WARNING
Never use a recovery strap when winching due to the excessive energy that
can be released if the winch cable breaks. This can result in SEVERE INJURY
or DEATH. See the Shock Loading section on page 90.
• Never hook the winch cable back onto itself. This will damage the winch
cable and may result in winch cable failure.
WARNING
Replace the winch cable at the first sign of damage to prevent SEVERE
INJURY or DEATH in the event of failure. For your safety, always replace
POLARIS winch parts (including the cable) with genuine POLARIS
replacement parts available at your authorized POLARIS dealer, or other
qualified dealer.
• If possible, keep the winch cable aligned with the centerline of the
winching vehicle. This will help the spooling of the winch cable and reduce
the load on the fairlead.
• If freeing a stuck vehicle by attaching to a tree, use an item such as a tow
strap to avoid damaging the tree during winch operation. Sharp cables and
chains can damage and even kill trees. Please remember to Tread
Lightly® (treadlightly.org).
• Before operating the winch, be sure that the safety latch on the winch
cable hook is fully seated when the load is attached.
• Never operate your winch with a damaged hook or latch. Always replace
damaged parts before using the winch.
5. Never remove the hook strap from the hook.
6. Release the winch clutch and pull out the winch cable.
7. Pulling out as much cable as possible maximizes the winch’s pulling
capacity. Always be sure that at least five (5) full turns of winch cable are
wrapped around the winch drum at all times. The friction provided by this
wrapped cable allows the drum to pull on the winch cable and move the load.
