(1)
Motor – 6.0 HP (4.5 kW) 12V DC motor
provides power to the planetary gear
mechanism.
(2)
Braking system – Braking action is
automatically applied to the winch drum by
a separate mechanical brake when the winch
motor is stopped and there is a load on the
wire rope.
(3)
Solenoid – Power from the vehicle battery
flows through the weather-sealed solenoid
switch before being directed to the winch
motor.
(4)
Free spooling clutch – The clutch allows the
operator to manually disengage ("Out") the
spooling drum from the gear train. Engaging
the clutch ("In") locks the winch into the gear
system.
(5)
Planetary gear system – The reduction gears
convert the winch motor power into extreme
pulling forces. This system allows high torque
while maintaining compact size and light
weight.
(6)
Speed Mount™ hitch adapter – Adapter
for front or rear end class III hitch receiver
mounting and off-vehicle storage switch before
being directed to the winch motor.

Wire rope – 3/8 in. x 85 ft. (9.2 mm x 26 m)
galvanized aircraft cable designed specifically
for load capacity of 12,000 lb. (5,443 kg).

Roller fairlead – When using the winch at an
angle the roller fairlead acts to guide the wire
rope onto the drum and minimizes damage
to the wire rope from abrasion on the winch
mount or bumper.
(11)
Winch drum – The winch drum is the cylinder
on which the wire rope is stored. It can feed or
wind the rope depending on the remote winch
switch.

Quick connect leads – 6 ft. (1.8 m) heavy-duty
cables with quick connect leads.
(13)
Remote switch – Dual switches for powering
the rope in or out of your winch drum.
(14)
Snatch block – Used properly, the snatch block
can double the pulling power of the winch, or
change your pulling directly without damaging
the wire rope.
