WARN INDUSTRIES * THE BASIC GUIDE TO UTILITY PULLING

UTILITY PULLING INTRODUCTION
WARNING
Never operate a
PullzAll without
reading or
understanding
the operator’s
manual.
So, you have your WARN
PullzAll and you are ready to put it
to use.
This guide provides you
with a basic understanding of
your PullzAll and teaches you
the basics of proper pulling/
lifting techniques. Before we get
started, we must emphasize that
the information in this guide is
general in nature. Because no two
situations are alike, it would be
nearly impossible to review them
all. We will, however, provide you
with the general principles and
techniques to use this tool safely
and effectively. Then it is up to
you to take the time to analyze
the situation and apply the proper
technique.
Along with a little common
sense, the information laid out in
this guide can help you lift and
pull safely. Just remember to
think through each lifting or pulling
situation before you act.
To Go Prepared
TM
, the
following instructions will help you
understand the operation of the
PullzAll.

HOW THE PULLZALL WORKS
1.
5.
Fairlead
When using the
PullzAll at an angle, the fairlead acts
to guide the wire rope onto the top
of the spooling drum. It minimizes
damage to the rope while it goes
through the PullzAll mount.
Gear Train
The reduction gears
convert the PullzAll motor torque
into a large pulling force. The gear
train design makes it possible for
the PullzAll to be light and compact.
Load Limiter
(
not shown
) Is a
device that automatically interrupts
the power whenever the circuit
becomes overloaded. The ready/
overload indicator LED turns red
under extreme loads and fl ashes
red when maximum load has been
exceeded.
To begin, you should
familiarize yourself with
your PullzAll and each of its
components:
Motor
The motor provides
torque to the gear train, which
turns the PullzAll drum and winds
the wire rope.
Spooling Drum
The PullzAll
drum is the cylinder from which
the wire rope winds. The drum is
driven by the gear train and motor.
Its direction can be changed using
the directional selector switch. The
wire rope unwinds off the top of
the drum.
Wire Rope
The rope’s
diameter and length are
determined by the PullzAll’s load
capacity and design. Wrapped
around the PullzAll drum and fed
through the fairlead, the rope is
looped at the end to accept the
hook’s clevis pin.
