BUNKS
Note that the bunk system is adjustable for width to fit most center dimensions of the pontoon tubes.
Determine the centers of the bunk support system that fits the pontoon tubes for the pontoon that is
going to be placed on the trailer and position accordingly.
Position the carpeted bunks so approximately 10” extends past the back of the rear bunk saddle
support. Attach the bunks to the brackets using the 1/4” x 1 1/2” lag screws provided.
Repeat this process on the bunks on the other side of the bunk saddle support and then on the other
side of the trailer.
ADJUSTING INSTRUCTIONS
Place the pontoon on the trailer so that the pontoon tubes are flush with the ends of the bunks. This will
give you maximum support. The bunk spacing has already been determined and set for width when the
trailer was assembled.
WINCH POST
With the pontoon in its proper position, slide the winch post assembly backward until it contacts the
deck. The bow stop allows for the variance in most deck heights. It is adjustable up or down
approximately if required. This is accomplished by loosening and removing the two carriage bolts that
attach winch holder and bow stop assembly to the base.
Once the winch post is contacting the deck, tighten in position. Hook the winch strap into the bow eye
and tighten by cranking the winch.
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 law requires that the white ground wire on both the tongue wire harness and vehicle harness
be properly grounded to respective trailer and vehicle frames.
Recheck all fasteners on the complete trailer to make sure they are all tight and ready for
towing. All fasteners should be periodically checked before towing.
See your ShoreLand'r Owner's Guide for further technical information regarding your trailer and its
components.
