Note: For certain mounting applications, where
the solenoid needs to be mounted at the rear of
the vehicle, switch the battery and motor leads.
This will allow the longer leads to reach the
winch at the front of the vehicle.
Solenoid Mounting: Choose a mounting location
that will remain protected and dry. Solenoid
should be mounted on a flat surface.
Installing the Solenoid
1. Use Solenoid Assembly as a guide to mark
and drill (2) 7/32” holes in location deter-
mined for solenoid.
2. Use (2) 3/4” long #10 capscrews (item
#14-3), (2) #10 flat washers (item #14-8),
and (2) #10 locknuts (item #14-5) to mount
solenoid. Tighten to 60 in-lbs (7 Nm) torque.
Installing the Rocker Switch
For clarification, see wiring schematic on page 9.
1. Position Tube Clamp (item #14-12) on handle
bars in convenient location.
2. Mount Rocker Switch housing to Tube Clamp
using #10 capscrew, locknut, flat washer,
and shake-proof washer (items #14-3, #14-
5, #14-8, and #14-9). Tighten securely.
