Step (3)

Refer to Figure 8 for wiring diagram.

Route the short red and black colour coded wires from the control box to the 

motor. Route the long red and black colour coded wires from the control box 

to the battery. Attach the circuit breaker to battery end of the red wire. Wrap 

the circuit breaker with electrical tape to prevent accidental short circuits.

Apply several layers of electrical tape where wiring may come into contact 

with sharp metal parts of the vehicle to prevent insulation abrasion or 

cutting.

Attach the circuit breaker to the battery positive terminal. Connect the 

remaining black control box wire to the battery negative terminal. Open the 

cover on the control box, attach the remote control to the control box.

Step (4)

FREESPOOL OPERATION

Pull and turn the clutch knob to the “Free ” position as shown in Figure 9.

If there is a load on the winch rope, the clutch knob may not pull out easily. 

DO NOT FORCE THE CLUTCH KNOB. Release tension on the clutch by jogging 

out some of the winch rope. Release the clutch and pull out the winch rope and 

Batteries contain gasses which are flammable and 

explosive. Wear eye protection during installation and

remove all metal jewellery. Do not lean over battery 

while making connections.

secure to anchor or load. Check that there are at least five (5) turns of winch

rope left on the drum. Re-engage the drum by returning the clutch

knob to the “Engaged” position. (See Figure 9). Activate the winch in Cable 

Out momentarily to check drum rotation direction. If the drum rotates in the 

wrong direction, recheck your wiring.

DYNEEMA ROPE

1. The life of the dyneema winch rope is directly related to the care it receives. 

The winch rope on a new winch, and any replacement ropes, should be 

respooled under a minimum of 100 lb load before using the winch. Failure to do

this will result in winch rope damage. Inspect winch rope before use. Mashed, 

pinched, frayed or kinked areas severely reduce the load-carrying capacity. 

Replace damaged winch rope.

2. Prevent kinks before they occur.

(a) This is the start of a kink. At this time, the winch rope should be 

straightened.

(b) The winch rope was pulled and the loop has tightened to a kink. The winch

rope is now permanently damaged and should not be used .

(c) The result of kinking is that each strand pulls a different amount causing 

the strands under greatest tension to break and reduce load capacity of the 

winch rope.
