9. NEVER HOOK THE WIRE ROPE BACK ONTO ITSELF because you could damage the wire rope. Use a nylon sling (Figure 4). 10. It is a good idea to lay a heavy blanket or jacket over the wire rope near the hook end when pulling heavy loads (Figure 5).

• Do not force the winch. Winches do a better and safer job when used in the manner for which they are designed. Plan your work, and use the correct winch for the job. • Never use a winch with a malfunctioning switch. Any winch that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired by an authorized service representative before using.

EXTENDING THE LIFE OF YOUR WINCH 1. KEEP THE WIRE ROPE TIGHTLY WOUND ON THE DRUM. Do not allow the wire rope to become loosely wound. A loosely wound spool allows a wire rope under load to work its way down into the layers of wire rope on the drum.
a) This is the start of kink. At this time, the wire rope should be straightened b) The wire rope was pulled and the loop has tightened to a kink. The wire rope is now permanently damaged and must be replaced. c) Kinking causes the wire strands under the greatest tension to break and thus reduces the load capacity of the wire rope.
• Lubrication: The gearbox and drum bearing are permanently lubricated. If lubrication is necessary after repair or disassembly, only use Shell Alvenia EP2 or similar lubricant. • Periodically check tightness of mounting bolts and electrical connections. Remove any dirt or corrosion that may have accumulated on the electric connections.
