Safety Rules
CAUTION
• Rope must be controlled while recoiling to
prevent personal injury or damage.
• Device contains a coiled spring under
tension. Do NOT remove nuts securing the
housing.
• Do NOT jerk load the rope. Jerk loading
the rope may cause personal injury, death,
or vehicle damage.
• Protect rope from sharp edges and
extreme heat. Prior to each use inspect
the rope for cuts, abrasions, or hard
spots. If rope shows signs of wear replace
immediately.
• Towing another vehicle will affect how
your vehicle handles and will reduce its
ability to accelerate, make turns, and
other maneuvers.
• Prior to attaching to an immovable object
during a winch operation, ensure that the
rigging does not produce a load in excess
of 2,400 lbs for any rope section. Proper
double line rigging will reduce the load of
each rope section. Refer to winch OEM
manual for proper rigging.
