RESETTING THE MAINTENANCE ALARMS
The L401 controller will display a warning message when the unit is due for maintenance or service. The maintenance
or service intervals are set at 250 and 500 hours of engine running time. Once the unit has been serviced, the
appropriate maintenance alarm reminder needs to be reset.
To remove the latching alarm fault, press and hold the Stop/Reset (O) button on the controller for 10 seconds on the
desired Maintenance Alarm Status page.
WINCH USE, OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
•
Keep the winch free of dirt, oil, grease, water and other substances.
•
Check all mounting bolts and make sure they are tightened to the recommended torque values. Replace
any damaged fasteners.
•
Periodically check all connections to be sure they are tight and free of corrosion.
•
Check the cable for visible damage every time the winch is operated. Examples of damage are: cuts, knots,
mashed or frayed portions, and broken strands. Replace cable immediately if damaged. Failure to replace
a damaged cable could result in breakage.
•
Regularly check the brake for slippage or drift. This is detected visually when winch is under load. If winch
drum continues to turn after controls are released, the brake may need to be replaced.
•
Periodically clean and grease the brake assembly. This will ensure proper performance and extend the life
of the winch. If winch seems to labor or get excessively hot during the lowering of loads, the brake will need
to be serviced or replaced.
•
Check motor brushes periodically and replace when necessary.
Note: Only the motor brushes and brake assembly require periodic replacement.
