To temporarily wire the winch to a 12V
battery:
1.
Plug the power cable into the cor-
responding plug socket on the winch.
Route the power cable from the winch
to your battery, being careful to avoid
getting it tangled with the other wires or
causing a tripping hazard.
2.
Connect the red alligator clip to the
positive (+/RED) terminal of your bat-
tery. Use only a 12V battery source that
is in good working condition. Connect
the black alligator clip to the frame of
your vehicle to establish a ground con-
nection.
3.
Plug the remote control switch into the
second plug socket on the side of the
winch. This remote switch allows the
winch to be operated from a safe dis-
tance.
4.
Set the remote control aside in a safe
place until the winch is ready to oper-
ate.
To permanently wire the winch to a 12V
battery:
The included power cable can be used for
a permanent wiring set-up; however, the
alligator clips must be replaced with suit-
able connectors (not included) to allow the
red wire to hook up to a positive 12V power
source and the black wire to connect to the
vehicle frame. Route the wires through the
vehicle in a way that will prevent damage
to the wires during operation and mainte-
nance of the vehicle.
Important Wiring Reminders
1. Always wear ANSI approved safe-
ty glasses when operating the
winch or working near the 12V
battery.
2. Always connect the positive (+/
RED) cable to the positive (+/
RED) battery post and the nega-
tive (-/BLACK) cable to the vehi-
cle frame.
3. Always connect the red alligator
clip to the battery FIRST, followed
by the black alligator clip to the
vehicle frame.
4. Never run the battery dead while
using the winch.
5. Never use a battery that is leaking
acid or is badly corroded.
Failure to comply with these and
other warnings could result in seri-
ous personal injury.
If holes are drilled into metal to route
the power cable, be sure to use rubber
grommets to protect the cable from
being cut on the sharp metal.
