Motor
For optimum performance and maximum durability of parts, provide recommended air
supply as measured at motor inlet. Refer to Table 2, “Specifications,” on page 4. The
air motor should be installed as near as possible to compressor or air receiver.
Limit Switch
Use two people to make adjustments. Pre-set limit switch settings prevent winch
wire rope payout and haul-in by stopping air flow to the winch motor when a defined
set point has been reached. It is the owner’s and operator’s responsibility to adjust
winch operating limits prior to using winch.
To adjust set points:
Follow instructions in the order they appear for limit switch adjustment (
use two
people to make adjustments
). Refer to Dwg. MHP2688 on page 11,

Haul-In:
1. Remove cap from limit switch cover.
2. Partially unscrew center nut.
3.
PAYOUT
: Rotate (#1) screw counterclockwise while slowly paying out until winch
shuts off.
4.
HAUL-IN
: Rotate (#2) screw clockwise while slowly hauling in until winch shuts
off.
5. Tighten center nut.
6. Reinstall cap on limit switch cover and tighten.
WARNING
• Ensure limit switch setpoints are established and operating properly before
using winch.
Initial Winch Operating Checks
Winches are tested for proper operation prior to leaving the factory. Before the winch
is placed into service the following initial operating checks should be performed.
1. When first running the motor inject a small amount of light oil into the inlet
connection to provide initial lubrication.
2. Check oil level in motor, reduction gear assembly and disc brake are correct. Top
off levels as required before operation as described in the “LUBRICATION”
section.
3. Operate winch in both directions with no load for one to two minutes.
4. New Drum Brake Band Lining Run-in Procedure: All new drum brake band linings
require a ‘run-in’ period. Operate the winch without load in the payout direction
while gradually applying the brake. Allow the brake to slip for approximately one
minute. Winch motor may stall as drum brake band lining fully engages. Do not
allow brake to overheat.
5. Check operation of brakes. Adjust if necessary as described in the
“MAINTENANCE” section.
6. Check operation of limit switches, locking mechanisms and all safety devices
when equipped.
7. Check foundation mounting fasteners are secure.
8. Install drum guard when provided.
For winches that have been in storage, the following start-up procedures are
required.
1. Give the winch an inspection conforming to requirements of “Winches Not in
Regular Use” in the “INSPECTION” section on page 9.
2. Pour a small amount of ISO VG 32 (SAE 10W) oil in motor inlet port.
3. Operate motor for 10 seconds in both directions to flush out any impurities.
4. The winch is now ready for normal use.
OPERATION
Safety Summary
The following warnings and operating instructions have been adapted in part from
American National (Safety) Standards ASME B30.7 and ANSI A10.22, and are
intended to avoid unsafe operating practices which might lead to injury or property
damage.
1. Prior to use, inspect and test the personnel lifting system to the requirements of
ANSI A10.22 Section 13 (Inspection and Tests). The winch operator shall be
instructed in the operation of this winch and the personnel lifting system per
ANSI A10.22 Section 5 (Operation of Hoist).
Winch only:
Refer to ‘System Inspections and Testing’ procedures in the
“INSPECTION” section on page 8.
NOTICE
• Refer to Product Safety Information Manual for essential safety information
not covered in this manual.
• There are other components required to complete the system. It is the user’s
responsibility to supply all other components necessary to properly complete
the lifting system in accordance with the regulations that pertain to the lifting
application.
2. Installation of the winch must be specially arranged and approved for personnel
handling as a component in a Personnel Handling System as described and
defined in ANSI A10.22. Refer to the “INSTALLATION” section on page 6. All
bolts and foundations for winch attachment must have a higher load carrying
capacity rating than the maximum capacity of the winch.
WARNING
• Operate this winch ONLY if wire rope is installed to come off the drum for
overwind operation. Refer to Dwg. MHP0661.
• Operation of this winch in a safe manner, as part of a Personnel Lifting
System, requires that supervisors, operators, and personnel being transported
be thoroughly instructed in the potential dangers involved and the safety
procedures established to minimize the risks of accident, injury and property
damage.
• Do not transport personnel and materials at the same time. Safe operation,
according to established standards, require that personnel and materials are to
be transported separately.
• Visual inspections of the winch and entire Personnel Lifting System must be
conducted by designated personnel instructed in safety, operation and
maintenance of this product before using the winch to transport personnel. Any
visual indication of damage must be inspected, repaired and actions
documented in accordance with component manufacturer’s instructions to
ensure the safety of personnel is not compromised.
To prevent wire rope “line run” ensure a weight greater than the total weight of the
longest “wire rope payout to sheave’' length is attached to the end of the wire rope.
Training
Program
The employer shall provide and implement a training program for all supervisors and
employees engaged in the operation of raising, lowering or suspending personnel
