Function Testing
After checking all connections in accordance to installation
instructions prior, connect power cables to vehicle's battery.
Attach Black Cable to Negative (-) Battery Terminal and se-
cure, followed by attaching the Red Cable to Positive (+) Bat-
tery Terminal.
1. Before testing the winch, turn the clutch handle to the
"Freespool" position. Always wear heavy gloves when han-
dling winch cable. Using a Mile Marker hook strap, pull
about two feet of cable off the winch drum, and place the
clutch handle in the "Engaged" position (fig. 3-1).
2. Toggle the Joystick "down" to retrieve line. When using
the handlebar remote, you can also toggle the "IN" button for
the same retrieval function (fig. 3-2). Winch cable will spool
in on drum.
NOTE:
If cable is spooled "Out" while pressing the "IN"
function, please refer to Figure 2-1, and switch power cables
to opposite studs on motor.
4. Toggle the Joystick "up" to Power Out winch cable. When
using the handlebar remote, you can also toggle the "OUT"
button for the same Power Out function (fig. 3-2). Winch
Cable will spool out off of drum.
CAUTION:
The "OUT" function is for INTERMITTENT USE
ONLY, as you are powering drum against the brake, and can
damage internal mechanism.
5. If any of the above functions are not working properly,
recheck all connections in accordance with Installation Sec-
tion of this manual, or refer to Troubleshooting Section in
back of manual.
