Installation Guide
- Ensure the boat is off the trailer and the trailer is parked on a level surface with wheels chocked for safety.
- Locate the existing bow roller assembly and use appropriate tools to remove the nut and bolt from the mounting shaft.
- Slide the old shaft and roller out of the bracket, taking note of the order of any washers or end caps.
- Clean the mounting bracket area to remove any dirt or corrosion.
- Slide the new bolt through the bracket and one end bell, then place the new bow roller onto the bolt.
- Position the second end bell on the other side of the roller and slide the bolt completely through.
- Secure the assembly by tightening the washer and nut. Do not overtighten; the roller should spin freely with minimal side-to-side movement.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this roller fits my trailer?
A: This assembly is designed for trailer brackets that use a 1/2-inch diameter mounting shaft. Measure your trailer's existing hardware and bracket width to ensure it matches the product dimensions (7" L x 4" W).
Q: What are the benefits of the polyurethane material?
A: Polyurethane is a durable, non-marking material that won't leave scuffs or scratches on your boat's hull. It is also highly resistant to UV degradation, chemicals, and water, ensuring a longer service life compared to traditional rubber rollers.
Q: When should I replace my bow roller?
A: Inspect your bow roller regularly for signs of wear, such as deep cracks, flat spots, or deformation. Replace it if it no longer spins freely or fails to provide adequate support, as a worn roller can damage your boat's bow during loading and transport.
