- Page 12 Part Number WW-700-34 Winch, Lowering Device Instructions Attach the Woody’s winch and clutch device as pre- viously described.

- Page 13 Part Number WW-700-34 Winch, Lowering Device Instructions The photo opposite shows the correct working line orientation through the lowering device fairleads and around the lowering bollard. The lowering bollard is de- signed to take larger shock loads than the winch drum and must be used when dynamically lowering large sec- tions of timber.
- Page 14 Part Number WW-700-34 Add more wraps to create extra friction, remember the Woody’s Winch has a large diameter lowering bollard that creates a larger amount of friction per wrap than smaller bollards, take this into account when determin- ing the amount of wraps to apply. Apply the appropriate number of wraps and ensure the working line exits the bollard via an exit fairlead.
- Page 15 Part Number WW-700-34 When using the Woody’s Winch for horizontal winching operations the operator must ensure the working line is redirected using an additional fairlead mounted above the Woody’s Winch. Using a suitably rated pulley and sling is recommended. Failure to follow this procedure will damage the devices fairleads and pull them out of alignment.
