HOIST INSTALLATION TO TRUCK CHASSIS
1. Place the SL-212 hoist assembly on the truck chassis. The truck chassis mounting surface
should be flat without any steps or protrusions. If necessary shim bars need to be added to
ensure a flat surface on which to support hoist.
The clear frame dimension indicated in Fig. A allows for the overall length of the hoist plus 5
inches for cab clearance and rear light bar mounting. Extra frame length may be needed to
allow for mounting additional accessories (e.g. Cab Guard, Tarper, Light Kit, Stabilizer, etc.).
For example, when mounting a light kit on a truck with a long CA, check that the hoist and
the light kit are positioned far enough back to eliminate any interference between the fender
and the light kit. You should also consider the final weight distribution with regard to the
bridge code when positioning the hoist.
NOTE:
THE ABOVE SPECIFICATIONS ARE A MINIMUM REQUIREMENT. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE OWNER/
OPERATOR TO ENSURE THE COMPLETED CHASSIS MEETS OR EXCEEDS ALL FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL
REGULATIONS. ALSO, THE HOIST SHOULD NOT BE USED TO LIFT AND HAUL ANY LOAD THAT EXCEEDS THE LOAD
RATING OF ANY OF THE INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS OF THE COMPLETED CHASSIS (TIRES, AXLES, SUSPENSION,
ETC.)
2. There are three types of mount brackets used on the Model SL-212 hoist as indicated in Fig.
B and Pg. 5-7 . They are the front brackets ( Pt. No. 25H91 ), the mid brackets ( Pt. No.
25H89 ) and the rear brackets ( Pt. No. 25H90 ). Locate the mount brackets on the side of the
hoist as indicated in Fig. B . These dimensions are flexible because of possible interference
