HYDRAULIC WINCH

The winch is used to pull in material from a distance, and get it close enough for the grapple to pick. The
winch specifications are different for each grapple model, but the operation is the same for both.
6�2�1� HYDRAULIC WINCH CONTROL
This 3-position valve controls the flow of oil to the
hydraulic motor powering the rope winch.
1. Pull the hydraulic control lever back and hold to
start the winch and rewind the rope.
2. Release the lever and it will return to neutral and
stop rewinding the rope.
3. Push the lever forward to allow the rope to
unwind under power.
4. Release the lever and it will return to neutral and
stop unwinding the rope.
6�2�2� WINCH GEAR LEVER:
This three-position lever controls the gears on the
winch drive system.
1. Pull the lever back to engage the winch gear to
the hydraulic motor.
2. Push it forward to disengage the winch gear
from the hydraulic motor, allowing the gear free-
wheel. The rope can then be easily pulled out
to attach to a log.
Caution: Always
ensure the area is clear
of bystanders when
operating the winch,
and never use the
winch to hold or
secure loads
