SPOOLING OUT
Freespooling is generally the quickest and easiest way to spool out wire rope. Before freespooling wire rope
out from the winch, power out enough rope to remove any tension the wire rope may be under before
disengaging the clutch. Now freespool by manually spooling out enough wire rope for the winching
operation.
CAUTION
TO AVOID INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE:
Wear heavy leather gloves when handling wire rope.
Never winch with less than 5 wraps of wire rope around
drum.
Personal Injury Hazard
Failure to observe these instructions could lead to minor or moderate injury.
Always wear leather gloves when handling wire rope
Never winch with less than 5 wraps of wire rope around the drum.
STRETCHING THE WIRE ROPE
The life of a wire rope is directly related to the care and use it receives. During its first use, a new wire rope
must be spooled onto its drum under a load of at least 500 lb. (227kg). Spool out the entire wire rope length
leaving 5 wraps on the drum, then power in the wire rope under a load of 500 lb. (227kg) or more. This will
stretch new wire rope and create a good wire wrap around the drum. Failure to do so may result in the outer
wire wraps drawing into the inner wraps, binding, and damaging the wire rope
.
WARNING
Moving Parts Entanglement Hazard
Failure to observe these instructions could lead to severe injury or death
.
ALWAYS
keep hands clear of the wire rope, hook loop, hook and fairlead opening
during installation, operation and when spooling in or out.
ALWAYS
use supplied hook strap whenever spooling the wire rope in or out, during
installation, or operation to avoid injury to hands or fingers.
