2.
All four mounting holes in the bottom of each supporting casting must be used.
MOUNTING DIMENSIONS
After Mounting Check
After mounting and tightening all mounting bolts, place the winch in freespool and check the
drum rotation. If the winch is mounted incorrectly, it may bind causing poor freespooling and
decreased winch performance.
Binding drum? If the drum does bind, loosen all mounting bolts and rotate the drum once again
to see if it free rotates. Tighten the bolts one at a time, slowly, checking the drum rotation until
the winch is securely fastened. If the drum continues to bind, it could be that one or more of the
mounting system’s holes are out of position.
