tension by holding it
with a gloved hand,
slowly spool the rope
back onto the drum
guiding it into even
tight rows. Do not let
the line slide through
your hands! Walk the
rope to the winch and
stop when necessary
to retrieve more line
and straighten and tighten the rows. Repeat this process
until the winch hook is the same distance as the full length
of the remote control from the winch (Approximately 12
feet). Attach the loop of the hook strap to the winch hook.
Hold the attached hook strap between the thumb and fore-
finger to keep tension on the winch line and walk the line
towards the fairlead. To prevent serious injury, when the
hook gets close to the fairlead, make sure you are holding
onto the winch strap keeping all fingers and limbs away
from the fairlead/hook area. If you do not have the hook
strap, use a length of cord or something similar.
Step Sixteen:
Disconnect Remote and Replace Solenoid Cap
Once the winch line is secure back on the winch, unhook
the remote control and carefully store in a safe, dry place.
Replace the rubber cap back on the solenoid box.
