Step 3
Connect Black 2 GA battery lead to the negative motor terminal located on the bottom of the motor
and also connect the Black 14 GA ground lead from the solenoid pack to the same negative motor
terminal.
Step 4
Connect the other terminal end of the Black 2 GA battery lead to the negative battery terminal.
If longer wiring harness is required then purchase KWA14607
Step 5
Remove the dust cover on the plug receptacle and insert the plug end of the handheld pendant
switch. The plug end is keyed and will fit easily onto the socket only one way.
DO NOT FORCE.
Step 6
Lift and turn the freespool clutch handle to the Disengage position
(See FIGURE 12)
. Pull 5 feet of
rope off the drum. Return the freespool clutch handle back to Engaged position. Activate the Winch
cable in and out by momentarily pressing the handheld pendant switch to check drum rotation
direction. The switch is labeled “IN” for winching in and “OUT” for winching out. When released
the switch will automatically go to the off position.
IF THIS DOES NOT OCCUR THEN REMOVE THE
HAND HELD PLUG FROM THE RECEPTACLE.
If the drum rotates in the wrong direction then check the trouble shooting area in this manual or call
for assistance 800-533-7372. or contact [email protected]
Step 7
You are now ready to winch. Practice winching operations by freespooling cable out and winching in
under low loads. Make sure all wraps are wound on tight and close against the previous wrap. Plan
some tests in advance and learn to watch and listen. Recognize the sound of a light steady pull, a
heavy pull and sounds caused by load jerking or shifting. You will gain confidence.
ALWAYS WEAR
SAFETY GLASSES, LEATHER GLOVES AND USE THE HAND SAVER STRAP (FIGURE 4).
Step 2
Follow electrical connection
diagram
(FIGURE 9).
Bolt the
circuit breaker to the terminal end
of the Red 2 GA battery lead that
is factory connected to the sealed
solenoid switching pack. Now
connect the circuit breaker to the
positive battery terminal.
