What is an ATV winch and how does it work?
Winches are used to pull heavy objects, which makes them a great solution for pulling ATVs out of any mess. Before installing an ATV winch, you have to install a mounting plate first. Most ATVs do not come designed with a spot to hold a winch, so you need to make some modification.
What is a winch mounting plate?
A winch mounting plate attaches your winch to the mounting bracket and to the front bumper of your ATV. They are designed to withstand the tension of pulling your ATVs out. You will need to have a specific winch mount that holds the winch without any hassles. Most winches include a winch mount that may or may not fit all vehicles.
How do you hook up a winch to an ATV solenoid?
Ensure you place the Solenoid box in a spot that remains dry and out of the general reach of moving parts of the ATV. Hook up the other set of wires from the Handle-bar switch to the Solenoid box so you can use the winch even if your ATV is switched off.
