OPTIONS COUNTERCLOCKWISE ROTATION: The drum rotation of the standard PULLMASTER Model H12 planetary winch is clockwise for hoisting when looking at the hydraulic motor of the winch. Drum rotation for counterclockwise hoisting direction is available as an option. EXTERNAL BRAKE RELEASE: PULLMASTER planetary winches can be supplied with an external brake release which permits release of the automatic disc brake from an external pressure source.
SPECIFICATIONS Performance specifications are based on standard hydraulic motor, gear ratio and cable drum with 5/8 inch diameter wire rope. For other cable drums refer to APPENDIX A. For other reductions or motors, refer to supplement inside back cover. Performance specifications for winches supplied with optional motors are provided in attached supplement.

RECOMMENDATIONS HYDRAULIC FLUID: HYDRAULIC PRESSURE RELIEF: The hydraulic fluid selected for use with PULLMASTER The hydraulic circuit for the PULLMASTER planetary winch requires a pressure relief set at the operating planetary winches should be a high grade, petroleum pressure (see SPECIFICATIONS). Usually, a pressure based fluid, with rust, oxidation and wear resistance.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS DANGER FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS WILL RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH. The initial installation or mounting of a PULLMASTER planetary winch is critically important for proper operation and performance. If the winch is mounted to an uneven surface, the centre line of the unit can be distorted to a point where the winch will not operate in either direction.
Page 12
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS DANGER FAILURE TO FOLLOW OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WILL RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH. After the PULLMASTER planetary winch has been installed in accordance with the INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS, the wire rope can be fastened to the cable drum. IMPORTANT: The ropes, chains, slings, etc.
TROUBLE SHOOTING GENERAL: In most cases, when the hydraulic winch does not perform satisfactorily, the cause of malfunction is found somewhere in the hydraulic circuit. Before the winch is removed from its mounting and disassembled, all of the hydraulic circuit components should be checked for proper function. IMPORTANT: The hydraulic oil volume relates to the line speed or rpm of the winch.

TROUBLE SHOOTING CONTINUED FAILURE PROBABLE CAUSE Brake plates or divider plates have been damaged by Brake will not hold. contamination in the hydraulic fluid, or lack of circulation flow in the brake housing. Brake piston is seized in the brake housing because of contamination in the hydraulic fluid.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL: Before attempting disassembly of the PULLMASTER Model H12 planetary winch the following instructions for disassembly and reassembly should be read and understood. It is suggested that all expendable parts, such as O-rings and oil seals are not reused on reassembly. It is therefore important to have a seal kit (Part No.
Page 16
SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED Pocket seals, body seals, and ring seals in the hydraulic motor assembly are not part of the winch seal kit. The seal kit for the hydraulic motor can be ordered from the factory under Part No. 23121. REMOVAL OF HYDRAULIC MOTOR ASSEMBLY: If disassembly of the hydraulic motor is not necessary proceed as follows: 1) Remove 12 hex capscrews, item 821, with lockwashers, item 823, from motor adaptor, item 800.
Page 17
SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED 11) Thoroughly examine inner bores of brake housing and outer diameters of brake piston for scoring caused by hydraulic fluid contamination. Minor surface damage may be repaired by polishing with a fine emery cloth. DANGER DAMAGED FRICTION OR DIVIDER PLATES WILL REDUCE BRAKING CAPACITY AND ALLOW THE LOAD TO DROP, CAUSING PROPERTY DAMAGE, SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED 3) If primary planet assembly has to be taken apart, remove circlips, item 411, and push primary planet pins, item 410, out of planet hub, item 400. 4) Remove primary planet gears, item 420, together with needle bearings, item 423, and thrust washers, item 421.
Page 19
SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED 7) Install primary sungear, item 440, into centre of three primary planet gears, item 420. Ensure gear teeth are fully engaged by rotating cable drum. 8) Carefully insert brake housing, item 700, into ball bearings, items 507 and 509. 9) Fasten base, item 550, onto housings using 12 capscrews, item 551, and lockwashers, item 553.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED REASSEMBLY OF HYDRAULIC MOTOR: If the hydraulic motor was disassembled, the following procedure should be followed for reassembly: NOTE: Thrust plates with six slots require pocket seals as indicated below. Thrust plates without slots do not require these seals. 1) Clean all parts thoroughly beofre reassembly and apply grease liberally to all seals.
RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE Winch gear train lubricating oil should be changed after the initial six months or 50 hours of operation, whichever comes first. Lubricating oil should then be changed every 12 months or 500 operating hours, whichever comes first. Hydraulic system fluid should be changed at least once every 12 months. For optimum performance over an extended period of time, the following preventative maintenance service should be done every 12 months or 500 hours, whichever comes first: 1) Disconnect all hydraulic hoses and remove the winch from its mounting.
