Please read and understand this owner’s manual before installing your H9Wwinch. Your H9W winch is a very powerful machine. If used unsafely
or improperly, there is a possibility that property damage or personal injury can result. We have included several unique features in the winch to
minimise this possibility; however, your safety ultimately depends on your caution when using the product.
Correct installation of your H9W winch is a requirement for proper operation.
Please note:
The Superwinch H9W winch is designed for total reliability during vehicle recovery operations. This winch is not designed to be
used in hoisting applications and Superwinch does not warrant it suitable for such use.
Superwinch reserve the right to alter model specifications without prior notice.
