Step 3. Slowly pull out the winch line. Route the line over the support
structure pulley system. See the support structure
manufacturer's instructions for details.
E. WELDED INSTALLATIONS: If welding the mounting bracket to a
support structure it is recommended that the welding be done by a
certified welder. Portions of the mounting bracket that have been
exposed due to welding should be painted or otherwise protected
from corrosion.

3.5 OPERATION OF WINCH:
A. CONNECTING WINCH LINE TO LOAD: See Figure 7. For
applications that do not require a secondary PFAS, the winch line
should be connected to the worker's harness back D-ring. For
applications requiring a secondary PFAS, the winch line should be
connected to a Y-type lanyard and this lanyard should be attached to
the worker's harness shoulder D-rings. The secondary lifeline should
be connected to the worker's harness back D-ring. For material
handling applications, connect the winch line to the load using a tie-
off adapter or other anchoring device.
B. SALALIFT WINCH (8101000 Series): Attach the winch to the
support structure as described in section 3.4 (D). Install the winch
crank handle onto the high or low speed shaft by aligning the handle
with the shaft and pushing firmly inward until the handle snaps in
place. To release the handle from the shaft, depress the handle
release and pull the handle off the shaft. Pull the ratchet lever
downward and feed the line off the drum by rotating the crank handle
in the “lower” direction. Route the line over the support structure
pulley system.
