MOUNTING YOUR WINCH
Your winch is designed to be mounted temporarily ,using the Trailer Hitch Mounting
Bracket .However, you may also mount your winch permanently.
Permanent Mounting
1. Select a mounting site on the bumper of your vehicle ,truck bed ,boat trailer ,or other
suitable location. NOTE: This winch can generate 2,000Lbs.pulling force. Be sure the
location you select can withstand thismuch force.You may need to use steel reinforcement
plates, or weld on additional bracing, depending on the desired mounting location.
2.Align the winch with the desired location, and mark for drilling the locations of the 2 holes
on the base of the winch.
3. Drill these 2 holes locations on your vehicle.
4. Using hardened steel bolts at least M8 in diameter, install your winch to the location.
Temporary Mounting
1. Attach the Adapter Plate, as shown:
2. Index the heads of the plate studs into the keyhole slots on the back of the winch.
3. Attach the Winch/Adapter Plate assembly to your trailer hitch, by inserting the trailer
hitch ball through the shaped hole in the Adapter Plate.
USING YOUR WINCH
1. Put your vehicle in Neutral. (Never winch with your vehicle in Gear or in Park, since this
could damage your vehicle's transmission.) Put your emergency brake On. Block the
wheels from rolling, using suitable chocks.
2. To pull out the cable turn the CLUTCH KNOB (#15) clockwise UNLOAD to loosen it,
then pull out the cable you need .Always leave at least five turns of cable on the spool to
prevent pulling the cable out of the winch.
3. Hook onto the object using a pulling point ,tow strap or chain. Never wrap the cable
around the object and hook onto the cable itself. This can cause damage to the object
being pulled ,and kink or fray the cable.
4. Turn the clutch knob counterclockwise to LOAD.
5. when it is safe to do so, use the power switch in the remote control to retract the cable,
and winch the item as desired.
PULLING CAPACITY
1. This winch has a capacity of 2,000Lbs.Applying this measurement to practical
applications, you can use this winch to move the following.
a. Move a load from a dead stop of up to 2,000Lbs,on level ground.
b. Move a water Bourne craft of up to 5,000Lbs.
C. Maintain movement of a wheeled vehicle of up to 6,000Lbs.
2. Pulling Capacity is reduced as incline increases. For example, rolling capacityis reduced
from 6,000Lbs on flat ground to 1,100Lbs.on a 45 incline. Please refer to the following
chart for esti-mated pulling capacity (rolling weight) on various inclines.
