Section 8 Troubleshooting 8.1 Winch Will Not Pull Load Probable Cause Remedy 1. Tractor or winch relief valve may be set too low. Install a pressure gauge in the LINE-IN circuit (refer to Figure 8-1) and apply a stall pull on the winch. If pressure is low, increase relief valve setting until recommended pressure is obtained (refer to Figure 4-2).
Troubleshooting 8.2 Considerable Reduction In Line Speed Probable Cause Remedy 1. Worn motor. Replace motor. 2. If this trouble occurs suddenly after working at Remove relief valve, disassemble and clean parts maximum pull, a particle of dirt may be lodged thoroughly in a suitable solvent.
Section 8 8.4 Brake Will Not Hold In Neutral When Pulling a Load Probable Cause Remedy 1. There is excessive back pressure acting on the Install a pressure gauge in the LINE-OUT circuit (refer reverse port of the winch motor. This back pressure to Figure 8-1).
