Winch Installation
NOTE: The winch must be mounted to angles 9 x 63 x 63
(3/8” x 2-1/2” x 2 1/2” minimum) high strength 344,000 kPa
(50,000 PSI) yield steel angle or in a frame with both sides of
the clutch housing and gear housing bolted to the angles or
frame.
See diagram below for recommended mounting dimensions.
Note various thread depths of mounting holes and use
correspondingly different bolt lengths for proper mounting.
Substitution of attaching hardware items) bolts, nuts, or washers)
different from those supplied with your winch mounting kit can
lead to failure causing damage or serious injury. Use a socket head
mounting bolt on side with Spur Gear Housing (see diagram) to
prevent clearance problems. Use SAE grade 5 bolts or better.
Electrical Connections and Operations
For normal self-recovery work, your existing electrical system is
adequate. Your battery must be kept in good condition. A fully
charged battery and proper connections are essential. Run the
vehicle engine during winching operation to keep battery charged.
Connect red cable from stud on plastic solenoid cover on winch
to emergency stop solenoid. Important: Hold inner nut with end
wrench while tightening outer nut. Install emergency stop switch and
solenoid per kit # 282067 (12V) or 282068 (24V) as applicable.
Connect black cable from motor isolated ground terminal to negative
battery terminal (as shown above). A good electrical ground is
required for proper performance.
I
n applications where the chassis is non-grounded, a jumper wire
(#440315) will be required between the winch and the motor isolated
ground terminal. (See Illustration Below)
The remote control switch is waterproof and has push button
stations on either side. It is designed this way to prevent quick
winch reversals, which lead to solenoid failure. Make sure the winch
motor has stopped fully before reversing.
When first setting up your winch, follow the directions for inserting
the proper “IN” or “OUT” label in the thumb button. The switch is
also color coded to aid you in determining the direction your winch
will run.
Maintenance
Check monthly the action of the sliding clutch, making sure it is fully
engaging and disengaging with the rope drum. With the clutch in the
engaged position, remove the plastic plug in top of the housing and
observe if the clutch is fully engaging. If clutch is not fully engaging,
inspect the clutch shifter assembly parts, check for damage or
excessive wear and replace as necessary. Observe the jaws on both
the clutch and rope drum, checking for rounding of the driving faces.
WINCH WILL NOT OPERATE UNLESS
GROUND CABLE IS INSTALLED FROM THE
ISOLATED GROUND TERMINAL TO THE
NEGATIVE BATTERY POST.
