Frame:
Trailer Adjustments:
The SL60T frame is assembled by the manufacturer. Please review all assembly parts drawings throughout this service manual. This parts breakdown is reference to various components that make up this trailer.
Tongue:
Slip the tongue into the front frame cap of the frame. Line up the holes, fasten the tongue in the frame with two (2) 1/ 2” X 3-9/16” X 5” square u-bolts, 1/2” beveled aluminum washers, 1/2” stainless steel washers and 1/2” hex lock nut with nylon inserts at the front of the tongue plates; fasten the tongue in the rear with a 1/2” X 4-1/2” hex bolt and 1/2” flat washer under the nut and bolt. Connect the tongue brakline to the sideframe with a brakeline coupling (Ref.#29).
Wiring:
Plug in the tongue wire harness to the side frame wire harnesses located on the first crossmember. The white ground wire must be grounded to the trailer frame with a 3/4” self grounding tap screw.
Place the boat onto the trailer so that is resting on the bunks. This trailer is more flexible in its adjustment from front to back but the boat should be positioned so that the transom is being supported by the bunk. Once the boat is positioned as above make the following adjustments.
Bunk:
Position the bunks in the back of the trailer so that they are located between the keels or strakes and so that they won’t interfere when loading and unloading. Once positioned, tighten the u-bolts in the mounting brackets.
Position the front bunks in the desired area and adjust for proper pressure of the bunks to the boat hull. CAUTION: Do not over adjust the front bunks - the conform to they must boat’s hull.
Winch Post:
Once the boat is positioned on the trailer, adjust the winch post to the boat. Loosen the u-bolts and move the winch assembly so that the top rubber bow roller is just above the bow eye. Tighten.
NOTE: Double-check all fasteners - they must be tightened before towing.
