Inspect the winch cable before and after every
usage. If frayed wires, nicks, kinks, worn spots,
breaks or any other sign of deterioration or dam-
age is found, immediate replacement is mandatory
before further usage. If the semitrailer is going to
be out in the weather for any length of time, it is
advisable to oil the winch cable to prevent untimely
rusting and deterioration of the cable.
Inspect the winch mechanism thoroughly each
week to insure safe, efficient operation.
WARNING
DO NOT HANDLE THE WINCH CABLE
WHEN THE WINCH IS IN THE ENGAGE
POSITION. HANDS OR CLOTHING
COULD GET CAUGHT IN THE CABLE
AND BE PULLED INTO THE SPOOL
