(See Detail A) Secure the tongue cover plate in position with a 1/2” X 1-1/2” hex bolt and 1/2” lock nut. Tighten. Plug the tongue wire harness ends into the frame harnesses by matching colors and ends. Push the extra wire into the rear of the tongue or remove the grom­mets in the side frame and place the extra wire in the side frame. Replace grommets just removed.
SAFETY CHAINS Mount the safety chains to the front of the tongue by placing a 3/8”
at washer onto a 3/8” X 1-1/4” hex bolt, then insert the bolt through the last link of the safety chain. Add another 3/8” at washer. Put
the bolt through the hole on one side of the tongue as shown.
Secure on inside of tongue with a 3/8” hex ange nut. Tighten.
Repeat on the other chain on the other side of the tongue.
WINCH POST Place the winch assembly on the tongue and secure with three 3/8” X 4” hex bolts and hex flange lock nuts. Place the 3/8”
ange lock nuts on the bolts but do not tighten because they
will have to be readjusted once the boat is on the trailer.
Remove the winch handle nut from the shaft. Align the hole in the
winch handle with the at surfaces on the shaft. Slide in position and
secure with the nut just removed. Tighten.
JACK
It is recommended that the jack be mounted on the right side of the tongue. This will place it on the opposite side of the winch handle to eliminate the possibility of the two interfering when being oper­ated.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Remove all items from the frame. Locate the hardware bag and sort all items by size.
SWING TONGUE The tongue comes shipped incorrectly in the frame. Slide the tongue out from it’s shipping position and reinstall in the front tongue channel. Line the holes in the tongue with the holes in the tongue channel. Secure with a 1/2” X 4” hex bolt and 1/2” lock nut in the tongue channel.
Locate the coupler bag. Place the coupler on the end of the tongue, align holes and secure with one 1/2” X 4” hex bolts and
hex ange lock nuts in the rear coupler hole. Place two 1/2” X
1” hex bolts into the front holes of the coupler and secure to the inside of the tongue with 1/2” ange lock nuts. Tighten.
WIRE HARNESS
Locate the wire harness. Push the two triangular plugs in the hole on the top of the tongue, then out the rear of the tongue. Place the wire harness through the hole in the tongue cover plate.
Remove the hardware bag from the jack and sort all items by size.
Note that the jack mounting plate has only one pair of holes on one side of the plate while the other side has holes punched to accom­modate either 3”, 4”, or 5” tongue.
Place a 3/8” x 4” hex bolt into the single hole of the mounting plate so the head of the bolt is on the jack side of the plate.
Once inserted, place one of the mounting channels onto the bolt so the legs of the mounting channel are pointing away from the jack. Place on a 3/8” lock washer and hex nut. Thread on only far enough to secure in place.
Repeat the above process on the other single hole of the mounting plate.
Place the jack on the tongue so that the two bolts just installed are on the top side of the tongue with the jack on the right side of the tongue and the mounting channels on the other side of the tongue.
Visually check which of the bottom three holes in the plate will align just under the bottom side of the tongue. Insert the remaining two 3/8” x 4” hex bolts into these holes and then through the mating holes in the mounting channel. Secure with 3/8” lock washers and hex nuts.
Rotate the jack into the up position. Slide the jack forward or back­ward on the tongue to make sure it will not hit the frame of the trailer when in the up position.
Tighten all of the mounting bolts to secure the jack assembly to the tongue.
Always rotate the jack in the up position before towing the trailer.

SPRINGS
Positions the axle so that it is aligned with the trailer.
Place the springs on the top side of the spring pads welded to the axle. The hook end of the spring must be mounted to the rear of the trailer. Place a spring clamp on the top center of the spring. Place the 1/2” X 6-1/2” U-bolts over the top of the spring clamp, spring and axle. Place the spring and axle U-bolt plate onto the ends of the two U-bolts. Secure in place with 1/2” lock nuts. Tighten.
AXLE Place a spring bracket bushing (Ref.#9, Detail E) into the rear of the spring bracket and secure with a 9/16” x 3-1/4” hex bolt and hex lock nut. Repeat in the other spring bracket. Position the axle under the frame, hook the hook loop of the spring around the bushings just installed. Note: If the axle is positioned too low, the hooks will not hook around the bushings.
Raise the front of the springs up so they align with the front hole of the spring bracket. Secure in place with 9/16” X 3-1/4” hex bolts and lock nuts. Tighten all axle U-bolts and spring bolts.
TIRE & WHEEL ASSEMBLY Mount the tire and wheel assemblies using the 1/2” ne threaded ta­pered lug nuts provided. Tighten to 85-95 ft./lb. of torque using the ro­tation pattern as shown in the ShoreLandr’s Owners Manual.
Re-to rqu e the lug nuts aft er 50 miles of drivin g and then periodically thereafter.

