Walk toward the winch not allowing the cable/rope to slide through your hands. Do not let your hands
get within 12" (30 cm) of the winch while re-spooling. Turn off the winch and repeat the procedure until
a few feet of cable/rope are left. Disconnect the mini-rocker switch and finish spooling by rotating the
drum by hand with the clutch disengaged; set clutch to “Out.” Keep hands clear of the hawse and drum
while the winch is under power.
Once completed, set clutch back to “In” and do a few tests with the cable/rope in and out to make sure
operation is as expected.
Reattach the clevis hook to the synthetic cable/rope by adding the pin and reattach the cotter pin.
WARNING!
never operate winch with less than 5 wraps of rope around the drum. rope could come loose from the
drum, as the rope attachment to the drum is not designed to hold a load.
