Page 4: Mounting Winch
This may allow the winch to be mount- ed easier on some winch mounts or for other applications. The motor on Mile Marker 2-speed winches may also be rotated in 90º increments if needed. This may allow easier installation on some winch mounts. - Page 5 NOT SURE? Which one is the high pressure hose? The hose with heavy duty crimped on fittings. The low pressure return lines from the steering box or hydroboost both end up at the pump reservoir will have hose clamps or some- thing similar.

Page 8: Preparation For Use
MILE MARKER TWO-SPEED WINCH OPERATION A. GENERAL The vehicle’s steering pump is used to power the winch. The engine must be running while operating the winch, as the engine turns the power steering pump which pumps fluid to rotate the winch. The winch will have full pull- ing capabilities at an engine idle. - Page 9 E. OPERATION OF HIGH GEAR 1. Turn top lever to “FREE.” Turn side lever to “HIGH” (lock high gear).

Page 10: General Operation
•The Mile Marker winch is a 2-Speed unit: low speed for vehicle recovery winching and high speed for line retrieval. - Page 11 WINCHING TIPS AND USE OF A SNATCH BLOCK •Use OEM tow hooks, recovery eyes or a clevis mount for attachment of a tow strap or winch cable. Warning: Never use a ball and /or ball mount as an anchor point for tow strap or winch cable. Severe personal injury or death could occur.

SAFETY TIPS •NEVER DISENGAGE LOW GEAR CLUTCH LEVER WHEN THERE IS A LOAD ON THE WINCH. To manually lock the winch to hold a load, engage BOTH HIGH and LOW GEARS. First, engage low gear. After low gear is engaged, engage high gear. - Page 13 USE OF A PULLEY BLOCK OR SNATCH BLOCK Figure 9: Vehicle self-recovery using the pulley block attached to the anchor point for direct pull. In this instance the vehicle becomes the “load” and the actual pulling power on the vehicle will be double at half winch rope speed.
- Page 14 A frayed cable with broken strands should be replaced immediately. Always replace the cable with a Mile Marker recommended replacement part. Any substitution must be IDENTI- CAL in strength, quality, lay and stranding. Never hook the cable back onto itself. Hooking the cable back onto itself creates an unacceptable strain, breaking individual strands which in turn weakens the entire cable.

The Mile Marker hydraulic motor has a five (5) year warranty. The owner will be responsible for removing the winch and returning it to Mile Marker freight prepaid.
