Safety for operators and ground personnel is of prime
concern. Always take necessary precautions to insure
the safety of others as well as yourself. The operator
should have a thorough knowledge of the entire
machine’s performance capabilities, and operate the
prime mover and the winch with care and concern for
the equipment, and the safety of all personnel. The fol-
lowing recommendations are offered as a general safety
guide. Local rules and regulations will also apply.

1. The BRADEN BP200 is neither designed nor intended

for use or application to equipment used in the lifting
or moving of persons.

2. Inspect rigging and winch at the beginning of each

work shift. Defects should be corrected immediately.

3. Keep equipment in good operating condition. Perform

scheduled servicing and adjustments listed in the
“Preventive Maintenance” section of this manual.

4. An equipment warm-up procedure is recommended

for all start-ups and essential at ambient temperatures

below +40oF (+5oC). Refer to "Warm-up Procedure"
listed in the “Preventive Maintenance” section of this
manual.

5. Be certain any equipment attached to the cable is

either lowered to the ground or blocked securely (i.e.
NO LOAD on the cable drum) before servicing,
adjusting or repairing the winch.

6. Before operating the winch, be sure ALL safety proce-

dures and equipment for the vehicle the winch is
mounted in are properly followed and/or in place.

7. Be sure personnel are clear of the work area

BEFORE operating the winch.

8. Read all warning and caution tags provided for safe

operation and service of the winch and become famil-
iar with the operation and function of all controls
before operating the winch.

9. Never operate winch controls unless you are properly

positioned at the operators station and you are sure
personnel are clear of the work area.

10. Assure that personnel who are responsible for hand

signals are clearly visible and that the signals to be
used are thoroughly understood by everyone.

11. Ground personnel should stay in view of the opera-

tor and clear of the winch drum. Do not allow any-
one near a winch line under tension. A safe dis-
tance of at least one and one-half (1-1/2) times the

length of the unspooled wire rope should be main-
tained.

12. The winch clutch may disengage and drop or lose

control of a load if it is not fully engaged at the
beginning of a lift or pull. The winch operator must
visually determine that the clutch is fully engaged
before lifting or pulling a load. Check the “Winch
Engaged” indicator light to make sure it is illuminat-
ed before beginning a lift or pull. The clutch must
be in its fully engaged position before this light will
illuminate.

13. Never attempt to handle wire rope when the hook

end is not free. Keep all parts of body and clothing
clear of the cable rollers, cable entry area of fair-
leads and winch drum.

14. Install guarding to prevent personnel from getting

any part of body or clothing caught at a point where
the cable is wrapped onto the drum or drawn
through the guide rollers, or where any rotating shaft
is exposed.

15. Install switches or valves that will shut off power to

the winch, in locations where they can be reached
by anyone entangled in the wire rope before being
drawn into the winch or any “pinch point”.

16. “Deadman” controls which automatically shut off

power to the winch whenever the operator leaves
his station, should be installed whenever practical.

17. Do not exceed the maximum pressure, psi (kPa) or

flow, gpm (lpm) stated in the winch specifications.

18. Operate the winch line speeds to match job condi-

tions.

19. Leather gloves should be used when handling wire

rope.

20. Never attempt to handle wire rope when the hook

end is not free.
