INSTALLATION
MOUNTING YOUR WINCH
1. a) The winch is to be mounted into a suitable steel mounting frame using the 4 point foot mounting system
in either a horizontal or vertical plane.
b) It's very important that the winch be mounted on a flat surface so that the three sections (motor, cable
drum and gear housing) are properly aligned.
c) Before commencing installation, ensure the mounting facility being used is capable of withstanding the
winches rated capacity.
d) The fitment of winches and / or a frontal protection system may affect the triggering of SRS air bags.
Check that the mounting system has been tested and approved for winch fitment in the airbag equipped
vehicle.
2. TJM Products manufacture winch mounting frames and / or Frontal Protection Systems to suit most
popular vehicles. Winch frames are packaged with detailed fitting instructions.
3. The winch should be secured to the mount with four M10 x 1.5 x 30mm stainless steel bolts, spring
washers provided and square nuts which are pre-installed at the base of the winch.
4. The roller fairlead is to be mounted so as to guide the rope onto the drum evenly.
LUBRICATION INSTALLATION
All moving parts in the winch are permanently lubricated with heavy duty grease at the time of assembly. Under
normal conditions factory lubrication will suffice. Lubricate cable periodically using light penetrating oil. Inspect for
broken strands and replace if necessary. If the cable becomes worn or damaged it must be replaced.
CABLE INSTALLATION
Unwind the new cable by rolling it along the ground, to prevent kinking. Remove old cable and observe the manner
in which it is attached to the cable drum flange.
