Trim knob
– Allows small increases or decreases in the level wind speed.
Limit switches
– These are buttons mounted in the frame at each side of the reel. When the level wind
hits a limit switch the shuttle will change direction and continue winding back along the drum. If both
buttons are pushed at the same time the level wind will stop until one is released. This is a protection
against one of the buttons becoming jammed.
Clutch
– The level wind motor may be disengaged by pulling out on the clutch wheel located at the end
of the level wind drive shaft. Once disengaged this wheel can be spun by hand to manually advance the
level wind. The motor is reengaged by lining up the clutch pins and pushing inward to lock the wheel in
place.
Level Wind Calibration
The level wind is calibrated at the factory and should require no further adjustment. Should recalibration
be necessary instructions can be found in the winch manual.

Free-Wheeling Spool
In many situations, the vehicle may pull the tether directly off the drum. Disengage the drum drive clutch
to reduce the back tension.
