Assembling Your Winch

To assemble the QM-8000 winch to the quick mount channel,
attach the handles to both ends of the quick mount channel
using (2) black 3/8” button head screws for each handle.
Tighten to 20 ft-lbs. torque.

Once the handles are attached, lift the winch into the quick
mount channel. Feed the looped end of the pre-wrapped cable
through the fairlead.

Place a 3/8” nut and flatwasher in each of the feet. Align the
four mounting holes in the quick mount channel with the feet of
the winch. Place a lockwasher on each 3/8” hex head screw
and then press a screw through each mounting hole and start
it through a nut. Do not tighten until all of the screws have been
started. Tighten to 34 ft-lbs. torque.

Align the base of the clevis hook with the loop on the end of the
cable. Run the pin through the clevis hook and the loop. Push
the cotter pin through the hole in the pin and bend the cotter pin
to lock.
