Details on increasing pulling capacity using a pulley block and hook for double line operation.
Winch is not designed for lifting people or loads over occupied areas.
Respect power, avoid overloads, keep area clear, secure loads, handle cable properly.
Use GFCI, grounded outlets, avoid water, check cord, mount securely.
Emergency use only; never assist motor when running.
Ensure mounting surface can support loads well in excess of winch capacity.
Use three 1/2" bolts, nuts, washers, and lock washers; ensure proper cable path.
Install a strong eyehook near winch base for stationary cable hook in double line use.
Use keyhole slots with shoulder studs for quick mounting; secure with 3/8" bolt.
Operate winch using the switch in the 'in' or 'out' direction for loading/unloading.
Take care to avoid overload as winch lacks circuit breaker protection.
Motor is for intermittent use only; extended use without cooling can cause damage.
Unplug winch from power supply when not in use to prevent damage from surges.
Lever releases load without power, allowing free wheeling for cable removal.
Rotate lever slowly to release load, maintaining control of speed.
Lever must return to 'Engaged Gears' for powering winch or holding a load.
Never force the clutch lever in either direction.
Use emergency crank handle for power failures; remove electrical power first.
Insert handle to engage drive shaft; clutch can be in free wheel for easier cranking.
Maintain firm grip on handle during free wheel cranking; it can spin violently.
Always remove the handle after use and replace the plastic plug.
Inspect cable for damage; replace if kinked, frayed, or stiff. Consult website for troubleshooting.
Grease gears and oil bearings sparingly; keep clutch mechanism and brake parts clean.
Verify roller clutch operation: motor shaft should turn with disc clockwise, not counter-clockwise.
Adjust clutch spring tension in ten-degree increments for proper engagement.
Ensure pulley rotates freely on the bronze pulley spacer; occasional greasing recommended.
