12. Stay well away from the winch, steel cable and load when under
tension. A cable that breaks under tension can whiplash and
inflict death or a serious injury.
12.1 Use a winch rope dampener to absorb the cable’s energy
should it break.
13. Secure the load after moving it with the winch. Do not rely on the
winch to hold a load in position for an extended period of time.
Never leave the load unattended.
14. Apply blocks to a vehicle while connecting and disconnecting
the winch cable.
15. Observe the spooling of the cable onto the drum. Side pulls can
cause the cable to pileup at one end of the drum. To correct
uneven stacking, spool out that section of cable and move it to
the other end of the drum and continue winching. Uneven
spooling causing cable pileup can interfere with the winch tie
rods causing damage to the winch.
16. Do not use the winch to transport animals or people.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING!
Do not touch or handle a live tool with any part of your
body that is wet or damp. Wet skin reduces resistance to electrical
current, increasing the danger of a serious or fatal shock.
WARNING!
To reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that the plug
is connected to a properly
grounded receptacle.
1.
Disconnect tool from power source before cleaning, servicing,
changing parts/accessories or when not in use.
2. Protect yourself against electric shocks when working on
electrical equipment. Avoid body contact with grounded
surfaces. There is an increased chance of electrical shock if your
body is grounded.
3. Do not expose the tool to rain or wet conditions. Water entering
a tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
4. Do not disconnect the power cord in place of using the ON/OFF
switch on the tool. This will prevent an accidental start-up when
the power cord is plugged into the power supply.
