ASSEMBLY
Assembling the Winch
This CPE 2200 lb. (998 kg) winch is designed
with a bolt pattern that is standard in this class
of winch. Many winch mounting kits are available
that utilize this bolt pattern for the most popular
UTVs and ATVs. If you cannot find a kit locally,
contact CPE and we will provide you with the
name of a dealer.
The type of vehicle to which the winch and
mounting channel will be applied, will dictate
the type of mounting kit that should be used
(Speed Mount™ Hitch Adapter, Standard
Mounting Channel, or Specialty Mounting Kit).
NOTE
If utilizing a mounting plate, ensure that
the three major sections (motor, drum and
gear housing) are properly aligned. Proper
alignment of the winch will allow for even
distribution of the full rated load.
CAUTION
Mounting bolts must be SAE grade 5 or better
and torque to 34 ft. lbs.
