REPLACING THE WIRE ROPE
If the wire rope has become worn or is beginning to show signs of strands breaking, it
must be replaced before being used again.
1. Turning clutch to the “CLUTCH OUT” position.
2. Extend cable assembly to its full length. Note how the existing cable is connected
to the drum.
3. Remove old cable assembly and attach new one as the old cable connected to the
drum. Insert the end of the new rope and secure the screw M8x10(Part#X0950009) .
4. Ensure that the new cable wraps in the same rotation direction as the old one.
The cable should leave the drum from the bottom, under the drum.
5. Turning clutch to the “CLUTCH IN” position.
6. Retract Cable Assembly onto drum, first five wraps being careful not to allow
kinking, then winch cable must be wound onto the drum under a load of at least
10% rated line pull.
WARNING - Only replace the wire rope with the identical replacement part
recommended by the manufacturer.

manufacturer or an authorized repair center.
