Brake-Off . Depress the button and
move the lever toward the opera-
tor, hydraulically releasing the
winch brake. Partial brake release
may be achieved by slowly moving
the control lever in the Brake-Off direction. The amount
of brake release is proportional to the distance the lever
is moved.
Full brake release is achieved by mov-
ing the lever fully toward the operator
into the lock position. With the brake
released, the tractor may drive away
from the load. Always return the lever
to the Brake-On position when the
operation is complete.
Freespool . Depress
the button and move
the lever fully away
from the operator.
When Freespool is
selected, the cable
drum drive gears are
disengaged, allowing
wire rope to be easily pulled off the cable drum by hand.
The brake is automatically released in Freespool.
NOTE: Freespool is to be used for handling wire
rope by hand ONLY. Do NOT attempt to release
a load with Freespool, or to engage the gear train
while the cable drum is rotating or while the trac-
tor is in motion.
