NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual SAFETY INFORMATION CAUTION Prior to installing and operating the winch, please read this manual thoroughly and carefully. Keep this manual and all other instructions accessible at all times. The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 states that it is the employer’s responsibility to provide a workplace free of hazard.
NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 1.1 GENERAL INFORMATION THE RIGHT CHOICE WHEN YOU NEED TO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Features & Specifications • Salt water package standard on all power winches. • Hot-dipped galvanized. • Stainless or silicon bronze fasteners.
NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 1.2 INSTALLATION OF EQUIPMENT NOTICE It is the responsibility of the customer, not the winch manufacturer, to properly locate and install the winch with regard to the safety of those operating the machinery.

NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 1.2.4 Maintain a fleet angle no greater than 1-1/2 degrees from winch drum to lead sheave (see appendix 1). The proper fleet angle helps to minimize wire rope damage by assisting the wire rope to wind uniformly onto the drum.
NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 1.3 ELECTRIC POWER CONNECTION CAUTION All electrical work must be performed by a licensed electrician. Failure to do so could result in electric shock or poor equipment operation. 1.3.1 All winches have been factory tested prior to shipment to insure proper operation.
NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 1.4 INSTALLATION OF WIRE ROPE 1.4.1 To install wire rope, rotate the drum of the winch so that the U-bolt nuts are easily accessed through the round cut out located on the side of the winch (see fig. 2a).
Page 10
NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 1.4.6 Tighten the U-bolt nuts evenly to secure the wire rope to the winch drum. The U-bolt will act as a vise keeping the wire rope in place as the rest of the rope is reeled onto the winch.
NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 2.1 OPERATING THE WINCH 2.1.1 Powered Operation 2.1.1.1 To reel the wire rope onto the winch drum, depress and hold the “IN” button located on the control box or remote operator station. Make certain that the locking pawl is disengaged by rotating the locking pawl handle to the up position and inserting the T handle locking pin to secure in place (see fig.
Page 12
NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 2.1.2 Emergency Operation WARNING Manual operation of an electric winch while under load is extremely dangerous and should only be performed in emergency situations. The extreme high tensions that are common in winch applications should not be underestimated.

NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 3.1 EQUIPMENT INSPECTION NOTICE An inspection program should be started as soon as any equipment is put into service. A qualified person should be appointed the responsibility of regularly inspecting the equipment. Written records of inspections are recommended by the manufacturer.
Page 15
NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 3.1.2.6 Disconnect power and thoroughly inspect electrical equipment for signs of wear, cuts, corroded connections, moisture, burn marks and other damage. 3.1.2.7 Check the power supply at the motor to ensure that it is consistant with the motor rating.
Lubricate the spur gears before each operation, and periodically during operation. Failure to lubricate the gears will cause damage or deformation of gear teeth. 3.2.1 All grease fittings should be lubricated using NABRICO’s suggested lubricants or similar (See Appendix 2).
NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual 3.3 CLEANING AND STORAGE 3.3.1 Cleaning the Equipment 3.3.1.1 The equipment should be regularly cleaned to remove dirt and to help prevent rust and corrosion. 3.3.1.2 When cleaning, be sure to leave a light film of oil on all surfaces to protect them against the elements of nature.
NABRICO DF-1 NS ELECTRIC WINCH Owner’s Manual A.1 FLEET ANGLE Fleet Angle: In order to insure proper wrapping on the drum and no undue wear of the wire rope, the fleet angle should be kept as small as practical. This is important to consider during the planning of a winch installation.
