Winch wiring

So I got a steal on a Mile Marker 8000 winch, and I mean steal. The problem is that the guy didnt remember where to hook the hot and ground leads to the solenoids. I cant find a diagram anywhere. Any help would make my day. Also I will have pics soon of the new bumper I am building to hold this puppy.

what kind of relay is it? If its a "Normal" (can't remember what its called right now), there will be 4 pins. If this is so pins 30 and 87 will have continuity when power is put to 85 & 86 (eg hot and ground respectively). Hope this helps.

For example, heres a diagram I made up for an aftermarket horn. Difference is where the stock horn connector is would be your switch and where the horn is would be your winch.
