Installation
The Quick Mount
TM
is solely and exclusively designed
for vehicle mounted, non-industrial applications. All other
applications will void warranty.
The Quick Mount
TM
must be front mounted with a front
receiver hitch available from Ramsey for select- ed ve-
hicles. For rear mounting of the QM 5000, any standard
Class III rear receiver hitch may be used.
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 connec-
tions are essential.
For front mounting, route quick connect battery power
lead through grille, leaving connector on outside and
connect red cable to po) terminal and black cable
to negative(-) terminal of battery. Secure cable under
hood with cable ties.
For rear mounting connect battery power lead as in-
structed above. Secure cables under vehicle away from
moving parts and exhaust system. Terminate routing
near the center of the vehicle at the rear. BE SURE
BATTERY CABLES ARE NOT DRAWN TAUT ACROSS
ANY SURFACES WHICH COULD POSSI- BLY DAM-
AGE THEM.
Secure Quick Mount
TM
in the receiver with the Ramsey
locking pin. Connect quick disconnect from Quick
Mount
TM
winch to battery power lead. Plug remote
switch into receptacle on solenoid assembly.
Clutch Operation
The winch clutch allows rapid unspooling of the cable
for hooking onto the load or anchor point. The clutch is
operated by the shifter lever located on the gear hous-
ing end of the winch. Disengage the clutch, (move the
clutch shifter lever to the “OUT” position.) Free spool
some cable off the drum. Engage the clutch, (move the
clutch shifter lever to the “IN” position.)
Remote Control Switch Operation
The remote control switch is water proof and has push
button stations on either side. It is designed this way to
prevent quick winch reversals which lead to premature
solenoid failure. The switch is also color coded to aid
you in not having to guess at the direction your winch
willl run. Pushing both buttons at the same time will not
damage your winch in any way. Make sure the mo-
tor has stopped fully before reversing. Run the winch
forward and reverse to check connections. Snap ap-
propriate plastic disc into proper thumb button cavity on
remote switch after determining direction of rotation for
winch drum.
DO NOT LEAVE SWITCH PLUGGED IN WHEN WINCH
IS NOT IN USE.
Care and Maintenance
Corrosion on electrical connections will reduce per- for-
mance or may cause a short. Clean all connec- tions,
especially in remote control switch and recepta- cle. In
salty environments use a silicone sealer to protect from
corrosion.
All moving parts in the winch are permanently lubri-
cated with high temperature lithium grease at the time of
assembly. Under normal conditions, factory lubrication
will suffi ce.
Lubricate the cable periodically using light penetrat-
ing oil. If the cable becomes worn or damaged it must
be replaced. Inspect for broken strands and replace if
necessary (see the next section for cable replacement
instructions).
