•
Do not exceed the maximum line pull ratings shown in this manual. Shock
loads must not exceed these ratings.
•
Pull from an angle below 15° in the horizontal plane to straighten up the
vehicle or load.
•
Always use appropriate gloves when handling the winch rope.
•
When winching, always use a recovery damper. Place over the rope in the
middle third of its length.
•
A rope should be replaced if it shows signs of excessive wear, broken strands,
corrosion for wire rope and excessive abrasion or fused and melted fibre for
synthetic rope or any other defects.
•
If the winch fails to pull a load under normal conditions, manually stop the
operation, otherwise motor damage may occur.
•
Check that the clutch handle is in the "Engaged" position during and after
use.
•
Disconnect the wired remote control from the winch when not in use and
store in a safe, dry place.
•
Do not wrap the rope around the load and back onto itself. Always use a tree
trunk or winch extension strap.
•
Keep hands and clothing clear of the winch, rope, and fairlead opening.
•
Never unplug the remote control when winching a load.
•
To avoid insufficient power when winching a load, the vehicle should be
running and in neutral.
•
Keep the remote control clear of the rope at all times.
•
If noise or vibration occurs when operating, stop the winch immediately.
If there are any technical concerns speak to your place of purchase or
authorized dealer.
•
The rope must be wound in an under-wound orientation only to ensure
correct brake operation.
•
Always inspect the hook, latch and pin prior to use. Do not use if there are any
signs of excess distortion or bending.
•
Ensure the pin of the hook is secured using a correctly installed split/cotter pin.
