Please read and understand this Owner’s Manual prior to installing and using your winch.
Pay particular attention to the General Safety Information. Your winch is a very powerful
machine. If used unsafely or improperly, there is a possibility that property damage or per-
sonal injury can result. We have included several features in this winch to minimize this pos-
sibility; however, your safety ultimately depends on your caution when using this product.
Throughout this manual, you will find notations with the following headings:
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
will result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
may result in minor or moderate injury. This notation is also used
to alert against unsafe practices.
The following symbols on the product and in the Owner's manual are used:
Note:
Indicates additional information in the installation and operation procedures of your winch.
Correct installation of your winch is a requirement for proper operation.
Please Note
: Winch is designed primarily for intermittent applications. This winch is not designed to
be used in industrial or hoisting applications and Superwinch does not warrant it to be suitable for
such use. Superwinch manufactures a separate line of winches for industrial/ commercial use. Please
contact our Customer Service Department for further information. Congratulations on your choice!

Ratings assume a 10% coefficient of friction.
* A 10% slope is a rise of one foot in ten feet. Slope in approximate degrees is also shown above.
** All loads shown are for single-line operation. Double-line operation with optional pulley block
(see Figure 2) approximately doubles capacity of winch.
ROLLING LOAD CAPACITIES
Each winch is equipped with a permanent magnet motor
and is designed for intermittent duty general use. The winch
is not designed to be used in industrial or hoisting applica-
tions and the manufacturer does not warrant it to be suit-
able for such use.
Freespool Clutch is operated by a pull and turn knob which
disengages the gearbox to allow the wire rope to be pulled
out without using electric power. A tension plate reduces
backlash and snarling when pulling out the wire rope.
Remote Switch allows a wide variety of mounting options.
