SHOULD THE WINCH stop operating unexpectedly, check the indicators
on the control panel. The three indicators will show if either the limits are
exceeded, or the line has gone slack. The indicators merely inform the
operator what stopped the winch. They DO NOT indicate a failure. If none
of the indicators have been triggered, something may have failed.
