(5) Insert the 7/ 6” leg
pin into the 3rd hole
up (approx). This will
give you room to work
under the clamps. You
can adjust after hoist is
complete if necessary.
Note: These holes
should be on the top
when the tube is
inserted. They are for
the diagonal brace
connection.

Page#5
(11)To ‘square’ , or tram the hoist you will need to
measure the distance between each Column from
inside corner to inside corner as shown below. You
may need some help to hold the tape measure. If
the two measurements are not equal you can push
or pull on the Columns to adjust them accordingly.
Once they measure equally go ahead and tighten
the bolts and nuts that connect the Galvanized
Corner Plates that were assembled in the previous
step.
(12) Insert the Diagonal Supports into the 2 5/ 6”
square x 3 /2” long tube that is welded on the
Winch Column as well as the Winch Column
Opposite. Secure with a /2”x 3” bolt and a /2”
nylon lock nut. The Supports are 2”x 2”x 85 /8”
long on the V25 and are 2”x 2”x 83 /8” long on
both the V35 & V45. Use (4) 3/ 6”x 2”x 6” long
flat bar (shown above) with (6) 3/8” x 2 3/4” bolts
and 3/8” whiz nuts to secure bottom of brace to the
Lower Side Panel. Make sure the bolts stick
toward the outside of the hoist. This will help
prevent any scratching when loading and unloading
your boat.

(10) Put the /4” Galvanized Corner Plates on all
four corners. Use the existing bolts and attach the
3/8” whiz nuts on the underside. Do not tighten as
some adjustments will be required when ‘squaring’
the hoist in the next step.

(14) Use the vinyl bunks that came with the hoist package as
a ‘prop’ to separate the twin beams from the assembled lower
frame. You can also use the pontoon rack wood if your hoist
came with that package. Temporary boards in the four
corners will work as well (shown here).

(13) Find the column clamps 3” square x 3” long for
V25 or 3” square x 4” long for the V35 & V45. Slide
over each column on the top side facing toward the
inside of columns. They will only slide down until the
point where the raised beaded surface starts. Next,
insert the Upper Cable Tube (sizes shown to the right)
into the column clamps and secure with 2- 3/8”x3”
bolts and 2-3/8” whiz nuts. It is helpful to insert ( )
bolt in the bottom of the clamp (shown here)
and use as a prop and then secure the opposite side.
Again, make sure bolts are sticking to the outside of
the hoist to prevent damage.

connection plate. The larger plate will be on top of the
tube. Place the Cradle Tubes so the angle portion of the
connection plate is facing the inside of the hoist. Match
the top larger hole with the holes on the twin beam on
all four corners.
(17) Next, starting with the Non-Winch front corner you will
need to pull the cable coming from the Twin Beams through the
corresponding hole in the Right Cradle Tube. The cable with a
long threaded end coming out of the front Twin Beam will be
pulled through to attach to the Upper Cable Tube. The cable
coming out of the Cradle Tube Right with the short threaded
end will go down to the /4” galvanized plate
fastened to the lower frame.

(21) On every corner there will be a cable with a short threaded end going down. Pull the
cable down through the hole in the galvanized corner bracket. In the rear of the lift the hole
will be closest to the column. In the front of the lift the hole you will use will be the one
farthest away from the column. See diagram at bottom for positions. Make sure the cables are
going straight down. Using a 5/ 6” ratchet, 9/ 6” wrench and a 5/8” lock nut (this will be in
the bolt bag with the black caps) tighten the nut to the top of the threads. This will prevent any
un-necessary slack in the cable. Do this on all four corners.

(19) Move on to the corner opposite of the Winch
corner. There will be two cables coming out the Rear
Twin Beam. The one closest to the column with the
long threaded end will be pulled through to be
attached to the welded tube at the top of the column.
The other one will go down through the hole of the
welded bracket on the Left Cradle Tube to be
attached to the lower frame. The cable with the long
threaded end coming out of the Left Cradle Tube will
go up through the hole in the top of the bracket to
also be attached to the welded bracket at the top of
the column.

the black guide plate
attached. This will be
done in the next few steps.
(20) Continue on to the Non-Winch
rear corner. This will be done the
same way as step # 9.

(23) Starting in the Non Winch Column rear corner,
pull the two cables with the long threaded end out far
enough to reach the holes in the Upper Cable Support
Tube. Attach them on the top with (2) 5/8” washers
and (2) 5/8” nylon lock nuts. Do not tighten down at
this point.

(26) Using a 5/ 6” ratchet
and a 9/ 6” wrench go around
to each corner and tighten the
nylon lock nuts. Leave a little
slack but not too much. You
should be able to grab them
and move them back and forth
freely. Having the cables too
tight will inhibit the hoist from
going down freely.

(22) Next, attach the black polypro guide plates in each corner. Insert (5)
3/8”x /2” bolt with washer and 3/8” whiz nut into each hole in the
guide plate. You will also need to insert a 3/8”x /4” bolt with a 3/8”
whiz nut in the hole on the cradle bracket that the guide plate didn’t cover
as well as the (3) holes in the bottom inside of the twin beam. The washer
is not required for these bolts.

