Winch Care
and Cleaning:
Do not direct very
high-pressure water
at your winch. Use
low-pressure (nor-
mal) car wash soap
and water to clean
your winch. With the
remote control disconnected and the protective boot cov-
ering the remote control socket, 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.
Battery Requirements:
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 cer-
tain they are clean and tight at all connection points.
Inspect winch line before & after each winching operation.
