MAINTENANCE
The steel cable deserves and requires the most attention as it is the means by which
the load is able to move up and down. The proper cable for this application is
supplied, but it is up to you to inspect and maintain it regularly.
(1) Keep the cable lubricated periodically to avoid oxidation. Any light duty oil or silicone
based lubricant will do just fine.
(2)
Lubricate the pulleys frequently to prevent premature wear. The same lubricant used
on the cable will be sufficient for this application.
(3)
If the cable shows any sign of fraying, wear, or deformation – order a replacement from
your authorized Applied Electronics dealer or distributor.
(4)
Inspect the ball and shank that is swaged to the top end of the cable. See that the
cable always remains flush to the outside of the ball.
(5)
Always replace any bent or broken parts immediately. These are available and should
be purchased through the Applied Electronics dealer network.
(6)
Individually push the 2” and the 3” tubes to one side in both directions and check the
gap between the tube and the bushing material that surrounds the tube at the top of
each larger tube. If the gap ever becomes greater than .035”, then new material
should be ordered to replace the worn material. This gap measurement can be
handled quickly and effectively with a standard feeler gauge.
(7)
To replace the cable, follow the cable routing diagram in fig. (A) page 7. Be sure to
keep the tubes in the same alignment orientation. Termination of the cable to the
winch should be done as shown in fig. (B) page 7.
(8)
In order to insure extended winch performance, occasionally grease gears, reel shaft
and handle threads. An occasional drop of oil on drive shaft bearings is also
recommended.
