Intensive use of the winch may cause
the built-in circuit breakers to momen-
tarily turn OFF. In such a case, wait a
moment, then continue winching. the
breakers automatically turn ON once
they cooled down.
The following tips will help to reduce
the risk of discharging the battery:
–
Always unreel manually: Unlock
the cable using the handle then
pull on the hook strap to unreel.
– Let the vehicle run while winching.
Do not stop vehicle immediately
after winching to let battery
recharge.
– Also, when winching for more than
30 seconds, it is recommended to
increase engine RPM in the range
of 3000 RPM to increase charging
power to the battery.
