Wiring Diagram
Attach the black lead firmly to the negative (–) battery terminal and red lead to
the positive (+) battery terminal. The voltage drop for the winch motor must
not exceed 10% of the nominal voltage of 12V. For best performance, mount
the winch as close to the battery as possible.
It is highly recommended that a Battery Isolator or Relay is installed. The relay
should be switched at the vehicle ignition when the accessories are turned on.
The battery isolator/Relay must be rated to handle more than the winch's
maximum amp draw under load. Consult a qualified automotive electrician for
supply and installation of a suitable devise.
Nut Fastening for Motor & Contactor
The nuts on the motor and contactor should be fastened to the specified
torque as outlined in the diagram below. Attempting to fasten the top nut
without locking the bottom nut could result in damage to the studs. Do not
tighten top nut without locking bottom nut.
