Synthetic Rope Replacement
Always use a replacement rope that is correctly rated for the capacity of the
winch. Use the following method to replace the synthetic rope:
1). Disengage the clutch T-handle.
2). Spool out the entire synthetic rope, loosen the set screw and then remove
rope from the drum and replace the hawse fairlead if necessary.
3). Cut the lateral side of the end of the rope at a 45° angle and apply 2-3 wraps of
electrical tape to the end to hold cut strands in place.
4). Thread the rope through the hawse fairlead and under the drum, insert the
rope through the hole in the end of the drum with 15-20cm protruding out.
5). Place the protruding section of rope across the drum and tape the end down
to hold it in place. Lightly tighten the set screw to squeeze the rope. Do not
over tighten.
6). Fit the clevis hook to the thimble end of the rope and ensure the split/cotter
pin is correctly installed to secure the pin.
7). Wind the red section of rope onto the drum tightly and evenly (under hand
tension) to have a minimum of ten (10) wraps of wire rope on the drum.
8). Follow the procedure outlined in the previous sections “Rope Preparation”
(Page 19) and “Winching Procedures” (Page 10) to complete the installation of
the replacement wire rope.
9). A minimum of ten (10) wraps of synthetic rope around the drum is necessary
to support the rated load.
10). A red painted section of the rope warns the operator that there is 3 meters of
rope left on the drum. Do not wind out past this point.
Tips for Prolonging the Life of Synthetic Rope
1). Regular maintenance and periodically check the rope for damage or wear.
2). Protect your rope from rubbing against sharp or abrasive objects.
3). An aluminium hawse fairlead with rounded edges is highly recommended for
synthetic rope as it resists damage more easily than a roller fairlead.
4). Keep your synthetic rope clean and dry. To clean it after use in muddy
conditions, spool out the rope, rinse it with fresh water and let it dry
completely before re-spooling.
