Installation Instructions
STEP 1
Determine the position of the winch and motor unit
1.1 Magnetic elds in the motor may aect compasses even
when the motor is not in use. Install the motor at least
1m (3ft) away from any compass, and always have your
compass recalibrated after installation.
1.2 The winch should be positioned with the recommended
line entry angle of 3-8° from horizontal.
1.3 Refer to the Winch Data Sheet for your winch model for
clearance/space requirements for the motor unit below deck.
You may choose to drill a small pilot hole to indicate the
position of the centre of the drive shaft, to assist with this.
1.4 Note the location of the drain port in the base of the motor.
If the mounting surface is not horizontal due to deck camber
or other factors, plan the installation such that the drain port
is situated at the lowest point in relation to the slope of the
mounting surface. The drain tube [A12] will be attached to
this port to allow any moisture from condensation to escape
and drain to the bilge.
Recommended line entry angle
3-8 degrees
