OPERATION AND SERVICE INFORMATION
3-6
Read all of manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
If the vehicle becomes stuck or ‘hung up’ on an obstruction, the vehicle
may be moved using the winch.
The winch may be installed in either the front or rear receiver and held
in place with the locking pin provided.
To prevent severe injury or death,
read and understand the following
before attempting to use the winch:
The winch is not intended to be used in any hoisting oper-
ation.
The rolling load capacity of the winch decreases with the
steepness of the slope.
The winch is designed for intermittent duty only. The elec-
tric motor should not be allowed to become excessively
hot. If the motor becomes uncomfortably hot to the touch,
stop winching and allow the motor to cool.
Always wear thick leather gloves when handling the wire
cable.
Replace frayed wire cable with a direct factory replace-
ment only.
Never operate the winch with less than five (5) full turns of
cable around the drum (Ref Fig. 5 on page 3-6).
If the winch motor stalls from overloading, do not continue
to activate the winch remote control. The wire cable may
become overstressed.
Do not attempt to pull loads exceeding 1500 lbs. (680 kg).
To pull out the cable, the free spool clutch knob must be
used. Pull out and rotate the knob. If the cable is under any
load the clutch may not release easily. Jog out some of the
cable to release the tension and operate clutch. Pull out
the desired amount of cable and secure. Engage the drum
by rotating the knob until it snaps in place. Never operate
the winch unless the clutch is engaged.
Have all persons and pets leave the area while operating
winch. Never allow anyone to remain in the vehicle.
To prevent damage to the wire cable, never hook the cable
to itself. Always use a nylon sling (Ref Fig. 6 on page 3-7)
(Ref Fig. 7 on page 3-7).
Stay clear of the winch, the cable and the cable hook.
Place a heavy cloth, jacket or blanket over the cable to act
as a damper should the cable break when operating the
winch (Ref Fig. 7 on page 3-7).
Remember that the winch operation will drain the battery
and may leave insufficient power to start the vehicle.
When operating the winch, keep the entire area in view.
Never release the free spool clutch while the cable is
under load.
