WINCH GUIDE
Winch Maintenance and Service Safety
WARNING! Improper or lack of winch maintenance and service could lead to
SEVERE INJURY or DEATH. Always follow all winch instructions and warnings
in this manual.
1. Always inspect your winch before each use. Inspect for worn or
kinked winch cable. Also inspect for worn or loose parts including
mounting hardware.
2. Permit your winch motor to cool down prior to servicing your
winch.
3. Never work on your winch without first disconnecting the battery
connections to prevent accidental activation of the winch
4. For your safety, always replace POLARIS winch parts (including
the cable) with genuine POLARIS replacement parts available at
your authorized POLARIS dealer.
5. Some winch models use wire rope as the winch cable. Other
winches use a specially designed synthetic rope as the winch cable.
6. Never replace a synthetic-rope winch cable with a consumer-grade
polymer rope such as can be purchased in a hardware store.
Although they may look similar, they are NOT alike. A polymer
rope not designed for winch use will stretch and store excessive
energy when winching.
WARNING! Failure of a stretched rope under winching conditions will release
all of the stored energy. This will increase the chances of SEVERE INJURY or
DEATH.