BUNK
The bunk assemblies are completely assembled at the fac­tory and are ready to be installed on your trailer. Note that the bunk brackets installed in the bunk system are mounted differently on each end. The one end has the bunk bracket secured in position by a dart in the aluminum extrusion and two 3/8” x 3-1/2” hex bolt while on the other end the bunk bracket is allowed to move up and down the extrusion.
It is recommended that the end of the bunk assembly with the bunk bracket (Ref.#7, page 2) secured be placed on the end of the trailer where the transom of the boat will be lo­cated when it is on the trailer.
Attach the bunk assembly to the adjustable bunk bracket using the 3/8” x 1” hex bolt provided. Secure in place with a
3/8” ange lock nut.
Align the other end of the bunk assembly over the adjustable bunk bracket (Ref.#9, page 2) on the crossemember. Move the bracket until it is positioned next to the adjustable bunk bracket. Attach this bunk bracket to the adjustable bunk bracket using another 3/8” x 1” hex bolt and secure in place
with a 3/8” ange lock nut.
LOADGUIDE
Place loadguide assemebly on the side frame in a location
that best ts your watercraft.
Secure with 3/8” X 4” carriage bolts, special washers and
3/8” ange lock nuts.
Refer to page 2 for placement.
Once both ends of the new bunk assembly are secured to the adjustable bunk brackets, tighten the bolts just installed but do not over tighten. The bunk assemblies must be al­lowed to rotate so they will conform to the boat bottom.
Repeat this process on the other bunk assembly.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4810709
Proper tongue weight must be maintained.
Rev C 8/28/06
Before towing, check the following to ensure that:
1. All parts, bolts, nuts and wheel lug nuts are tight.
2. All wheel lug nuts must be tightened to a minimum torque rating of 85 ft/lb.
3. Lug nuts must be re-torqued after the first 50 miles, then periodically there after.
4. Tires are inflated to manufacturer’s standards. (See tire sidewall)
5. Wheel bearings have adequate grease.
6. Hitch ball is the proper diameter and has a rating equal to or greater than the GVWR of the trailer.
7. Coupler is properly attached and secured to coupler ball.
8. Trailer safety chains are crossed under the tongue and attached to towing vehicle.
9. All lights are operational. Note: It is recommended that the trailer lights be disconnected before backing into the water.
10. Tie downs, winch strap and bow­ eye safety chain are secure.
11. Trailer tongue jack is in up or travel position.
TRAILER ADJUSTMENTS
Axle Adjustment
The amount of tongue weight on your trailer can be adjusted as follows: To lower the tongue weight, adjust the axle assembly forward. To increase the tongue weight, adjust the axle assembly backward. The distance that the axle assembly has to be moved will vary because it is directly related to the weight and center of gravity of the boat placed on it. Best towing is achieved when the tongue weight is 5-7% of the total gross load of the complete unit.
NOTE: The wire harness will need care when moving the assembly.
Rear Support System
Place the boat on the trailer so that the transom is located at the end of the bun k. Th e center of the rea r rollers on th e rol ler rack should be app roxi mate ly 4” from the tra n­som. This gives you maximum support on the transom.
The bunks must be positioned far enough apart to give your boat as much stability as possible while transporting. Position the bunks so they are located just to the outside of the boat’s strake. This will help center your boat and assist when loading.
FRONT SUPPORT SYSTEM Bunk
The front bunks should be adjusted either in or out so that the bunk will continue to run just to the outside of the strake of the boat. Adjust the bunks up so that there is approximately 1” clearance between the keel of the boat and the center cross member pad.
Winch Post Adjustment
Slide the winch post assembly back towards the boat. The bow stop roller needs to be located directly above the boat bow eye to prevent your boat from moving froward in the event of a sudden stop.
Not e t hat t h e ou t e r wi n c h ba s e has s e ver a l hol e s of adjustment. Changing the bolt location will change the angle of the winch post and will raise or lower the height of the bow roller. Choose the bolt location which best matches it to the bow eye height.
Th e in n er and oute r wi n ch post cha n n els can tel e s cope eithe r in or out wit h respect to each other to lengthen or shorten the overall length of the post. Loosen the two bolts located on the back, inside of the channels. Attach the winch strap int o the bow eye and cra nk th e winch stra p in unt il the bow eye is located in it’s proper position just above the bow eye. Slide the inner post in or out to a desired length.
Once the bow stop roller is located in it’s proper position above the bow eye, tighten the bolts that secure the assembly to the tongue.
Attach the bow eye safety chain into the bow eye as well. This is anot her level of protection to keep your trailer and bo a t to gethe r as on e unit. It may be us e d to keep your boat on the trailer while loading and unloading at the ramp, especially with a roller trailer.
Adjustments are now complete. Double check your boat for t. If desired t has been achieved, tighten all fasten­ers th at may hav e either been left loose or have been loosened to do the adjusting.