(27) In the upper hole, insert ( )
/2”x4” flanged bolt and /2”
whiz nut into the Winch Column
from the inside going to the
outside. Take the cover off the
winch box and slide the keyhole
slot over the flanged bolt. Insert
the other flanged bolt up through
the bottom open area of the winch
box and through the lower hole in
the Winch Column.
WINCH INSTALLATION
Note: We use a 11:1 Winch on the V25 &
V35 and a 16:1 Winch on the V45.
(28) Tighten bolts with a 9/ 6”
socket on the inside of the Winch
box and a 9/ 6” open end
wrench on the outside.
(29) Remove the 3/8”x3/4” bolt and
washer from the end of the Winch shaft
and take off the thread protective sleeve.
The threads will have some grease on it.
This keeps the wheel spinning freely.
Leave the bolt and washer off for now.
(30) Take the end of
the cable coming out of
the front Twin Beam
and insert it up through
the bottom of the Winch
Box. This cable will
not have a threaded end
on it. Wrap it around
the back side of the
lower drum assembly
and pull out of the box.
Next, put in the cable
and push it through the
hole that is in the plate
on the drum assembly.
You can turn the wheel
shaft to adjust the
position of the hole to
make it easier. Pull
extra cable out.
(31) Push the cable through
the block with the set
screws . (32) make sure the
cable is hanging
out less than 1/4”
and tighten the two
set screws with
supplied allen
wrench.

(34) Put a 3/8”x2 /2” bolt through the knob and
spin on a 3/8” whiz nuts. Don’t spin the nut all
the way to the knob or else it won’t turn freely,
leave a small gap. Put the rest of the bolt through
the hole in the wheel plate and put a nut on the
back side. Use an open end 9/ 6” wrench to hold
the nut by the knob and tighten the nut on the
back side of wheel plate.
(37) Put the 3/8”x3/4” bolt with the
heavy 3/8” washer back on the
winch shaft and tighten.
(33) The wheel sticker covers the hole for
the winch threaded shaft to go through so
the sticker needs to be cut out in the hole
area.
(35) Take the wheel and thread it on the
winch clockwise. Thread it on until it
comes in contact with the brake pad. At this
point when the wheel turns you should hear
the ratchet paw clicking on the ratchet
plate.
(36) Level wind the cable in the
winch spool by turning the wheel
clockwise. A clicking should be
heard as the ratchet paw brakes
against the ratchet plate. At some
point the hoist carriage will start to
rise. The platform should stay put
when the wheel is let go. Sometimes
the carriage needs some more
weight on it to stay though. Now
would be a good time to spray the
cable inside the Winch Box with a
White Lithium Grease. You can get
this at your local hardware in a spray
can. Spray in a back and forth
motion enough to cover the cable.
Once finished put the cover plate
back on the Winch Box.
View of how the cable
should wind on the drum
Note: Cable life can be extended up to 3 times
longer by regular lubrication of the Winch
Cable. This will keep the cable moving freely
along the rollers on the bottom of the Winch
Box.
IMPORTANT: After the main hoist components have been assembled, it is important to
check and see that the winch mechanism is functioning properly. You can do this by raising
the empty platform (carriage) up about a /3 of the way and releasing your grasp on the lift
wheel. If the winch is operating properly the clutch brake will automatically hold the
platform. Repeat at higher locations. When you have your lift in the water repeat this test
with your boat on it. If the lift wheel begins to spin down freely from any of these test
positions, at no time should you attempt to prevent it from doing so. Such action could
result in injury to arms and hands. Instead simply let the platform spin down into the water.
Doing so will neither damage your boat or hoist. If the lift is cranked up as high as it will
go and someone continues to crank the lift up the cable or boat lift will break at some point
and boat will drop down. If for some reason your winch mechanism does not function as
described call your local Craftlander dealer.
**DO NOT TAMP R WITH WINCH M CHANISM**

(38) Next you will need to find the black plastic caps. There will be (2) 3”x3” with the numbers 0- 4 stamped in the inside and
these will be put into the top of the Non-Winch Columns. The (2) 3”x3” with the number 5-8 will be used on the Winch and
Winch Column Opposite. There will be ( ) 4”x2” rectangular cap that will be put into the welded tube on the Winch Column
Opposite. There will be (2) 2”x2” caps that will be used on the diagonal braces. You can softly tap them into place with a
hammer.

Hoists manufactured after January 20 0 are supplied with vinyl covered aluminum bunks.
Carpeted bunks are available upon request. Please note that hoists ordered with a pontoon kit
will not come with bunks.
Vinyl Covered Aluminum Bunks
Standard Bunk Flat Bars
Note: Bunks shown
assembled on the hoist. Fit
and adjust to boat. Boat
weight should be loaded
100% on the bunks.
Bunk shown on the
left is set up with our
‘ski’ bars. The length
on this type of bar is
20” versus the
standard length of 13”
and will get your boat
up higher. The ski
bunk setup can be
ordered as an option.
(39) The last step will be to attach the aluminum bunks to the front and back beams. All of the hardware to do this will be in the
bunk bolt bag. Use the instructions contained within the bolt bag to attach the bars to the vinyl covered bunks. You may need to
make adjustments once you have your boat in the water.

