HYDRAULIC SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Refer to the performance charts on following page to properly match your hydraulic system to the winch performance. The charts consist of: (1) First layer Line Pull (LB) vs. Working Pressure (PSI) and (2) First layer Line Speed (FPM) vs. Flow (GPM). A motor spool directional control valve is required.
WINCH MOUNTING NOTE: The winch must be mounted so that it reels in in the required direction as noted on page 5. NOTE: Remove and discard the (4) 5/8” capscrews from the foot mounting holes in the end bearings. These capscrews hold on the foot mount spacers during shipping and should not be used for mounting. It is most important that this winch be mounted securely so that the three major sections (the motor end, the cable drum, and the gear-housing end) are properly aligned.
