Final Assembly Instructions
Remove the small parts from the frame by cutting the banding. Re-
move the bolt bag and sort all the nuts and bolts by size.
Tongue:
Install the tongue through the center of the frame. Unwind the
tongue harness. Thread the harness through the 13/16” diameter
hole on the coupler end of the tongue. Pull the harness out of the
tongue through the 13/16” diameter hole on the left side at the rear
of the tongue. Insert the rubber grommets in the 13/16” diameter
hole on the left side at the rear of the tongue and around the wire
harness in the front of the tongue. Fasten the rear of the tongue to
the back of the frame and the front of the tongue is secured to the
tongue channel with 3/8” X 4” carriage bolt. Secure with 3/8” flat
washers and 3/8” flange lock nuts. Tighten both bolts but do not
over tighten.
Plug in the tongue harness to the frame wiring. Wiring is com-
plete.
Safety Chain:
Insert a 3/8” X 1-1/4” hex bolt with a 3/8” flat washer and safety
chain through the lower hole on the front of the tongue. Secure with
a 3/8” flange lock nut. Repeat this procedure on the opposite side
of the tongue.
Coupler:
Mount the coupler onto the tongue with one (1) 1/2” X 4” hex bolt
and two (2) 1/2” X 1” hex bolts. Secure with 1/2” flange lock nuts.
Winch:
The winch post assembly is pre-assembled and is shipped banded
to the frame. Place the winch post on the tongue in the approximate
location. Attach to the tongue using three (3) 3/8” X 4” hex bolts and
3/8” flange lock nuts. It can be left loose until the boat is placed on
the trailer for final adjustment.
Place the winch handle on the drive shaft of the winch by mating
the flat sides of the drive shaft with the punched hole in the winch
handle. Secure the handle to the drive shaft with the 1/2” lock nuts
provided. Tighten.
Bunk:
Position two (2) long 2X4 bunks on the frame. Fasten in a desired
location that best fits your watercraft using 3/8” carrigae bolts, 3/8”
lock washer and 3/8” hex nuts. Refer to parts drawing for place-
ment. NOTE: Bunk brackets with the embossed side faces the to
the frame.
