1.4 INSTALLATION OF WIRE ROPE
1.4.1
To install wire rope, rotate the drum of the winch so that the U-bolt nuts are easily accessed through
the round cut out located on the side of the winch (see fig. 2a).
1.4.2
Using a standard socket wrench with an extension, loosen the nuts.
1.4.3
If installing wire rope on a new winch, remove and discard the u-bolt spacer pipe. If replacing worn out
wire rope, remove the wire rope from the U-bolt and dispose of properly.

CAUTION
Remember to always wear the proper protective equipment when handling the wire rope.
1.4.4
Rotate the U-bolt so it is at the bottom of the winch and insert the new wire rope end under the winch
drum and through the U-bolt from the front of the winch so that approximately 3 to 4 inches extend
through the U-bolt.
1.4.5
Ensure that the wire rope remains in the U-bolt and rotate the drum around so the U-bolt aligns with
the cable clamp access cut out (see fig. 2b).
NOTICE
Breaking strength of new wire rope should be a least 3 times greater than the largest load placed on
the winch. This minimum value may be greater depending on type of load and the method of moving
the load.
CAUTION
The U-bolt nuts must be retightened periodically to insure that the wire rope end is held in
place snugly against the drum flange. Over time and usage the rope will “crush” down at the
U-bolt creating the possibility that the rope end will escape.
