MOVING PART HAZARDS
To prevent serious injury and

property damage:

• Do not operate or install winch

without reading and under-
standing these instructions
and the Basic Guide to Winch-
ing Techniques.

• Keep hands clear of wire

rope, hook and fairlead open-
ing during operation and
when spooling.

• Use supplied hook strap

for spooling wire rope.

• Stand clear of wire rope and

load during operation.

• Keep others away.
• Inspect winch installation and

wire rope condition before
operating winch.

• Do not use as a hoist.
• Do not use to move persons.
• Do not exceed winch’s rated

capacity.

• Never touch wire rope or

hook while in tension.

• Be certain the anchor you

select will withstand load.

• Never wrap wire rope back

onto itself. Use a choker chain
or tree trunk protector on the
anchor.

• Prior to initiating winching

operation be sure any ele-
ment which can interfere with
safe winching is removed.

• Do not disengage clutch if

winch is under load or wire

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

TO AVOID INJURY AND PROPERTY
DAMAGE:
• Do not use winch to secure a

load during transport.

• Do not submerge

in water.

• Do not use to tow other

vehicles.

• Wear heavy leather gloves

when handling the wire rope.

• Never winch with less than 5

wraps of wire rope around the
drum.

• Caution should be used if the

vehicle is tied down during a
winching operation. This may
lead to damage to the frame.

• Before winching, inspect re-

mote control lead for damage.

WARNING!

CAUTION!

As you read these instructions, you will see WARNINGS and CAUTIONS. Each
message has a specific purpose. WARNINGS and CAUTIONS identify the hazard,
indicate how to avoid the hazard, and advise of the probable consequence of not
avoiding the hazard. PLEASE WORK SAFELY!

WARNINGS are safety messages that indicate a potentially hazardous situation,
which, if not avoided can result in serious injury or death.

CAUTIONS are safety messages that indicate a potentially hazardous situation, which,
if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. A CAUTION may also be used to
alert against unsafe practice.

• Take your time. Sloppy rig-

ging causes accidents.

• The wire rope must always

spool onto the drum as indi-
cated by the drum rotation
label on the winch.

BATTERY HAZARDS
• Batteries contain gasses

which are flammable.

• Wear eye protection.
• Remove all metal jewelery.
• Do not lean over battery while

making connections.

• Failure to take proper precau-

tion may result in fire or seri-
ous injury.
