3.
Mount winch to the vehicle using high strength cap screw. It should be aligned and
secured to a solid part of the vehicle (front or rear) where the full rated load will be
evenly distributed.
4.
Connect the two-color (positive) battery cable from the directional valve to screw-
down positive (+) terminal to the 12/24-volt battery.
5.
Please refer to installation illustration.
Mounting The Balance Valve:
The balance valve supplied is connected to motor. Be sure the balance valve
’s
installing direction meets hydraulic principle chart. Otherwise, the winch will not reach
the rated line pull, and it is also dangerous for winch to power off the cable with heavy
load. If this symptom happens, simply disconnect the balance valve: exchange the oil
hole between hydraulic motor and balance valve, while your winch is working in a
different direction; change A
→
C1,B
→
C2 into A
→
C2,B
→
C1 and reconnect it. If your
order includes the balance valve should be supplied, it will have been connected with
the motor at the factory.
Plumbing Connections:
Keep all hoses away from any areas where heat may be considered too extreme such
as an exhaust manifold or turbo. Lines should not be allowed to rub on any abrasive
or vibrating surfaces. In some applications, 90°fittings on the directional valve and
motor or balance valve are necessary to make hose mounting more flexible. After
plumbing has been laid out on vehicle, install o-ring fittings supplied to valve. Torque
tight. Do not over tighten any fittings. Install o-ring fittings on Winch Motor. Torque
tight. Connect any hose port A on motor or port V1 on balance valve to port A on
directional valve, port B on motor or port V2 on balance valve to port B on directional
valve, port P on directional
valve to pump’s high pressure port, port T on valve to
reservoir, if necessary Connect any hose port S on valve to steering box. Attach any
o-ring or seal from vehicles original tube fitting to tube fitting.
