Our winches ARE NOT typically directly mounted to a wall, and ARE typically mounted in an upright position; but they can be mounted in other orientations as long as the following guidelines are adhered to:
READ AND UNDERSTAND YOUR WINCH MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING YOUR WINCH.
SPECIFIC INSTALLATION GUIDELINES CAN BE FOUND IN YOUR WINCH MANUAL.
In general, Keeper winches may be mounted in either a horizontal or vertical position, on a wall or other suitable support. In all installations, the unit must be mounted so that the wire rope feeds perpendicular to the drum axis and does not rub across the housing or base. Mount the Winch to the mounting kit base plate or to the mount that you have designed. Mount must be a flat surface capable of handling winch loads.
NEVER USE YOUR WINCH FOR OVERHEAD LIFTING OR HOISTING APPLICATIONS OR MOVING PEOPLE
Do not machine or weld any part of the winch. Such alterations may weaken the structural integrity of the winch and will void your warranty.
Improper mounting could damage your winch and void your warranty.
