the parking brake. This will ensure that there is no load
on the winch wire rope. Then place the transmission in
park or in gear and turn the vehicle off. Exit the vehicle.
Disconnect the hook from the anchor. While holding
onto the supplied hook strap, hold tension on the winch
rope and slowly power in the winch by "pulsing" the
power in on the remote control until the hook is within
3 ft of the fairlead. Stop winching in and attach the
hook to a suitable anchor point on the vehicle. DO NOT
POWER THE HOOK INTO THE FAIRLEAD. This could
cause damage to the fairlead. Once the hook is suitably
attached to the vehicle, power in the remaining slack in
the winch rope by "pulsing" the power in on the remote
until there is minimal slack in the winch wire rope.
SPOOLING
SPOOLING OUT
• Freespooling is generally the quickest and easiest
way to spool out wire rope. Before freespooling
wire rope out from the winch, power out
enough rope to remove any tension the wire
rope may be under. Disengage the clutch. Now
freespool by manually spooling out enough wire
rope for the winching operation. Always leave at
least 5 wraps on the drum.
SPOOLING IN UNDER LOAD
• Never exceed winch's rated line pull.
• Power in the wire rope evenly and tightly on
the drum. This prevents the outer wire wraps
from drawing into the inner wraps, binding, and
damaging the wire rope.
• Avoid shock loads when spooling, by using the
control switch intermittently to take up wire rope
slack. Shock loads can momentarily far exceed
the winch and wire rope ratings.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
SPOOLING IN UNDER NO LOAD
• Assisted - Have your assistant hold the hook
with the hook strap putting as much constant
tension on the wire rope as possible. While
keeping tension, the assistant should walk
toward the winch while you operate the control
switch spooling in the wire rope. Release
the switch when the hook is a minimum
of 8 ft
[ 2.44 m ] from the fairlead opening.
Spool in the remainder for storage.
• Unassisted - Arrange the wire rope to be
spooled so it will not kink or tangle when
spooled. Be sure any wire rope on the drum is
tightly and evenly layered. Spool enough wire
rope to complete the next full layer on the drum.
Tighten and straighten the layer. Repeat
process until the hook is a minimum
of 8 ft [ 2.44 m ] from the fairlead
opening.
Spool in the remainder for storage.
SPOOLING REMAINDER FOR STORAGE
• Secure the hook to a suitable anchor point near
the winch. Carefully power in the remaining wire
rope, jogging the control switch to take up the
last of the slack. Be careful not to over tighten
or damage may occur to the wire rope or anchor
point.
SOUND EMISSIONS
• The winch is designed so that the sound
emissions do not exceed 70 dBa from the
operator's station. The operator must be at least
8 ft. (2.44m) from the winch while operating.
If the winch is exceeding 70 dBa from the
operator's station, have it inspected at an
authorized service center.
