Operation
FREESPOOL Operation
WARNING
Moving the lever into FREESPOOL while
there is a load on the wire rope will cause
sudden, uncontrolled loss of load, which
can result in injury and damage.
When the control lever is moved into the
FREESPOOL
position, the winch drum is disengaged from the gear train.
The brake is also released.
FREESPOOL
operation allows
the wire rope to be pulled from the winch drum by hand.
FREESPOOL Drag Adjustment
The
FREESPOOL
drag adjustment knob determines the
resistance to rotation of the drum when in
FREESPOOL
.
The resistance to rotation is correct when the drum can
be rotated by hand, but the drum will not rotate more
than one-half revolution freely. A knob on the right side
of the frame (see Figure 2) can be used to adjust the
FREESPOOL
drag.
Turn the knob clockwise to increase the drag, or turn it
counterclockwise to decrease the drag. See Figure 9.
The direction lever determines the direction of the winch
drum rotation. By moving the lever to the
IN
or
OUT
position,
a sliding gearset on the clutch shaft engages either the
LINE-IN
gears or the
LINE-OUT
gears. This will give you
either forward or reverse.
NOTE: Never leave the direction lever in the centered
position. The lever should ALWAYS be as far into either
the IN or OUT positions as possible.
When the direction lever is pushed into the
IN
position,
the
LINE-IN
gears are engaged. To start reeling wire rope
in, pull the power lever into the
POWER-IN/OUT
position.
When the direction lever is pushed into the
OUT
position,
the
LINE-OUT
gears are engaged. To start paying wire rope
out, pull the power lever into the
POWER-IN/OUT
position.
