General handling
!
use chocks for the vehicle‘s wheels when you‘re at a tilt
!
the user of the winch must ensure that the vehicle is secured. It must be ensured in all
circumstances that the vehicle can be immediately slowed down in the event of unforeseeable
occurrences (e.g. rope break of the winch).
!
operate the winch at least 10x a year so the winches remain functional. (approx.2-5m winding down
and winding up without load).
!
abseiling under load must be avoided in all circumstances. It work´s against the brake, the effect is
like moving a car with a handbrake put on. The drum brake of the winch automatically brakes when
you drain the load. That will cause damaged on your winch. When operating with synthetic ropes,
these can take damage and tear.
!
the winching operation should be kept as short as possible.
!
never cut, weld or modify any parts of the winches or rope.
!
a minimum of five winch rows on the drum is necessary to pull and maintain the nominal load.
!
do not move the vehicle to pull (tow) a load on the winch rope. This could cause the rope to snap
and damage the winch.
!
avoid „shock loads“ by gradually using the control switch to avoid slack rope. The rope should
always be under tension. „Shock loads“ can far exceed the nominal capacity for the rope and drum.
!
do not exceed the maximum traction given on the description.
!
in frequent water crossings, the service interval becomes shorter. Consume with your specialist
workshop.
!
only use original horntools spare and wear parts.
!
never use the winch if you‘re not sure it works correctly.
!
a winch must be installed by a specialist company, if not installed properly, the winch can be
damaged and there is a risk for body and life.
!
if the winch is extremely heated, avoid a water passage, this can damage your winch, let the winch
cool down before.
!
only use the winch periodically. Allow the winches to cool between applications. Start the next
winching operation if the winch is maximum hand warm (about 30-40 degrees Celsius).
