Serial Number Codes
The serial number codes are described on page 1-2 of
this manual. The nameplate with the serial number code
is found on the top left hand side of the winch case. The
serial number code is also stamped on the left hand side
of the winch frame.
Nameplate
The rated capacity for the winch, as it is equipped, is
shown on the nameplate. Each winch is shipped from the
factory with a nameplate as shown in Figure 1-3. If the
nameplate is missing, or the cable does not match the
information on the nameplate, do not operate the winch
until its capacity is known and a new nameplate is installed.
Each winch must be operated within its rated capacity as
shown on the nameplate.
If the winch is equipped with a log arch, the maximum
cable size may be reduced. Refer to the nameplate for
details.
