FREE-SPOOL CLUTCH INSTRUCTIONS Visually check that clutch and clutch handle are fully engaged, before operating the winch drum under load. Do not attempt to move the clutch shift handle with a load on the cable. Do not use “cheaters” to extend the shift handle length or other means to apply undue force on the shift handle. A partially engaged drum clutch may jump out of engagement causing a sudden loss of load control which may result in property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
