22. Connect the battery leads from the contactor to the
vehicle’s battery (black to black, and red to red, see
diagram on page 8).
23. Check for proper drum rotation. Turn the clutch
cap to the RELEASE position. Pull out some cable
from the drum and then turn the clutch cap to the
ENGAGE position to engage the gears. Make sure
your vehicle is running and press the cable out
button on the switch. If the spool is turning and
releasing more cable, then your connections are
accurate. If the spool is turning and collecting more
cable, then reverse the leads on the motor. Repeat
and check rotation.
