Mounting your winch
1. The winch is to be mounted into a suitable steel mounting frame using the 4 point
foot mounting system in either a horizontal or vertical plane.
It’s very important that the winch be mounted on a flat surface so that the three
sections (motor, cable drum and gear housing) are properly aligned.
--The fitment of winches and / or a frontal protection system may affect the triggering of
SRS air bags. Check that the mounting system has been tested and approved for
winch fitment in the airbag equipped vehicle.
2. Winch mounting frames and / or frontal protection systems are suggested to suit
most popular vehicles. Winch frames are packaged with detailed fitting instructions.
3. Should you wish to manufacture your own mounting plate the dimensions below will
assist. A steel mount plate 6mm thick is recommended. Fasteners should be steel high
tensile grade 5 or better. A poorly designed mount may void warranty.
4. The winch should be secured to the mounting with 3/8” UNC x 1-1/4” stainless steel
bolts and spring washers provided.
5. The roller fairlead is to be mounted so as to guide the rope onto the drum evenly.
