Battery

•  Check that the battery is in good 

condition. Avoid contact with battery acid 
and other contaminants.

•  Always wear ANSI approved safety glasses 

when handling batteries.

•  Keep the engine running while winching 

to keep the battery fully charged.

•  Stand at a safe distance from the 

extension of the wire during the winching. 
If the wire comes loose or breaks, the end 
of the wire will be thrown back with great 
force.

•  Keep your hands, clothing, hair and 

jewellery away from the winch when in 
use.

•  Have another person keep watch and 

check that the winch can be used safely. 
Make sure that this person is at a safe 
distance from the vehicle and the wire 
before starting the winch.

Load limits.

•  Never overload the winch.
•  Never attempt to crank to reinforce the 

pulling power. This will damage the winch 
and can cause personal injury.

Avoid damaging the winch and 
property

•  Avoid winding at an angle so that the wire 

is only wound up on one side of the drum. 
This can damage the wire, or the winch.

•  Check that the coupling is always 

completely engaged or disengaged.

•  Do not use the winch to tow other vehicles 

or objects. Shock loads can temporarily 
exceed the capacity of the wire and winch.

•  Avoid unwinding the wire long distances 

with the winch motor. This generates heat 
and excessive wear on the winch motor 
and brake.

•  Take care not to damage the vehicle 

chassis when winching with the wire 
anchored in a vehicle.

•  Do not step feed a tensioned wire. Shock 

loads can temporarily exceed the capacity 
of the wire and winch.

•  Do not use the winch to secure a load 

during transport.

•  Do not immerse the winch in water or any 

other liquid.

•  Store the remote control in a well 

protected, clean and dry place.

•  Double the wire or use an anchor point at a 

long distance when rigging. This maximises 
the pulling power and prevents the winch 
being overloaded.

•  If the wire has ended up in water or clay 

during the winching, dismantle the winch 
motor and rotor and dry the internal parts 
with hot air. Do not start the winch motor 
until all the parts are dry.

Wire

•  Always check before use that the wire is in 

good condition and correctly fastened.

•  Do not use the winch if the wire is 

damaged.

•  Never replace the wire with a wire with 

less tensile strength.
