in the hole below the the pulley slot. Replace
the hitch pin.
Get you cable. Unwrap the cable and lay it
out. Attach the eyebolt with nuts into the
hole on the angle which is attached to your
hub. Remove only the lock nut from the
eyebolt, slip the eyebolt into the hole, and
replace the lock nut and tighten. Use a 9/16”
wrench on the lock nut and use another open
end wrench to hold the eyebolt in place.
Tighten the lock nut all the way to the angle.
Run your cable up the pole to where the 3
inch pulley is. Place the stop nut end of the
cable thru the top of the pulley and milled
slot. If the cable is a tight fit, you can
remove the pulley by removing the bolt and
nut and then place the cable, then the pulley
and replace the bolt. Once the cable is in
place be sure to tighten the bolt and nut that
hold the pulley in place. Make sure the lock
nut is tightened all the way to the pole.
You may want to flip the pole over because
we want to run the cable inside the hub,
between the hub and the pole. The cable
must go thru the center and be in between
any glide buttons found on your hub. It may
take a few tries till the cable comes out
where needed. Once the cable is thru the
hub pull on the cable and remove the slack.
We are going to continue to work on this side
of the pole, only we are going to place our
attention at the bottom half. First we want to
remove the rope winder. Use your 7/16”
wrench to loosen the bolt and nut. You wont
be using the rope winder any more, it is
aluminum and can be recycled or you can
keep it for another project.
It is time to install the 2 inch pulley guide on
to the pole. The pulley guide is assembled.
Notice that one of the bolts behind the pulley
is low and one is high. You want to place the
pulley guide on the pole so that the lower
bolt is butted against the pole. Remove the
nut from the higher bolt, pull the pulley
guide open and slip the entire pulley guide
over the pole. Insert the bolt and nut and
tighten. Make sure the pulley guide is level
using a square.
The cable will then slip behind the pulley and
in front of the bolt that butts up against the
pole.
Winch brackets and winch. When assembling
the winch brackets to the winch and onto the
pole, you will want the winch bracket with
the one single bolt to face towards the
ground, as well as the other winch bracket,
with 2 bolts should also face the ground.
It is much easier to attach the winch brackets
first to the winch then the entire assembly on
to the pole. The small bolts on the brackets
will align with the holes found on the D&L
brake winch. If using another brand name
brake winch, you may need to drill the winch
to match the bracket.
