ASSEMBLY & MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
DIRECT MOUNT
1. Detach the bar and chain from the chain saw, leave the bar-mounting nuts.
2. Detach the spring-clip from the output shaft of the chainsaw
3. Detach the large washer from the output shaft of the chainsaw. If the chainsaw has a
rim-sprocket, this must also be removed.
4. Re-attach the spring-clip, but do not re-attach the large washer.
5. Detach the washer from the input shaft of the Powerhouse Chainsaw Winch. Failure to
do so when using the “direct mount” method could result in gear damage. Locate the
appropriate adaptor for the chain saw. Bolt and screw the 1/2” thick master-disk to the
corresponding 3/8” disk for your chain saw using the supplied 3 screws.
TIP : To make sure the screws stay tight, we recommend using “Loctite”. Slip the
assembled adaptor onto the input shaft of the Powerhouse Chainsaw Winch.
Make sure that the studs of the chainsaw and the slot in the winch are aligned.
This is to make sure that the adaptor is fully engaged and set straight with the
output shaft of the chainsaw. The Direct Drive Adaptor must have a back-and-
forth oat of about 3/8”.
TIP : Make sure that the bar-adjustment stud on the chainsaw ts snugly into the
lower slot of the Powerhouse Chainsaw Winch. To adjust the position, turn the
bar-adjustment screw of the chainsaw until aligned.
6. Re-attach the bar-mounting nuts on the bar studs of the chainsaw, then tighten the nuts.
(use Loctite)
TIP : We recommend emptying the chain-oiler tank of the chainsaw if you will
use the Direct Mount Method.
