Installations:
INSTALLATION (Polaris Winch Mount)
Note: The Polaris winch mount already has mounting holes underneath the fairlead rollers and does not need the adapter bracket.
1. If using the Polaris winch mount, loosen the bolts securing the mount to the vehicle so the winch mount is loosely attached. Remove the lower skid pan bolts. These will not be used in this kit.
2. Place the plow mount under the vehicle such that the tabs fit around the frame cross bar that the lower skid pan bolts thread into. Secure with two M8x20mm capscrews supplied and a 13mm socket .Do not tighten these.
Note: It may be necessary to line one side up first, applying inward pressure on the skid plate mounting tabs to fit in between the plow mount tabs and around the cross tubing
3. Secure the plow mount to the winch mount. Use a 16mm socket with two M10x25mm bolts with 3/16" flat washers . Do not tighten all the way.
Note: It may be necessary to rotate the winch mount upward for the mounting holes to line up with the plow mount holes. Make sure the lower M8x20mm bolts are not tight, as it will make this step difficult.
4. Tighten the two lower M8x20mm bolts to 20 N-m (15 ft-lbs). Tighten the two plow mount to winch mount M10x25mm bolts to 25 N-m (18.5 ft-lbs). Tighten the four winch mount to frame bolts to 20 Nm (15 ft-lbs).
5. Finally install the plow mounting tab to your Plow Tube Assembly. Install these loosely on the plow with the fasteners provided with the plow. Tighten
the fasteners after the plow is assembled and installed in the mount according to the plow assembly instructions.
INSTALLATION (WARN Winch Mount)
1. Remove the front skid plate . Use a 13mm socket to remove the four bolts securing the front skid pan to the front bumper.
2. Remove the WARN winch mount. Use a 13mm socket and a 13 mm wrench to loosen the four bolts/ nuts that secure the WARN winch mount to the frame
3. Remove the hook by pulling the cotter pin from the clevis pin. Remove the fairlead from the WARN winch mount. Use a 16mm socket with a 17mm wrench to loosen the two M10x1.5x20mm bolts that secure the fairlead to the winch mount. These bolts will be replaced by longer fasteners provided in this kit.
4. Place two M10x1.5x25mm bolts through the back of the face of the WARN winch mount . Then place the WARN winch mount adapter bracket on the face of the winch mount feeding the bolts through themounting holes on the bracket.
5. Place the fairlead over the adapter bracket, feeding the bolts through the mounting holes on the fairlead. Tighten two lock washers with two M10 nuts using a 16mm socket and 17mm wrench. Install the hook by placing the clevis pin through the hook and securing with cotter pin.
6. Place the WARN winch mount back on the vehicle mounting tabs and secure with bolts taken off in step 2. Do not tighten bolts all the way. The winch mount needs to move slightly to install the plow mount.
7. Secure the front skid plate to the frame using only the upper bolts, the lower bolts will not be used in this kit. The front of the winch mount may have to be rotated upward to get the skid plate holes to line up with the frame.
8. Loosen the bolts securing the mount to the vehicle so the winch mount is loosely attached. Remove the lower skid pan bolts. These will not be used in this kit.
9. Place the plow mount under the vehicle such that the tabs fit around the frame cross bar that the lower skid pan bolts thread into. Secure with two M8x20mm capscrews supplied and a 13mm socket. Do not tighten these.
Note: It may be necessary to line one side up first, applying inward pressure on the skid plate mounting tabs to fit in between the plow mount tabs and around the cross tubing.
10. Secure the plow mount to the winch mount. Use a 16mm socket with two M10x25mm bolts with 3/16" flat washers . Do not tighten all the way.
Note: It may be necessary to rotate the winch mount upward for the mounting holes to line up with the plow mount holes. Make sure the lower M8x20mm bolts are not tight, as it will make this step difficult.
11. Tighten the two lower M8x20mm bolts to 20 N-m (15 ft-lbs). Tighten the two plow mount to winch mount M10x25mm bolts to 25 N-m (18.5 ft-lbs). Tighten the four winch mount to frame bolts to 20 Nm (15 ft-lbs).
