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 plastic stops allow for the

variance in most deck heights. It is adjustable

up or down approximately 3” if required. This is

accomplished by loosening and removing the

two bolts that attach the top of the winch post

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.

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.
