Mounting The Balance Valve:
The balance valve supplied is simply
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 different direction
,change A→C1,B→C2 into A→C2,B→C1.And reconnect it. If your
order demand 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, turbo or
any moving parts. Lines should not be allowed to rub on any rotating,
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 seals to valves and connections.. Torque
tight. Do not over tighten any fittings. Install O-ring seals 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 on valve to steering box. Attach any
O-ring or seal from vehicles original tube fitting to tube fitting..
HYDRAULIC pRINCIpAL CHART AND
INSTALLATION:
CAUTION
The hydraulic system needs a relief valve to ensure the system safety.
The absence of such a valve could cause serious injury and damage
the winch.
CAUTION
Winch battery cables should be placed so that there is a small amount
of slack in the cable.
If you are using a heat exchanger with your application to cool the
hydraulic fluid you should refer to the illustration about mounting.
You should check the hydraulic fluid level and replace any that may
have seeped out.
The hydraulic system should be purged at this time. Listed below are the
directions on how to purge the hydraulic system.
how to purge the hydraulic system.
1. Start the engine.
2. Power the winch to draw out about 5 feet of cable.
3. Shut down the engine.
4. Check the fluid level and fill as needed.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 as necessary.
6. Start the engine.
7. Move the cable into the desired position.
8. Turn the wheels on the vehicle from the right lock to the left lock
positions five times to help bleed the hydraulic system.
9. If the hand control unit is working backwards, simple exchange the
brown and the white wire connections within the valve.
Test the winch for proper operation. Refer to the Operation section.
