The following operating instructions are intended to provide you with a basic understanding of your electric winch and to teach you the basics
of proper winching techniques. Users must understand that every winching situation has the potential for personal injury. In order to minimize
the risk to you and others in the area, it is important for you to read and understand this Owner’s Manual, familiarize yourself with the operation
of your winch prior to having to use it, carefully analyze each particular situation you are putting the winch to use, and constantly be aware of
the importance of safety.
Getting to Know the Components of Your Winch
Your winch contains the following component parts:
❶ Motor: The winch motor is powered by your vehicle’s 12 Volt DC battery. The winch motor provides power to the gear mechanism which
turns the winch drum and spools the winch cable in or out of the winch.
❷ Winch Drum: The winch drum is the cylinder onto which the winch cable is stored when the drum spools the cable in or out of the winch.
The winch drum is driven by the winch motor and gear drive train.
❸ Winch Cable: The winch cable is the metal cable that is wrapped around the winch drum. The winch hook is permanently attached to the
end of the winch cable.
❹ Winch Hook: The winch hook is used to attach the winch cable to the load to be pulled. The hook should be attached onto the load using
a pulling point, tow strap, or chain. Never wrap the winch cable around the object to be pulled and hook the winch hook onto the winch
cable itself.
❺Clutch Knob: The clutch knob allows you to manually disengage the winch drum from the motor and gear mechanism, enabling the winch
drum to rotate freely (known as “free spooling”). Engaging the clutch, “locks” the winch drum back onto the motor and gear mechanism.
❻ Winch Handsaver Strap: The winch handsaver strap is used to guide the winch cable. Always use when guiding winch cable in and out.
❼ Remote Control: The remote control enables you to operate the winch drum while standing clear of the winching process. Specifically,
it allows you to start, stop, and change the direction of the rotation of the winch drum.
