NOTE: Your Mile Marker Control Box comes with an
option of mounting it to the winch or at any remote
location. However, Mile Marker recommends you to
mount it to the winch following the instructions be-
low. If you choose to mount it at any remote location,
please ensure that: (a) the location does not interfere
with any vehicle's moving / functioning parts, and (b)
you use electrical cables with similar or better speci-
fications as that provided by Mile Marker.
CAUTION: Make sure that all exposed electrical con-
nections are covered with insulation boots to avoid
electrical short.
Battery cables should not be drawn taut; leave some
slack for cable movement. Also, ensure that they are
routed properly with out any interference with the
vehicular components that could potentially damage
the cable or cause electrical short.
Long battery cable runs may have significant voltage
drops that may cause the winch motor controller to
not operate.
NOTE: The SI Series winch utilizes an integrated con-
tol box, therefore only battery cable instruction ap-
plies to these models.
