Advice: The best way to become familiar with the winch is to make a few test runs
before the actual use of the winch. Plan the test run in advance. Be careful with noise:
Learn to distinguish the noise when pulling a light load from that of a heavy load. It
will not take long and you will gain confidence in dealing with the winch.
• The clutch is switched to free-wheeling by rotating the control lever into the
„FREESPOOL“ position.
• Grasp the rope at the rope hook, unwind the rope to the desired length and
attach to the object to be moved (Observe the safety instructions!).
• Press the control lever into the „ENGAGED“ position.
• Remove the protective cover of the socket.
• Insert the plug of the remote control into the socket.

• Never press the control lever of the winch under load or during operation. This
may destroy the winch! This lever is only there to ensure a manual unwinding of
the rope without a load.
• In order to avoid serious accidents, remove the remote control after work and
reinstall the protective cover.
ASSEMBLY
• Mount the electric winch on the vehicle with screws, nuts and locking washers.
• Align the winch at a suitable mounting steel plate properly on the front or rear
part of the vehicle, which is firmly connected to the vehicle frame. Please note
that the winch is designed for horizontal pulling and not for vertical lifting.
