Battery Requirements:
Our powerful series
wound motors and
class-leading low gear
ratios give fast line speeds with a “Bat-
tery Friendly” low current draw that will
get the most winching time from your
battery's available charge state. A fully
charged battery and good connections
are essential to the proper operation of
your winch. The minimum requirement
for a 12 volt automotive DC battery is 650
Cold Cranking Amps. Ask your
Quadratec sales representative for details
about heavy-duty batteries and terminals
for your vehicle.
General Maintenance:
All moving parts within the winch have
been lubricated at the factory using high
temperature lithium grease. No internal
lubrication is required. Check battery ca-
bles and electrical connections at regular
3 month intervals to be certain they are
clean and tight at all connection points.
Inspect winch line before & after each
winching operation.
Winch Care and Cleaning:
Do not direct very high-pressure water at
your winch. Use low-pressure (normal)
car wash soap and water to clean your
winch. With the remote control discon-
nected and the protective boots covering
the remote control socket and power but-
ton sockets, wash normally with your ve-
hicle. During winter exposure to road
salt, wash the winch as soon as possible
to avoid corrosion. Always wash per the
recommendations above.
