INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CONTINUED
4) Gaps can be adjusted as required by adjusting Jacking Screw diagonally opposite to the Gap. Reduce a gap
by turning Jacking Screw clockwise or increase a gap by turning Jack Screw counterclockwise.
To adjust Gap “A” TURN Jacking Screw “A”.
To adjust Gap “B” TURN Jacking Screw “B”.
To adjust Gap “C” TURN Jacking Screw “C”.
To adjust Gap “D” TURN Jacking Screw “D”.
5) Measure the space underneath the four mounting pads with a feeler gauge and use shim stock of equivalent
thickness in the space between the mounting pad and the mounting surface. Install mounting bolts (for bolt
size and grade refer to INSTALLATION DRAWING). Tighten mounting bolts per BOLT TORQUE CHART.
6) Fill the winch with lubricating oil up to Oil Level Plug on End Cover or see SPECIFICATIONS for oil volume
required.
7) Use recommended circuit components and hydraulic hoses.
8) The Circulation Return line of the winch should be plumbed in such a manner that the brake housing remains
full of oil at all times. Connect the return line directly to reservoir. Do not connect to a common return line.
9) Before operating the winch with a load, verify adequate circulation flow through the Circulation Return Line as
stated in TYPICAL HYDRAULIC CIRCUIT. Verify that pressure inside the brake housing, measured at the
Circulation Supply Port does not exceed the permissible pressure stated in SPECIFICATIONS.
10) Verify that Breather Relief item 130 is in place on End Cover item 120 above oil level. Rotate End Cover if Breather
Relief is below oil level.
IMPORTANT: Do not replace breather relief with a pipe plug. The breather relief does not prevent oil seal failure
but serves as an indicator or warning that the oil seals between brake housing and the cable drum interior have
failed and must be replaced immediately. If these oil seals are changed, additional failure of the drum seal and
potential damage to the end cover is prevented.
