Maintenance; Troubleshooting - Mile Marker PE2.5 ES Installation And Operator's Manual

•All moving parts within the Electric Winch have been lubricated using high temperature lithium grease at the factory. No further
internal lubrication is required for the life of the winch.
•Lubricate the cable periodically using light penetrating oil.
•Electrical connections may corrode over a period of time due to environmental changes. This may result in reduced performance
of the winch or even possible electrical shorting. Hence, always clean the electrical connections before and after using the winch.
•After every use of the winch, inspect the cable for damages such as kinks, broken strands etc. When damaged, replace the cable
immediately!
CAUTION:
It is recommended that you replace the cable with superior Mile Marker cables. If replacing from other sources, carefully
compare for the maximum load capacity of the cable with that mentioned in the Specifications Section of this manual.
