Rotating the Motor on your ATV
Winch
The ATV winch has the motor studs and leads
positioned on the end of the motor aligned verti-
cally. If you need to rotate the motor on your ATV
winch to gain clearance, you can rotate the motor
90°. The motor studs will then be aligned horizon-
tally.
Before you begin:
Note: If you have installed the optional Brake kit
(P/N 256116) for the ATV winch, make sure you
have the Brake kit installation instructions before
proceeding. You will need to re-install the Brake
kit after you rotate the motor (step 6 on the fol-
lowing pages). Contact Ramsey if you do not
have your installation instructions.
