WARNING: DO NOT attempt to winch an object using the Cable at its maximum extension.
There should always be one layer of Cable wrapped around the Drum (11). The last layer of Cable is
coloured red and should not be extended off the Drum for winching operations.
4. Securely attach the Hook (9) to the load using the Hook Strap (22), ensuring the Hook Strap is
centred in the loop of the Hook and the gate in the Hook Opening (10) is fully closed.
Note: Only pull the Hook by using the Hook Strap.
5. Begin winching by pressing and holding the Retract Hook Button (4).
WARNING: During operation, always ensure you and any bystanders stand clear from the Cable.
If the Cable breaks or slips, it will suddenly whip back.
Note: Place a heavy rag over the Cable roughly halfway along the length once it is under tension.
This will help dampen recoil effects if the Cable or Hook were to break or detach from the
object abruptly.
6. Check to see whether the load is secure in its current position, apply wheel chocks or securing
straps to ensure the load remains in position when the Hook is detached.
7. Once the object has been winched to the desired destination, extend the Cable slightly by
pressing the Extend Hook Button (5) to ease Hook removal.
• Avoid allowing the Cable to bunch up on the Drum when retracting. Always ensure the Cable
is wound in neatly, and if possible retract the Cable in a straight line. Improper winding may
damage the Cable.
• The Roller Fairlead (19) can accept winching angles of up to 45° in either direction, on the
horizontal axis (Fig. II). Angles of 15° in either direction can be accepted on the vertical plane
(Fig. III).
Angle pull
• An angle pull is a method of winching that is used when there is an obstruction preventing a
direct path for recovery.
1. Coordinate a path for a direct line of recovery, ensuring to pick a sturdy object as an angle point
(Fig. IV).
Note: Two direct lines will need to be created; winch vehicle to snatch block (not included), and
snatch block to load, see (Fig. IV) for an example layout.
2. Use a pull strap (not included) to protect the object being used as the angle point. Wrap the pull
strap around the object and connect a snatch block to provide the route for the Cable (13).
3. Put the vehicle in neutral and engage the parking brake.
4. Release the Clutch Lever (12) and free spool the Cable outwards, running it through the
snatch block.
5. Follow steps 4-6 under 'Using the winch' to commence winching.
Double-line rigging
• By doubling the Cable (13) pulling the load (Fig. V), the load on the winch is decreased, allowing
for longer work times and increased pulling power.
1. Find a secure point on the load to feed the Cable through. It may be necessary to use a snatch
block and pull strap (not included) to safely secure the Cable to the load.
2. With the Cable fed through a suitable point on the load, direct the Cable back towards
the vehicle.
3. Attach to a suitable anchor point.
Note: It is recommended to use an anchor point other than the winching point, such as a large tree
or rock. This will prevent further stresses to the vehicle.
4. Follow steps 4-6 under 'Using the winch' to commence winching.

Maintenance
WARNING: ALWAYS disconnect from the power supply before carrying out any inspection,
maintenance or cleaning.
General inspection
• Before every use, carry out a visual and tactile inspection of all components of the winch. Perform
a detailed examination if the equipment has not been used for some time.
• Check for damaged, corroded, misaligned, worn or loose components and any part of the tool
that is integral to safe operation. Do not use the winch if components are notably damaged;
repairs to the winch should be carried out by an authorised Silverline service centre.
• Check regularly that all the fixing screws are tight.
Cable inspection
WARNING: ALWAYS check the condition of the Cable (13) before every use. Even slight
imperfections in the Cable can greatly decrease the Cable's ability to carry load.
• The Cable cannot be pulled perfectly straight and displays imperfections along the length. This
signifies the Cable has been kinked and is no longer safe for use. Discard and replace.
• If the Cable strands are shown being partially detached from the main body of the cable, this
signifies the Cable is frayed. Discard and replace.
• Lubricate the Cable frequently to prevent corrosion and excessive wear from external elements.
• Pay extra attention to the Hook (9) and the Cable condition around the Hook for preliminary
wear. Ensure the Hook Opening (10) mechanism is intact.
WARNING: If any damage to the Cable is detected, ensure the Cable is immediately detached
from the winch and removed from service to avoid unintentional use.
Cable replacement
1. Disengage the clutch by turning the Clutch Lever (12) so it is in the raised position. Pull out the
Cable (13) to the full extent of its travel, and return the Clutch Lever to its lowest position.
2. Remove the Cable from the Drum (11) by unscrewing the hex screw using a 2.5mm hex key
(not provided).
3. Feed the new Cable through the Roller Fairlead and refit the end to the Drum , ensuring
correct orientation.
Note: The Cable should be pulled inwards from the bottom of the Drum (Fig. I).
Cleaning
• Keep your tool clean at all times. Dirt and dust will cause internal parts to wear quickly, and
shorten the machine's service life. Clean the body of your machine with a soft brush, or dry cloth.
If available, use clean, dry, compressed air to blow through the ventilation holes.
• Clean the tool casing with a soft damp cloth using a mild detergent. Do not use alcohol, petrol
or strong cleaning agents.
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.
Lubrication
• Lubricate the Cable (13) at regular intervals with a suitable lubricant to prevent rusting.
Storage
• Store this tool carefully in a secure, dry place out of the reach of children.