Safety Precautions!!!
In order to prevent possible injury to both the operator and
equipment it is extremely important that the lift wheel is
always turned clockwise when raising the platform. Close
attention should be paid to the decal on wheel raise and lower
arrows. (clockwise raises, counter clockwise
lowers) If cable is unwound counter clockwise and
continued to turn counter clockwise the hoist will begin to
raise causing winch damage and brake will not work which
could cause injury. Under no circumstances should one raise
the platform by turning the wheel counter
clockwise. Never flip the ratchet located at the lower left
corner of the winch box up or raise counter clockwise, as this
will cause uncontrollable spin.

It is recommended that your Craftlander Lift
be thoroughly inspected at least once a
season. Tighten all bolts. Check all pulleys
and make sure they are turning freely.
Inspect all cables for fraying, wearing or
deteriorating. If any signs appear, replace
cables. Check frame thoroughly. Grease the
winch drive chain. Turn lift wheel off shaft.
Remove washer and grease threads on
winch. Do not grease clutch plate on
winch. Check for rust on clutch plate then
sand and clean off if needed. Install wheel
back on lift with retaining bolt and washer
and follow the raising instructions in this
manual.
This is a typical safety precaution sticker
that is applied to our lifts. If your sticker is
not legible Be sure to contact your
Craftlander dealer for a new one.

Craftlander Boat Hoists
Your Craftlander Hoist Limited Warranties
During the terms of the Limited Warranties on your aluminum Craftlander hoist, NuCraft Metal Products, Inc.
(hereafter referred to as “NuCraft”) covers the cost of all parts needed to repair or replace any NuCraft supplied item
that proves defective in material, workmanship or factory preparation. These replacements will be supplied
by your dealer at no charge using new or remanufactured parts.
Your Legal Rights Under NuCraft’s Limited Warranties
All of the NuCraft Limited Warranties stated in this booklet are the only express written warranties made by
NuCraft applicable to the aluminum Craftlander hoist. These Limited Warranties give you specific legal rights and
you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. You may have some implied warranties, depending on
the state in which your aluminum hoist is registered.
For example, you may have:
. An “implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose,” (that your hoist is reasonably fit for the general
purpose for which it was sold);
2. An “implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose,” (that your hoist is suitable for your special
purposes; if your special purposes were specifically disclosed to NuCraft itself-not merely to the distributor or
dealer-prior to purchase.)
These implied warranties are limited, to the extent allowed by law, to the time period covered by the written
warranties set forth in this publication. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts,
so the above limitations may not apply to you.
SUBS QU NT BUY R/OWN R
This Warranty is extended only to the first buyer/owner of the hoist. This is defined as the first legal owner of a
NuCraft aluminum Craftlander other than an authorized Distrubutor or Dealer who has bought the hoist from
NuCraft for resale to the public.
HOIST ALT RATION
This warranty does not cover alteration of the aluminum Craftlander hoist, or failure of hoist components caused by
such alteration.
PRODUCTION CHANG S
NuCraft and its distributors/dealers reserve the right to make changes in aluminum Craftlander hoists built and/or
sold by them at any time without incurring any obligation to make the same or similar changes on hoists previously
built and/or sold by them.
Your 2-Year Basic Limited Warranty
WHAT IS COVERED:
The 2-Year “Basic Warranty” covers every NuCraft supplied part on your aluminum Craftlander
hoist and aluminum canopy support frame.
This is a typical sticker put on our vertical lifts. If a boat is loaded on
the hoist with too much weight on one end it may not work properly
when going down. The lift may bind and only one end will go down. If
this happens, more weight needs to placed on the light end of hoist to
relieve pressure on the cables leveling it in that direction. (Do not put
people in the boat as weight injury could result). When the hoist is
down remove the weight and reload the hoist with better weight
distribution.
Additional warning sticker is
placed on the winch column
and on interior of the lift as a
reminder of the danger. The
boat lift is not meant to lift
humans which means the
guides ons also. The cable can
break unexpectedly so keep
that in mind and don’t allow
swimming near or under the lift
also.

These stickers are similar to ones on the hoist wheel and
column. Wheel brake works when cranking in the up direction only.
Stickers say:
Failure to follow below instructions will result in uncontrolled spin
down and possible personal injury and or hoist damage.
Lift wheel must be turned clockwise for lifting. Do not raise hoist by
turning wheel counter clock wise/down direction.
Possible personal injury and or hoist damage may result.
DO NOT work, play, be in or around or under hoist with boat in.
Do NOT leave hoist unattended without first securing
wheel.
DO NOT reach through hoist wheel serious personal injury may
result.
DO NOT attempt to stop spinning wheel. Serious injury may
result.
