LEARN TO USE YOUR MILE MARKER WINCH: After winch has been installed, take some time and practice using it so you will be familiar with ALL
OPERATIONS. Periodically check the winch installation to ensure that all bolts are tight. To ensure proper operation, carefully inspect winch for
any damaged parts before operating.
KEEP WINCHING AREA CLEAR: Do not allow people to remain in the area during winching operations. Do not step over a taut steel cable or allow
anyone else to do so. Due to the possibility of steel cable failure, stand clear of any possible pathway. A snapped steel cable could cause winch
failure, injury or death. Do not reach over or across winch or steel cable while operating.
INSPECT STEEL CABLE AND EQUIPMENT FREQUENTLY: The steel cable should be inspected for damage that could reduce it’s breaking strength.
A frayed steel cable with broken strands should be replaced immediately. Always replace the steel cable with a steel cable that is rated to
sustain the load that the winch is capable of pulling. Any substitute must be IDENTICAL in strength, quality, lay and stranding to the Mile Marker
steel cable originally supplied.
WORKING AREA CONDITIONS: Keep the working area well lit. Do not use winch in the presence of flammable gases or liquids.
KEEP CHILDREN AWAY: Keep children away from working area. Never let children operate the winch.
DRESS PROPERLY: Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they can be caught in moving parts. Wear protective, electrically non
conductive clothes and non skid footwear when operating the winch. Wear restrictive hair covering to contain long hair.
USE HEAVY GLOVES: When handling or rewinding steel cable always use hand protection to eliminate the possibility of cuts caused by burrs &
slivers from broken strands.
DRUM: Always make sure that there are at least 5 complete turns of steel cable left on the drum before winching.
KEEP HANDS AND FINGERS CLEAR OF STEEL CABLE AND HOOK WHEN OPERATING WINCH: Do not put your finger through the hook when reeling
in the last few feet. If your finger should become trapped in the hook, you could lose your finger. Do not guide a steel cable under tension onto
the drum with your hand.
DO NOT HOOK THE STEEL CABLE BACK ONTO ITSELF: Hooking the steel cable back onto itself creates an excessive strain that could break
individual strands and weaken the entire steel cable.
KEEP PULLING DURATIONS AS SHORT AS POSSIBLE: The winch is designed for intermittent use and cannot be used in
constant duty applications. Do not pull more than one minute at or near rated load. If the motor becomes too hot to touch, stop and let it cool
off for a few minutes. If the motor stalls, cut off the power immediately.
DO NOT OVERLOAD: For your safety and efficient performance, always use this winch at or under its rated capacity. Do not use inappropriate
attachments in an attempt to exceed its rated capacity.
AVOID CONTINUOUS PULLS FROM EXTREME ANGLES: This will cause the steel cable to pile up at one end of the drum. The steel cable should be
as straight as possible to the direction of the object.
DO NOT OPERATE THE WINCH WITHOUT THE FAIRLEAD FITTED: Operator injury or winch damage can result if a fairlead is not installed.
STAY ALERT: Watch what you are doing. Use your common sense. Do not use this winch when you are tired, stressed or WHEN UNDER THE INFLUENCE
OF DRUGS, ALCOHOL OR MEDICATION.
DISCONNECT SWITCH: Unplug switch when not in use.
REPLACEMENT PARTS & ACCESSORIES: When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Usage of any other parts will void the warranty. Approved
accessories are available from your local distributor.
DO NOT force clutch. Rotate drum to align gears for freespool.
