OPERATION
WARNING! Do not release the clutch while the winch is pulling a
load. It may cause the load to shift or move unexpectedly and the
wire may snap with the unexpected stress. Either may cause death
or severe injury to the user or bystanders.
BEFORE FIRST USE
The steel cable must be broken-in before using to pull a heavy load.
The break-in process will stretch the cable, ensure the individual wires
are seated and the wire compacted. Run the winch with a light load
of approximately 150 lb several times, before normal use.
Also use the weight when spooling the cable onto the winch. This will
provide the correct tension when spooling.
OPERATION
1.
Make sure the operator can safely control the winch before
performing any functions with it and that they are familiar with
all safety and operating instructions.
2. Inspect the winch, steel cable (D) and terminal tackle before each
use. Replace any damaged or frayed components before use.
3. Connect the winch to a power 120V power supply.
4. Pull the clutch knob (E) out, twist a quarter turn and release to
disengage the brake.
5. Pull out the cable by the hook strap (#31) until you have the
desired length out.
5.1 Make sure there is always five turns of cable on the winch
drum.
