ing frame and reattach using (8) mount-
ing bolts and lockwashers. Torque
mounting hardware to 290 ft. lbs. each.
Make sure that gear housing and clutch
housing are not rubbing against drum
flanges.

2. Place air shifter assembly #5 over

shifter shaft aligning clevis over flats of
shaft. Secure clevis to shaft using clevis

retainer plate are not making contact.
Locking ring and retainer plate must not
make contact. There must be a clear-
ance (gap) of .09 inch (max.) between

the winch is fully disengaged. If there is
contact, the (4) capscrews #46 should
be loosened and the plate pulled away
from the drum approximately .06 inch.
