WINCH INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
4. Run the long cable up and OVER
BOTH ROLLER BRACKETS and feed
into winch.
Be sure to thread 12 inches
(1 foot) of extra cable through winch.
5. Once winch cable has been threaded, pull excess
cable back through winch as shown in diagram
above. The cable should be locked tightly around
itself with no excess cable left hanging.
Operate
winch enough to remove slack from longer cable.

8. Install pre-attached eye bolt on SHORTER cable to press bed
handle located under winch after feeding it around in step 7.
7. Feed the short cable by running it up and OVER first roller, then UNDER second roller. Loop the short cable back toward the winch and securely attach to the longer cable
using the cable clamp. Remove slack from short cable before securing to long cable. Clamp should be NO LESS THAN ONE INCH (1") from roller.
9. Turn eye hooks to adjust and level press bed. Once bed is level,
firmly tighten eye hook mounting hardware. The steel cable
will stretch with use. It may be necessary to repeat this leveling
procedure in the future.
10. Test the winch kit by raising and lowering the press bed from
its lowest to highest position. Repeat and adjust until bed is
level and moves freely throughout its entire range of motion.
Cut excess cable when all adjustments are complete.
