CABLE INSTALLATION
1. Unwind cable by rolling it out along the ground to prevent kinking. Securely wrap end of cable,
opposite hook, with plastic or similar tape to prevent fraying.
2. Place taped end of cable into hole in cable drum, as shown below. Use 3/8-16NC x 1/2 lg. Hx.
Soc. drive setscrew (part of 234171 drum assembly) to secure cable to drum.
3. Carefully run winch in the "reel-in" direction. Keeping tension on end of cable, spool all the
cable onto the cable drum, taking care to form neatly wrapped layers.
After installing cable, check freespool operation. Disengage clutch and pull on cable at a walking
speed. If cable "birdnests", loosen jam nut (item #21) and turn nylon screw (item #19) clockwise to
increase drag on drum. If cable pull is excessive loosen nylon setscrew by turning counterclockwise.
Tighten jam nut when proper setting is obtained.
CAUTION: Over-tightening of jam nut may strip nylon setscrew.
