeat and 

check rotation.

- Remove all jewelry and wear eye protection when making battery 

connections. Batteries contain flammable and explosive gases. 

Avoid leaning over battery.
