WINCH OPERATION
If your vehicle is equipped with a winch, please read this manual before use to
understand and be familiar with the relevant safety precautions and operating
instructions.
!
WARNING
The user must read and understand the operating instructions
and warnings of this operation owner's manual. If the
instructions or warnings are not followed, serious property
damage or personal injury may occur.
• It is strictly prohibited for people under the age of 16 years old to use this
equipment.
• Before operation or during use, pay attention to the safety and environmental
conditions within the operating range of the winch.
• Do not overload. Ensure that all equipment used meets the maximum rope
pull force rating. We recommend using an optional pulley block, double rope
using a pulley block double rope will help reduce the load on the winch, rope
and battery. When using a double rope, the rated value of the pulley block
should be two times the rope pull of the winch rating.
• Under heavy loads, do not operate the winch for long periods of time. Electric
winches are only designed for intermittent use and, should not be used under
constant load. Do not pull for more than one minute. If the winch motor feels
very hot, stop the winch and let it cool down for a few minutes.
• The rope end cannot bear the full load when fully extended, the rope must
rotate around the drum at least 5 times.
• Avoid pulling from extreme angles, as this will cause the rope to be rolled on
one end of the barrel and may damage the rope or winch.
• Note that the rope-drawing capacity of the winch is the maximum rope-
drawing capacity of the first layer, do not operate the winch with overload
capacity past this amount of rope.
• Never hook the rope back to itself, otherwise the rope will become damaged.
Use trunk protection protector.
• Before operation, make sure that the winch is firmly installed on the vehicle
or bracket.
• Before moving heavy objects, check the rope to prevent kinks and uneven
wire layers. The rope slack must be properly tightened under a weight of
about 220 lbs. (100Kg).
• When pulling the load, be sure to place a protective layer on the wire rope
near the hook end. This will prevent the possibility of breaking the rope and
help prevent serious injuries and damage.
