3.

 

Lift the rubber seal at the left side of the winch housing. Taking the remote-control unit, insert 
the plug at the end of the cable into the socket on the right side of the winch housing labelled 
“Remote control.”

 

4.

 

Lay down the remote control at a safe spot until the winch is ready for operation.

 

 

Permanent wiring:

 

1.

 

Attach the over-current protection to the positive (+/red) terminal of your battery, using the bat-
tery terminal clamp bolt.

 

2.

 

Choose a route for the cable from the place of your vehicle where the winch is to be mounted 
to or where it is connected to the battery. This route must be safe, out of the range of moving 
parts and road debris, and must not present any danger for the cable being damaged during 
vehicle operation or maintenance. For example, the cables can be laid under the vehicle and 
be attached by appropriate means to its frame. Nevertheless, do not attach it to the exhaust 
system, drive shaft, emergency brake cable, fuel line, or any other components which may cre-
ate damage to the wiring through heat or motion, or create a fire hazard.

 

3.

 

If drilling through the bumper or any part of the body to route the cables, be sure to install a 
rubber grommet in the hole to prevent fraying of the wires at that point.

 

4.

 

Now lay the power cable from the point where the winch will be used to the battery. Follow the 
precautions discussed above.

 

5.

 

Remove the red clamp handle and attach the red cable to the over-current protector mounted 
to the positive (+/red) terminal of the battery.

 

6.

 

Remove the black clamp handle and attach the black cable to the frame of the vehicle to create 
a secure earthing.

 

 

 Warning!

 

 

Always connect red to red (positive to positive) and black to the vehicle frame and create an 
earthing if using the car battery.

 

 

Never use the winch or other accessories up to the point of total exhaustion of the battery. This 
could permanently damage the battery!

 

 

You may keep the engine of the vehicle running while using the winch to continually recharge 
the battery. However, be extremely cautious when working on a vehicle the engine of which is 
running.

 

 

Do  not  use  any  dirty,  corroded,  or  leaking  battery.  The  acid  can  burn  your  skin,  causing  an 
injury.

 

 

Always wear approved eye protection when working on or with a battery.

 

 

Mounting the winch

 

 

This winch is designed to be mounted temporarily to trailer hitch mounting bracket. Nevertheless, it can 
be mounted permanently, too.

 

 

Permanent mounting:

 

1.

 

Select a mounting spot at the bumper of your vehicle, truck bed, boat trailer, or other suitable 
location. 

Note:

 The winch can generate 907

 

kg (2000

 

lbs) pulling force. Make sure that the spot 

chosen can withstand such a force. You may need to use steel reinforcement plates or weld on 
additional bracing, depending on the mounting spot chosen.

 

2.

 

Align the winch with the spot chosen and mark the position of the bottom holes for drilling.

 

3.

 

At these positions, drill four holes into the mounting spot.

 

4.

 

Using hardened steel bolts of a diameter of at least 0.95

 

cm (⅜″), mount the winch to the spot 

chosen.

 

 

Temporary mounting:

 

1.

 

Attach  the  three plate stud bolts to the adapter plate, using the supplied  nuts. Tighten them 
firmly.

 

2.

 

Slide the heads of the plate studs into the keyhole slots on the back of the winch.

 

3.

 

Attach the winch/adapter plate assembly to your trailer hitch by inserting the trailer hitch ball 
through the shaped hole in the adapter plate.
