TONGUE ASSEMBLY
Place the frame to be assembled on saw horses or stands to assist
in the assembly. Remove all items that are banded to the frame.
Sort the items in the hardware box by item and the hardware by
size.
Locate the tongue for the trailer. Note that there are three different
lengths of tongues designed to fit this particular frame. The length
of tongue will determine the length of boat that can be placed on
the trailer when assembled. The 7’ tongue will accommodate boats
12-14 feet in length, the 8’-6” tongue will fit boats 14’ - 16’ 6” in
length and the 10’ tongue is used for boats 15’ 6”- 18’ long.
See Diagram B
Once the proper tongue is identified place it on the stands so it can
be prepared for installation into the frame. Locate the two amber
side marker lights shipped in the hardware box. Uncoil the wire and
insert the plug end into the larger, center hole that is drilled in the
side of the tongue. As the wire is inserted into the hole direct the
wire so that it will go to the forward end of the tongue. Pull the wire
out the front of the tongue. It will be connected to the tongue harness at a later time. Attach the light to the tongue using two (2) No.
10 x 3/4” self-tapping screws provided. Repeat this process on the
other light on the other side of the tongue.
Locate the tongue wire harness. Insert the end of the harness with
the small plug into the hole located in the top of the tongue. Pull
the wire backward through the tongue until the end comes out the
rear of the tongue. As the wire harness is inserted note that there
are two single bullet wires towards the front plug of the tongue wire
harness. Pull these wires forward as the wire harness is inserted
into the tongue. Plug the single wires from the side marker lights
installed earlier into the two single bullets of the tongue harness.
Push the additional back into the front of the tongue to keep it from
damage during use. Place a rubber grommet around the wire harness and in the hole in the top of the tongue to protect the wires
from damage during use.
Route the harness plug at the rear of the tongue through the hole
provided in the side of the tongue. Pull both the plug and the white
ground wire out the hole. They will be attached later once the
tongue is installed in the frame.
Locate the bolt on tongue stand Item No. 4 in Diagram B. Look at
the bottom side of the tongue and locate the slotted key slot hole
in the tongue. Note that one end of the tongue stand has a dart or
arrow shaped end. With the tongue stand positioned 90 degrees
to the center line of the tongue, insert the dart or arrow end of the
tongue stand into the key slotted hole. Once it is inserted, turn the
tongue stand 90 degrees so that it now is in line with the center line
of the tongue. Attach the front end of the tongue stand to the tongue
using a 1/2” x1” hex bolt and flange lock nut. Tighten.
Locate the safety chains. Place a 3/8” flat washer on a 3/8” x 1-1/4”
hex bolt. Insert the bolt through the last link in the safety chain and
then into the lower hole provided in the front of the tongue. Secure
with a 3/8” flange lock nut. Tighten. Repeat on the other chain.
Place the coupler on the top of the tongue. Align the holes in the
coupler with the holes in the tongue. Place a 1/2” x 4” hex bolt
through the back holes of the coupler and the tongue. Secure with
a 1/2” flange lock nut but do not tighten at this point.
Place a 1/2” x 1” hex bolt through the front hole on one side of the
