WARNING
Do not use any attachments to extend the length of the winch strap.
Always leave at least five wraps of strap on the drum. Failure to do so
may break strap connection to the drum and could result in serious injury.
Make sure the winch base is properly bolted to a structure or vehicle that can hold both the winch and
winch load. Failure to properly bolt down the winch can result in personal injury and / or property damage.
After moving an object with the winch, secure the object.
Do not rely on the winch to hold an object for an extended period of time.
Do not apply a load to the winch when the winch strap is fully extended.
The strap anchor on the winch is not capable of holding the maximum rated load capacity.
When loading a boat onto a trailer without keel or side hull rollers, make sure the trailer is
submerged in the water when the boat is loaded by the winch. Attempting to drag the boat onto
the trailer while on land can cause winch failure and possibly personal injury and property damage.
Stand back and stay out of the direct line that the winch strap is pulling.
In the event the winch strap slips or breaks, it will 'whip-lash' along this line.
Keep work area clean and dry; damp, cluttered and wet areas invite injuries.
Keep children away from the work area and do not allow them to handle the winch.
Use eye and hand protection. Wear impact safety glasses
and heavy duty work gloves when using the winch.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that can be caught in moving parts. Wear
protective hair covering to prevent long hair from becoming caught. If wearing a
long sleeve shirt, roll the sleeves up to the elbows. Do not overreach the winch.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times to prevent tripping, falling, back injury, etc.
Check for damaged parts and any other conditions that may affect operation
of this winch. Carefully check that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Replace or repair damaged or worn parts immediately.
Check the strap before each use for signs of wear. If strap show signs of wear, replace immediately.
Always maintain a firm grip on the winch handle and do not release the handle until the ratchet pawl
is properly engaged. Release handle slowly to be sure that ratchet lever is fully supporting the load.
Never use a hand winch for lifting equipment or humans.
