To Drain:
1.

Rotate the winch drum to align the reduction gear plugs to
the drain position. Drain plug is located at bottom center.

2.

Remove the reduction gear drain plug and install a long
pipe nipple threaded at one end to 3/8-18 NPT. Remove
drain vent plug. Remove the disc brake drain plug.

NOTICE

• Always drain oil into a suitable container and inspect
drained oil for evidence of damage, metal shavings, dirt,
water, etc. Dispose of oil in an environmentally safe manner.

3.

Collect the drained oil and dispose of properly. If replacing
oil, refer to ‘To Fill’ instructions. Re-install the reduction
gear and disc brake plugs.

Motor Assembly

Refer to Dwg. MHP0565.
The motor is splash lubricated by the oil in the motor housing
and has no other means of lubrication. It is therefore important
to use only high quality rust and oxidation inhibiting lubricant to
ensure maximum performance and minimum downtime for
repairs. Allow oil to settle before topping off. Pour sufficient oil
into the vent cap opening to bring the oil in the motor case to the
level of the upper oil plug hole. Add oil slowly to prevent
spilling.
Oil capacity for the winch motor is 3 quarts (2.8 litres). Add oil
through the filler opening until oil flows from the level plug
hole.
The motor should be level-checked daily or at the start of each
shift after any accumulated water has been drained off. When
motors are operated in temperatures below freezing, wait long
enough at end of shift for water to separate from oil but not long
enough for it to freeze. Failure to drain the water when the
winch is to remain idle for an extended period at low
temperature may result in the oil splasher freezing fast. Drain the
water then refill to the level plug. If desired, all the oil may be
drained at the end of the shift and the motor refilled with new
oil.

Motor Fill and Drain Procedures
Refer to Dwg. MHP0565.
To Fill:
1.

Remove fill cap and level plug. Fill with oil slowly until oil
drains from level plug hole.

CAUTION

• Do not over fill. Excess oil will reduce operating efficiency
and increase oil temperature.

The use of unsuitable oil may result in excessive temperature
rise, loss of efficiency and possible damage to the motor. Use
only high quality rust and oxidation inhibiting lubricant.

To Drain:
1.

Remove lower case drain plug in motor housing. Loosen
fill cap to vent the motor housing.

Wire Rope

Follow the wire rope manufacturer's instructions. At a minimum,
observe the following guidelines.
1.

Clean with a brush or steam to remove dirt, rock dust or
other foreign material on the surface of the wire rope.

CAUTION

• Do not use an acid-based solvent. Only use cleaning fluids
specified by the wire rope manufacturer.

2.

Apply a wire rope lubricant, Ingersoll-Rand LUBRI-
LINK-GREEN or ISO VG 100 (30W) lubricant.

3.

Brush, drip or spray lubricant weekly, or more frequently,
depending on severity of service.
