WARNING - A minimum of five wraps of cable around the drum
barrel is necessary for pulling and holding the rated load. The
cable clamp is not designed to hold the load without 5 wraps of
cable around the barrel.
WARNING - Keep yourself and others a safe distance to the side
of the cable when under tension.
WARNING
– The wire rope may break before the motor stalls.
For heavy loads at or near rated capacity, use a pulley
block/snatch block to reduce the load on the wire rope.
WARNING -Never step over a cable, or near a cable under load.
WARNING -
Don’t move the vehicle to pull a load (towing) on the
winch cable. This could result in cable breakage.
WARNING-Disconnect the remote control and battery leads
when not in use.
WARNING-
Do not exceed maximum pull rating. Avoid “shock
loads” by using the control switch intermittently to take up the
slack in the wire rope. “Shock loads” can far exceed the rate
capacity for the wire rope and drum.
WARNING- Do not exceeds maximum line pull ratings shown on
the tables.
WARNING-When re-spooling the cable, ensure that the cable
spools in the under-wind position with the cable entering the
drum from the bottom, not the top. To re-spool correctly, and
while wearing gloves, keep a slight load on the cable while
pushing the remote button to draw in the cable. Walk toward the
winch not allowing the cable to slide through your hands. Do not
let your hands get within 12
ą
of the winch while respooling. Turn
off the winch and repeat the procedure until a few feet of cable
is left. Disconnect the remote control and finish spooling by
