Winch Care and Cleaning:
Do not direct very high-pressure water at
your winch. Use low-pressure (normal)
car wash soap and water to clean
your winch. With the remote control
disconnected and the protective boots
covering the remote control socket and
Power Button sockets, wash normally
with your vehicle. During winter exposure
to road salt, wash the winch as soon as
possible to avoid corrosion. Always wash
per the recommendations above.
Winch Care and Maintenance:
Battery Requirements:
Our powerful series wound motors
and class-leading low gear ratios
give fast line speeds with a “Battery
Friendly” low current draw that will
get the most winching time from your
battery's available charge state. A fully
charged battery and good connections
are essential to the proper operation of
your winch. The minimum requirement
for a 12 volt automotive DC battery
is 650 Cold Cranking Amps. Ask your
Quadratec sales representative for details
about heavy-duty batteries and terminals
for your vehicle.
General Maintenance:
All moving parts within the winch have
been lubricated at the factory using high
temperature lithium
grease. No internal
lubrication is required. Check battery
cables and electrical connections at
regular 3 month intervals to be certain
they are clean and tight at all connection
points.Inspect winch line before & after
each winching operation.
