Ensure that the over-center bolts are tight enough to prevent the handle from engaging. If
they are not tight enough, damage to the gears and motor will result.
5.4. Hand Winch Operation
Æ
When equipped with a Hand Winch:
Before using the hand winch, ensure that:
• the cable anchor on the winch drum is tight.
• all cable clamps are secure.
• the lift cable is seated in cable pulley.
• the cable is in good condition, if damaged, replace it immediately.
• there is a minimum of 3 cable wraps on the winch drum when the conveyor fully lowered.
To operate:
1. Turn the winch handle to raise and lower the conveyor. The winch must make a clicking sound when raising
the conveyor. If clicking sound stops, retain grip on handle, lower the conveyor fully and repair winch.
2. When lowering, if the cable becomes slack before conveyor is in full down position, this indicates that the
track shoe is stuck. To correct the problem, reverse the winch and raise the conveyor until the cable is taut
and the track slides normally. Do not lubricate the winch brake discs.
3. After lowering the conveyor, always tighten the brake lock by turning the winch handle clockwise at least
two clicks.
4. After lowering, rotate the winch handle until cable has light tension.
5.5. Hydraulic Winch Operation
Æ
When equipped with a hydraulic winch:
Before using the hydraulic winch, ensure that:
• the cable anchor on the winch drum is tight.
• all cable clamps are secure.
• the lift cable is seated in cable pulley.
• the cable is in good condition, if damaged, replace it immediately.
• there is a minimum of 3 cable wraps on the winch drum when the conveyor is fully lowered.
• the hydraulic hoses are free from leaks, binding, flattening, kinks, or wear.
To operate:
1.
When connecting to a tractor:
Wipe the hydraulic hose couplers clean.
Dirt in the hydraulic system can damage the winch motor and can cause failure of the
system.
2.
When connecting to a tractor:
