PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU GET STARTED
BE CAREFUL
Your winch rope is secured into the drum with an
aluminium crimp. This crimp is held in place with a grub
screw. If you are walking the rope out make sure not to
pull it all the way out with too much force as this could
cause the rope to separate from the crimp. (They are
well secured but with enough force it will come out) If
you are taking the rope off for any reason, don’t forget
to undo the grub screw first before trying to pull the
crimp out of the drum. (This applies to synthetic rope
and also steel cable).
When using the winch, a minimum of 5 tightly wrapped
turns of cable/rope must remain on the drum before
winching any load.
FAQs
Where is my wireless remote controller?
This is packaged up with the control box.
How do I switch on my wireless remote?
Press and hold the power button for up to
5 seconds until the LED indicator lights up.
Can I rotate my gearbox?
Yes you can. Please see instructions included
with the winch or visit the Support page on
www.runvawinch.com.au
Can I rotate my motor?
No this is not recommended.
Can I rotate my winch 180 degrees as this will
suit my fitment better?
Yes you can. You MUST unspool all of the
rope and feed it onto the drum in the opposite
direction as before. The rope will now feed over
the top of the drum rather than from the bottom.
(The standard fitment position is having the
motor on the left and gearbox on the right when
looking at the winch front on). Follow the arrow
direction on your winch. Failure to change the
rope direction will likely damage your winch and
void your warranty.
How do I install the winch on my winch bar?
Please refer back to your winch bar manufacturer
for instructions on fitting this winch into your bar
if you are unsure. If you do not have the manual,
the winch bar manufacturer should be able to
assist you.
