Equipment Operation
On bunk style trailers, watch the bunks to make sure the
boat is centered as they usually do not touch any rollers
other than the aft one because the boat weight is being
supported more by the bunks as it is cranked onto the
trailer.
Stop cranking the winch when the boat bow contacts
the bow roller. Be sure the winch is in the locked position.
Stand back and make sure the boat is centered on the
trailer.
After pulling your boat away from the ramp, be sure to go
through all the checks involved before departure. Reinstall
the harness connector and check the lights, brakes, safety
chain, winch, hitch, wheel bearing and tie downs. Make
sure the boat is covered properly and all loose gear is
stowed.
Remove the hull drain plug to exit any excess water in
the bilge. Make sure you reinstall the hull drain plug and
securely tighten it.
!
AVOID BODILY INJURY !
DO NOT LET ANYONE STAND NEAR THE
WINCH OR CABLE AS IT COULD SNAP
!
HULL BOTTOM DAMAGE COULD RESULT
FROM THE BOAT RESTING ON THE
TRAILER FRAME. AVOID BACKING THE
TRAILER TOO FAR BACK IN THE WATER.
