SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (continued):
WARNING
- When re-spooling, ensure that Synthetic Rope spools in “under wind”
position with Synthetic Rope entering Winch Drum from bottom, not
top. To spool correctly, keep a slight load on Synthetic Rope while
pushing remote button to draw in Synthetic Rope. Walk toward Winch
while not allowing Synthetic Rope to slide through hands. Do not
let hands get within 12″ of Winch while re-spooling. Turn off Winch
and repeat procedure until only a few feet of Synthetic Rope remain.
Disconnect Remote Control and finish spooling by hand; rotate Winch
Drum by hand with Clutch disengaged. Keep hands clear of Fairlead
and Winch Drum while Winch is under power.
WARNING
- Never connect Synthetic Rope back onto itself.
