Wiring Installation of Bulldog Utility Winch BDW15008
Question:
Pardon my ignorance. Looking for something easily mounted on an ATV. It appears I can mount this winch without permanent wiring to the battery. Would I be right in assuming I connect the remote to the battery and winch whenever I need to use it?

Expert Reply:
The remote included with Bulldog Utility Winch # BDW15008 is a wired unit with cables that attach to both the battery and winch with included ring terminals. These are shown on the linked photo.
If you only expect to use the winch on occasion and don't mind having to re-connect the cables at either the battery or winch end, then you will be fine. You may want to keep a spare wrench (or other tool) on the ATV to ensure your ability to use the winch in an emergency.
