WINCH OPERATION

EN
1. Clutch Operation: The clutch is
operated by turning the Clutch Knob
(part#3) clockwise about 45°-90°
to "DISENGAGE" position (see
Figure 5).This will allow you to free
spool the winch. Turn Clutch Knob
(part#3) anticlockwise to "ENGAGE"
position until it pops back into
place & make it go fully in gear.
CAUTION: Never release the wire rope
while under tension. Doing this can
badly damage the winch and/or cause
property damage and serious injury.
2. Wire Rope Handling: Grab the Hook
with Pulling Belt (part#28), and pull
the wire rope to the desired length,
then attach the hook to item being
pulled. Make sure the hook spring-
loaded latch is set.
CAUTION: Always leave at least five
turns of wire rope on the drum. Review
Winch Safety Warnings & Precautions
before continuing.

3. While standing aside of the tow
path, press (and hold) the push but-
ton on the remote control to pull
the load. If the load will not move,
release pull switch and check for ob-
stacles blocking the load, or check
to see if load is too heavy for winch
capacity.
CAUTION: This winch is designed for
intermittent use only, and should not
be used in a constant duty application.
The duration of the pulling job should
be kept as short as possible. If the
winch motor becomes very hot to touch,
stop the winch and let it cool down for
several minutes. Never pull for more
than one minute at or near the rated
load. Do not maintain power to the
winch if the motor stalls as it can da-
mage the motor or gear.
Note: A fully charged battery will give
best service the engine should be kept
running during operation.
MAINTENANCE
LUBRICATION:
1. All moving parts within the winch
have been lubricate using high
temperature lithium grease at the
factory. No internal lubrication is
required.
2. Lubricate wire rope periodically
using a light penetrating oil.
CABLE ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT
(to be performed only by a qualified
service tech.)
1. Move Clutch Knob (part#3) to the
OUT position.
2. Extend Cable Assembly (part#37)
to its full length. Note how the
existing Wire Rope is connected to
the inside of the drum.
3. Remove old Cable Assembly and
attach new one.
4. Retract Cable onto Drum (part#26)
being careful not to allow kinking.
GENERAL
1. Keep vehicle battery in good condition.
2. Be sure that the winch battery
cable are not drawn tight against
any surfaces which could possibly
damage them.
3. Periodically remove and clean cable
connections to the battery fuse box
and chassis ground corrosion will
reduce performance or may cause
a short.
4. Cover the cables and winch when
not in use.
