SYNTHETIC ROPE MAINTENANCE:

Minimize abrasion:

 Use movable Abrasion Sleeve whenever contact with rocks or other objects 

occurs. Slide Abrasion Sleeve up and down Synthetic Rope as required. Abrasion will reduce 

Synthetic Rope Life.

Keep clean:

 Allowing dirt and debris to enter Synthetic Rope will lead to abrasion.

Avoid sharp bends:

 A sharp bend will decrease Synthetic Ropes strength substantially under load 

and may cause damage or failure.

MAINTENANCE:

-  Check tightness of all mounting hardware and electrical connections periodically.

-  Keep Winch clean. Remove all dirt and corrosion as required.

-  Do not disassemble Mechanical Gear System. High temperature lithium grease has been applied at the 

factory. No user maintenance is required.

WARNING:

If Synthetic Rope has become worn or is beginning to show signs of breaking, 

replace immediately. 

Replace with identical part number

. Refer to SuperATV 

Synthetic Rope instruction when installing.
