WARNING
electrical re:
Never route electrical cables across sharp edges.
Never route electrical cables near parts that get
hot.
Never route electrical cables through or near
moving parts.
Avoid pinch and wear/abrasion points when
installing all electrical cables.
Always insulate and protect all exposed wiring
WARNING
and electrical terminals.
NOTICE A fully charged battery and good connections are
essential to the proper operation of your winch. The minimum
requirement for a 12 volt DC battery is 650 Cold Cranking Amps.
Route battery connection cables in areas which
will not cause them to chafe or cut through the
insulation causing a potential short circuit.
The winch power wire must be routed to the
battery. A direct battery connection of the power
(red) and ground (black) cable is required. WARNING!
Do not connect ground to vehicle chassis.
Routing the battery cables may require removal
of vehicle facia or body parts.
Always route battery cables along a path that
allows the cables to be secured with zip ties.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Loose or unsecured power cables can cause
WARNING
serious injury or death.
Always protect power cables from sharp edges,
areas that get too hot to touch with your hand and
any moving parts.
1. Plan the routing path.
2. Loosely secure power cables along path.
3. Confirm power cables are protected from sharp
edges, heat and moving parts. Consider chassis
flex and vibration which might damage cable.
4. Connect the ground cable and small black wire
to winch motor ground. Ensure the ground
wire is securely fastened. Secure fasteners and
Torque nuts to 8.5 - 9 N-m (75-80 in. lb.).
5. Connect the labeled cables (A, F1 and F2) to
corresponding winch motor terminal. Torque
nuts to 8.5 - 9 N-m (75-80 in. lb.).
6. Carefully inspect electrical cable routing. Zip
tie and secure electrical cables. Zip ties should
be snug, but not cutting into wire insulation.
Use electrical tape, pieces of rubber hose or
electrical conduit to protect electrical cables
and wire harness where needed to avoid
electrical cable insulation wear or abrasion.
7. Attach battery cables, red (positive) cable
FIRST, black (negative) second. Install boots
as appropriate to protect connections. Torque
battery terminal fasteners as directed by vehicle
service manual.
Upon completion of installation, check winch for
proper operation.

FIRST TIME OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Step 3 - (Optional) Synthetic Rope
Installation
For synthetic rope models, be sure to fully read
the WARN Synthetic Rope Installation Instruction
manual for detailed synthetic rope installation
instructions.
Step 4 - System Check
1. With clutch engaged, power-in winch rope
while making sure drum is turning in the
proper direction.
2. Once you have confirmed winch rope is
winding on the drum in the correct direction,
continue to power-in the rest of the winch
rope.
11. Installation complete. Move on to First Time
Operating Instructions.
Step 5 - First Time Operating
Instructions
In this section, we'll show you the first
time operating instructions for effective basic
winch ing. For complete winch operation and
techniques read the Basic Guide to Winching
Techniques found online at http://www.warn.
com/corporate/literaturerequest.shtml.
Remote Control
The winch is controlled by the hand held
remote control. The remote control provides
control of the power-out (forward) or power-in
(reverse) rotation of the spooling drum.
Do not leave the remote plugged into the
winch when not in use. Leaving the remote
plugged in, may result in a dangerous condition
and/or battery drain.

Clutch Operation:
Never engage or disengage clutch if winch is
WARNING
under load, winch rope is in tension or drum is moving.
When the clutch is engaged, the gear train
is coupled to the winch drum and power can
be transferred from the winch motor. When the
clutch is disengaged the drum is in the freespool
position and the gear train and winch rope drum
are uncoupled allowing the drum to rotate freely.
The clutch lever, located on the winch housing
opposite the motor, controls the clutch position.
To prevent damage, always fully engage or fully
disengage the clutch lever.

Spooling Out
WARNING Never operate winch with less than 5 wraps
of rope around the drum. Rope could come loose from the
drum, as the rope attachment to the drum is not designed
to hold a load.
Always keep hands clear of winch rope,
WARNING
hook loop, hook and fairlead opening during installation,
operation, and when spooling in or out.
WARNING Always wear heavy leather gloves when
handling winch rope.
Freespooling is generally the quickest and
easiest way to spool out winch rope. Before
freespooling winch rope out from the winch,
power out enough rope to remove any tension
the winch rope might be under. Disengage the
Power Out
clutch. Then freespool by manually spooling out
enough winch rope for the winching operation.
See The Basic Guide to Winching Techniques for
more information.
NOTICE Do NOT power out more than 30ft without allowing
the winch to cool for 20 minutes before powering rope back in.
Instead, place the clutch in freespool and pull the rope out by hand.
Always use supplied hook strap whenever
