Diagram C TONGUE
The tongue is shipped separate of the frame. Locate the appropri-
ate tongue and install by sliding it in the front of the tongue channel.
Line the holes in the tongue with the holes in the tongue channel.
Install the 1/2” x 4” hex bolt in the front cross hole and secure with
a 1/2” lock nut.
Remove the wire harness from the rear of the tongue. Place the
wire harness and the brake line through the hole provided in the
tongue cover plate. See Detail A in Diagram A.
Secure the tongue cover plate in position with the same 1/2” x 1-
1/2” hex bolt that secures the back on the tongue to the tongue
channel of the frame. Secure with 1/2” lock nut. Tighten both bolts
just installed.
Plug the tongue wire harness ends into the frame harnesses by
matching colors and ends. Push the extra wire provided either into
the rear of the tongue or else remove the grommet in the side frame
and place the extra wire in the side frame. Replace grommet just
removed.
SAFETY CHAINS
Locate the 1/2” x 1-1/4” hex bolt. Slip the bolt through a 1/2” flat
washer, then place through the last link of one of the safety chains.
Place a second flat washer on the bolt and insert through the hole
as shown in Diagram B. Secure with a 1/2” .flange lock nut. Tighten.
Repeat this process on the second safety chain on the opposite
side of the tongue. Assembly is complete.
BRAKE LINE
Locate the brass brake line coupling. Remove the plastic cap and
thread the brake line coming out the rear of the tongue into one
end of the coupling. Bend the line in a smooth gradual radius being
careful not to kink the line. Bend so it can be mated to the brake
line from the side frame. Once aligned, thread the side frame brake
line into the other end of the coupling. Tighten both lines into the
coupling.
WINCH POST ASSEMBLY
The height that the bow eye is placed in your boat will determine
the length winch post required. Once this is determined, attach the
winch base to the tongue with three 1/2” x 4-1/2” carriage bolts and
lock nuts.
Align the holes in the Profile 2000 mounting channel with the holes
in the top of the winch base. Attach the front of the winch head
mounting channel to the base by placing a 1/2” x 4-1/2” hex bolt
through the hole closest to the front of the winch base. Secure with
a lock nut. Do not tighten.
Note that the winch head can now be rotated either up or down.
Identify the correct hole combination to use to position the bow eye
roller just above the bow eye of your boat. When determined, se-
cure in this position by placing the bushing as shown in Diagram C
inside the winch base so it aligns with the hole just identified for the
proper adjustment. Insert another 1/2” x 4-1/2” hex bolt through the
determined mounting hole in the mounting channel and winch base
making sure the bolt passes through the bushing as well. Secure
with a 1/2” lock nut.
Tighten all bolts.
