Preparing & Stretching Winch Rope:
WARNING: Always pre-stretch all new ropes before first use. Failing to pre-stretch rope will
reduce maximum capacity of rope and may cause premature failure.
1. Position the vehicle on a flat surface approximately one full rope-length distance from an anchor point,
such as a large tree.
2. Connect rope to anchor point with at least five (5) full wraps of rope on the winch drum.
3. Recoil the rope back into the winch under at least 500 lb. (227 kg) of tension. Apply light pressure to
vehicle brake pedal as needed to produce load.
