WARNING
• The winch is not a balanced load. Use extreme care when
lifting winch into position.
3.
Mount winch in a position that allows accessibility to the
gear reducer drain, level and breather plugs. Also ensure
there is adequate space for removal of the brake motor fan
guard for brake adjustment and maintenance.
4.
When a lead sheave is used, it should be aligned with the
center of the drum. The diameter of the lead sheave must be
at least 18 times the diameter of the wire rope.
5.
Maintain a fleet angle between the sheave and winch of no
more than 1-1/2 degrees. For every inch of drum length, the
lead sheave must be at least 1.6 feet (0.5 m) from the drum.
6.
Make sure the mounting surface is flat to within 1/16 in.
(1.6 mm). Shim winch if necessary.
7.
Refer to chart for correct mounting bolt sizes. Mounting
bolts must be Grade 8 or better. Use self-locking nuts or
nuts with lockwashers.
8.
Tighten mounting bolts evenly and torque to specifications
provided in torque chart.
9.
For transportation the winches are supplied non-vented. A
standard socket head plug is installed in the gear reducer
and is marked by a plastic cap in place of the breather plug.
The breather plug accompanies the winch in a poly bag.
After final installation, install the breather plug in place of
the plastic capped plug. Always ensure vent is at highest
location on the gear reducer. In addition, the oil level
should be checked by removing the red painted oil level
plug. The oil level is correct when the surface of the oil is
level with the lowest point of the threaded hole.
Prior to installing the winch, carefully inspect it for possible
shipping damage.
Winches are supplied from the factory with the correct grade
and quantity of lubricating oil. Before operation check oil levels
and adjust as necessary. Use the proper type of oil as
recommended in the “LUBRICATION” section.
CAUTION
• Owners and users are advised to examine specific, local or
other regulations, including American National Standards
Institute and/or OSHA Regulations which may apply to a
particular type of use of this product before installing or
putting winch to use.
Mounting
Care must be taken when moving, positioning or mounting the
winch. When lifting the winch ensure it is properly balanced.
Determine the weight of your winch by referring to the
“SPECIFICATIONS” section. Lift the winch 3 to 4 inches (75
to 100 mm) off the ground. Verify winch is balanced and secure
before continuing lift.
1.
Mount the winch on a rigid surface which is capable of
supporting the winch and will prevent deflecting or
distortion of the winch under maximum load.
2.
Choose a site that uses as short a wire rope as practical and
allows an unimpeded flow of air to the motor and gear
reducer.
