Permanent Wiring - Keeper KWSL2000RM Assembly & Operating Instructions

2. Connect the Black Clamp Handle of the POWER
CABLE to the frame of your vehicle, establishing
a ground connection. Connect the Red Clamp
Handle to the Positive (+/Red) terminal of your
battery (Figure 11). Note: Be sure you are
using a 12V automotive battery or equiva-
lent, in good condition.
3. Taking the Remote Control Unit, insert the
Socket at the end of the cord into the Plug on
the left side of the winch body labeled "remote
Control" (Figure 12).
4. Set the remote control aside in a safe place
until ready for use.
5. Be careful plugging in the units as each as their
own receptacle.

Permanent Wiring

1. Attach the circuit breaker to the Positive (+/Red) terminal of your battery, using the battery terminal
clamp bolt.
2. Plan a route for the wiring from the point of the vehicle where the winch will be mounted, or used, to
the battery. This route must be secure, out of the way of moving parts, road debris, or any possibility
of being damaged by operation or maintenance of the vehicle. For example, you may wish to route the
wires under the vehicle, attached it to the frame using suitable fasteners. Do not attach the wires to
the exhaust system, drive shaft, emergency brake cable, fuel line, or any other components which may
create damage to the wiring through heat or motion, or create a fire hazard.
3. If you drill through the bumper or any part of the body to route the wires, be sure to install a rubber
grommet in the hole to prevent fraying of the wires at that point.
4. Route the POWER CABLE from the point the winch will be used to the battery, following the precautions
discussed above.
5. Remove the Red Clamp handle, and attach the red wire to the circuit breaker which is mounted onto
the Positive (+/Red) terminal of your battery.
6. Remove the Black Clamp handle and attach the black wire to the frame of your vehicle, creating a
secure electrical ground.

WARNING
1. Always CONNECT Red to Red (Positive to Positive) and Black to the frame, making a ground connection,
when using battery power from your vehicle.
2. Never continue use of your winch or other accessory until the battery is completely run down.
3. You may wish to keep your engine running while using this winch to continually recharge the battery.
However, exercise extreme caution when working around a running vehicle.
4. Do not use a dirty, corroded or leaking battery. You may suffer injury from acid burns.
5. Always wear ANSI approved safety glasses when working around or with a battery.
