ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
For self-recovery work, the fitment of a TJM Dual Battery System is recommended. A fully charged battery and
proper connections are essential. Run the vehicle engine during winching operations to keep batteries (2) charged.
Important
When securing the leads to the terminals on the winch motor, ensure that two open end spanners are used to
secure the lead to the terminal (as shown).
Failure to do so will result in the internal connections of the motor
shorting out and void any warranty.
Pay close attention to proper electrical lead connection as follows (refer to Diagram 1)
•
Long black lead – connects to negative (-) terminal of battery & to bottom terminal of motor (A).
•
Earth Lead (Thin black lead) – connects to No. 2 stud on control box to bottom terminal of motor (A).
•
Long red lead – connects to positive (+) terminal of battery & to No 3 stud on control box.
•
Short red lead – connects to No. 4 stud on control box & to red stud (B) of motor.
•
Short yellow lead – connects to No. 1 stud on control box & to yellow stud (C) of motor.
•
Short blue lead – connects to No. 5 stud on control box & to blue terminal stud (D) of motor.
NOTE:
1.
Your battery must be kept in good condition.
2.
Be sure battery cables are not drawn taught across any surfaces, which could possibly damage them.
3.
Corrosion on electrical connections will reduce performance or may cause a short.
4.
Clean all connections especially in remote control switch and receptacle.
5.
In salty environments use a silicone sealer to protect from corrosion.
6.
Index the heads of the plate studs into the keyhole slots on the back of the winch.
