1. Determine the location of the circuit
breaker. The circuit breaker should be
mounted vertically, close to the battery
and in an easily accessible position. (See
also Circuit breaker safety switch
installation on next page).
2. Measure the distance from the battery to
the motor (and back) via the circuit
breaker to determine the necessary total
cable length and thickness (see wiring
diagram). The cable should be as short as
possible to minimise voltage drop from
the battery to the motor. A thicker cable
(than suggested in the wiring diagram)
will also reduce voltage drop.
IMPORTANT WARNING Reverse
installation of the power cables will
permanently damage the motor.
3. Connect the negative black terminal on
the motor (tighten the terminal bolts with
max 12Nm torque) to the negative
terminal on the battery.
4. Connect the red positive terminal on the
motor (tighten the terminal bolts with
max 12Nm torque) to the circuit breaker
end marked “winch” (tighten breaker
circuit bolts with max 5Nm torque).
Connect the other end of the circuit
breaker “power” to the battery (ensure
the circuit breaker is in the “OFF”
position). A low amperage switch can be
installed on your control panel with the
help of a solenoid relay as described in
the wiring diagram. Appropriate solenoid
relays are available from your Andersen
dealer.
5. Determine the position of the switch (es),
and drill the appropriate
hole(s)(Ø25mm).To avoid accidentally
activating the wrong winch and the risk
of subsequent personal injury or damage
to equipment, it is recommended that
switches be mounted in close vicinity to
the winch.
6. Connect the switch control cable
extension to the motor and then push the
other end up through the switch hole in
the deck. Attach the cable to the switch
(with the switches rubber gasket in
place). Position the switch and screw it in
place. (Do not block the breather hole on
the side of the switch) The motor is
provided with 1m of cable. If longer
cable is required, contact your Andersen
dealer for an extension cable.
7. When cleaning, don't use solvents on the
cables. It can cause serious injuries. Instead
use ethanol for cleaning.
NOTE: Care must be taken that the breather
hole on the side of the switch, is not blocked.
The breather hole is either a Ø2 mm hole, or a
milled 2mm track.
