14. Activate the Wireless Remote by pressing
the WIRELESS button until the BLUE LED
is lit up. Press IN or OUT to operate
winch. To turn off the Remote, Press the
WIRELESS button for approximately 3

⚠
WARNING
Only operate the winch while the winch, line, and load are in view. Make sure that there are no
bystanders nearby.
15. When it is safe to do so, use the power switch on the
pendant controller to retract the rope, and winch the
item as desired. Do not power the hook all the way into
the fairlead to prevent damage.
16. Do not operate the winch at extreme angles. Do not
exceed the angles shown below for a roller fairlead. For
a hawse fairlead, the angle should be as close to
straight as possible.
17. If the object to be pulled must be pulled at an angle in
relation to the winch, use a pulley (sold separately) and an
anchor point directly in front of the winch, as shown in the
following picture.
⚠
WARNING
Stop the winch and release tension on the rope before moving the cloth or canvas placed on it.
18. Discontinue use of the winch if the battery becomes weak or run down.
19. You may wish to keep the engine running while using this winch to continually recharge the battery.
However, exercise extreme caution when working around a running vehicle and ONLY operate a
vehicle in an outdoor area.
20. When finished pulling the load, reverse the direction of the winch just enough to release tension on
the rope so that you can unfasten the hook from the load and reel in the rope.
Duty Cycle (Duration of Use):
Avoid damage to the winch by not winching for more than the prescribed duty cycle time.
The Duty Cycle defines the amount of time, within a 15 minute period, during which a winch can operate
at its maximum capacity without overheating.
