6 Mounting your winch
Your winch is designed to be mounted temporarily, using the trailer hitch mounting bracket. However,
you may also mount your winch permanently.
6.1 Permanent mounting
1. Select a mounting side on the bumper of your vehicle, truck bed, boat trailer or other suitable location.
Note: This winch generates a high pulling force. Be sure the location you select can withstand this force. You may need to
use steel reinforcement plates, or weld on additional bracing, depending on the desired mounting location.
2. Align the winch with the desired location, and mark for drilling the locations of the 4 holes on the base of the winch.
3. Drill these locations on your vehicle.
4. Using hardened steel bolts at least 3/8’’ in diameter, install your winch to the location.
6.2 Temporary mounting
1. Attach the plat stud bolts to the adapter plate, using the supplied nuts. Tighten securely.
2. Insert the heads of the plate studs into the keyhole slots on the back of the winch.
3. Attach the winch/adapter plate assembly to your trailer hitch, by inserting the trailer hitch ball through the shaped hole in
the adapter plate.
