GEAR SELECTION
WARNING
Attempting to shift the winch while the rope is under
tension is dangerous and can result in injuries or
death. Make sure the winch rope is not in tension
before shifting the winch between gears.
Your winch is equipped with two different gear
settings. It will either be in the “LOCK” position or the
“FREE” position.
The free position is designed to allow you to “free-
spool” the winch when you want to pull the rope or
cable out faster than what it would allow while in the
lock position.
To shift between the free position and the lock position
simply turn the shifting knob located on the side of the
winch either clockwise or counter-clockwise
depending on the desired mode.
