 WARNING! Winching a vehicle, especially with a steel cable, has an inherant danger element to it, and there is always some risk

of injury. Proper training is highly advised and constant risk assessment needs to be undertaken.

 WARNING! Never connect DC powered winches to AC current. Motor damage or fatal shock may occur.

 DO NOT lift or hoist loads over people. DO NOT lift loads vertically. The winch was designed for ground use only.



 DO NOT overload. Be sure all equipment used meets the winch's maximum line pull rating. We recommend using the pulley block option

to double line the wire rope (see fig.1). Double line with a pulley block to reduce the load on the winch, wire rope and battery.

When double lining, pulley blocks should be rated to a minimum of two times the winch's line pull rating. The cable may break before the

winch stalls. For heavy loads use a pulley block to reduce the load on the cable.

 DO NOT immerse the winch in water. Doing so will immediately effect load holding and brake efficiency and in time will damage the motor

and cause accelerated gearbox wear invalidating the warranty.



 DO NOT operate the winch with less than 5 turns of wire rope around the winch drum, since the wire rope end may not withstand the full

load.



 DO NOT pull from extreme angles, (see fig.2), because this will cause the rope to build up on one end of the drum, will damage the wire

rope, and invalidate the warranty.

 WARNING! The winch's line pull capacity is the maximum line pull of the first layer. Never operate a winch by pulling a load that is at

or over the rated capacity.

 DO NOT hook the wire cable back to itself because it could damage the wire rope. Use a Self Recovery Kit, (see fig.3) contact your dealer

for full details..

 Make sure the winch is securely mounted on the vehicle or bracket before operation.

 Before moving a load inspect the wire rope. Prevent kinks and uneven wire layering before they occur. Loosened wire rope must be

properly tensioned under a load of about 100lbs (45.4kg).

 Postion a Wire Rope Dampener (available as an optional extra) over the wire rope near the hook end when pulling, as this will slow the

snap back of a broken wire rope and prevent serious injury and/or damage.

 DO NOT move your vehicle to assist the winch in pulling the load. It will be easy to overload, and cause wire rope damage.

 DO NOT enter the danger zone. Keep away from the danger zone during operation. The danger zone is the area of the winch drum, the

fairlead (if fitted), the wire rope, the pulley block (if used), and the hook.

 DO NOT approach or span the wire rope when the winch is under load.

 When using the winch to move a load, place the vehicle transmission in neutral, apply the handbrake and chock all wheels. The vehicle

engine should be running during winch operation so that the battery is fully charged. Never use the winch if there is any doubt as to the

efficiency of the battery.

 DO NOT disconnect the free spool clutch when there is load on the winch.

 After operation release the load immediately. DO NOT allow the cable to tighten anymore.

 Inspect winch, wire rope, hooks and other accessories frequently. A mashed, pinched, kinked or frayed wire rope with broken strands

should be replaced at once because a damaged wire rope has a reduced load carrying capability and could break easily.

Keep tension on the cable to re-spool the cable on the drum tightly after operating. It must be respooled with a load of about 45.4kg

(100lbs).

 DO NOT allow the wire rope to slide through your hands, use heavy rigger gloves when handling wire rope.

 Disconnect the clutch first then use the hand saver strap to hitch the hook to pull the wire rope. DO NOT pull the wire rope using your

finger and do not put your finger through the hook.

 DO NOT operate the winch when under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication.

 If there is something wrong with the winch, cut the power at once, then check it carefully. If required, return it to your dealer for servicing.

 Wear eye protection, insulated work clothes, non-slip shoes, keep hair tied up and wear rigger gloves. Remove all jewellery.

 DO NOT machine or alter the winch in any way.

 Take good care of the winch when not in use.

 WARNING! Unplug the remote control before working in or around the fairlead or the wire rope drum, (the danger zone). Never tuck it

under your arm or allow anyone to hold it when you are in the danger zone, so as to avoid the hand control being accidentally activated.

 WARNING! Do not use the winch to hold loads in place. Use other means of holding loads such as tie down straps.

 WARNING! If you are within four feet of the winch do not hold the wire rope and remote control at the same time.

 WARNING! Mount the winch to a firm base. Be sure that your structural support is strong enough to withstand the weight and rated pulling

strength of the winch.

NOTE: Whilst mounting orientation is at your discretion, the winch is to be operated with the wire rope in an under wound orientation on

the drum.The winch is designed to rope out and rope in, in one direction. DO NOT attempt to reverse the operation of the winch.

 WARNING! DO NOT weld or machine any part of the winch, this will weaken it and void the warranty.

 WARNING! Batterires contain explosive gases.The following precautions should be taken before making battery connections: wear eye

protection; remove all jewellery; follow the wiring diagram included in the installation instructions; keep spectators away. In the event of a

battery explosion, acid should be washed away as soon as possible, seek medical help immediately.

 WARNING! Use of any other accessories or attachments other than those recommended in this instruction manual may result in personal

injury or property damage and could void the warranty.

NOTE: The safety precautions and instructions discussed in this manual can't cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It

must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors whch cannot be built into this product but must be applied

by the operator.
