WINCH CABLE CARE
WARNING
Use of worn or damaged cable could lead to sudden failure and SEVERE
INJURY.
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 person.
1. Always inspect your winch before each use. Inspect for worn or loose parts
including mounting hardware. Never use the winch if any part needs repair or
replacement.
2. Always inspect your winch cable before each use. Inspect for worn or kinked
winch cable.
A kinked winch cable made of wire rope
is shown at right. Even after being
“straightened out,” this cable has
already been permanently and severely
damaged. Promptly discontinue use of
a winch cable in this condition.
A kinked winch cable made of wire rope
that has been “straightened out” is
shown at right. Even though it may look
usable, the cable has been permanently
and severely damaged. It can no longer
transmit the load that it could prior to
kinking. Promptly discontinue use of a
winch cable in this condition.
A winch cable made of synthetic rope
should be inspected for signs of fraying.
Replace the cable if fraying is observed
(shown below). Promptly discontinue
use of a winch cable in this condition.
Also replace the winch cable if there are
fused or melted fibers. Such an area of
the synthetic rope will be stiff and
appear smooth or glazed. Promptly
discontinue use of a winch cable in this
condition.
