Winch Failure Hazard
Failure to observe these instructions could lead to minor or moderate injury.
Always choose a mounting location that is sufficiently strong to withstand the loads you
intend to winch
The 4000 can be mounted to a fixed
location by utilizing the mounting hole
pattern for the winch unit. First, choose
a mounting location that is sufficiently
strong enough to withstand the loads
you intend to winch.
Next, drill three hole to the dimensions
specified in the drawing below.
To secure the winch, always use:
▫ A flat, secure mounting location at
least 3/16in. (4.8 mm) thick steel.
▫ 3/8 in. flat washer x 3.
▫ 3/8 in. lockwasher x 3.
▫ 3/8-16 x 1in. long, hex head
capscrew, Grade 5 or better x 3.
▫ Torque mounting bolts to 30-35 ft-
lbs (41-47 Nm).
Bolt length may need to be longer that
specified above depending upon the
thickness of the material the winch is
mounted to.
