Check all safety and environmental conditions prior and during use.
The winches duty rating is S3 (intermittent – periodic)
Ensure that the winch is connected to the correct voltage of 12VDC only.
Check that the freespool shifter is in the “Engaged” position during and after use.
Remove the remote control from the winch when not in use.
Keep hands and clothes away from the winch, wire rope, and fairlead during operation.
Never unplug the remote control and battery leads when winching a load.
Before use, ensure that you are familiar with all winching performance and operation
such as speed & direction.
A wire rope should be replaced if it shows signs of excessive wear, broken wires,
corrosion or any other defects.
The winch is rated for intermittent-periodic duty.
Never operate the winch under water.
The winch is not to be used to lift, support or otherwise transport personnel.
A minimum of five (5) wraps of rope around the drum are necessary to support the
rated load.
Operate the winch cable in and cable out at no load after a winch was ingressed
by water.
The rated line pull of the winch must be powerful enough to overcome the added
resistance caused by whatever the vehicle is stuck in.
If the winch fails to pull a load under normal conditions, stop the operation within
30 seconds otherwise motor damage may occur.
Do not wrap the wire rope around the load and back onto it self. Always use a strap
to ensure that the wire rope does not fray or kink.
To avoid insufficient power when winching a load, the vehicle should be running and
in neutral.
When winching a heavy load, lay a heavy blanket or jacket over the wire rope near to
the hook end
If excessive noise or vibration occurs when running, stop the winch immediately and
return it for repair.
WARNING

To avoid injury to hands and fingers:
• Always wear heavy leather gloves when handling a wire rope.
• Never let wire rope slip through your hands.
• Always be aware of possible hot surface at winch motor, drum or wire rope during or
after winch use.
Moving Parts Entanglement Hazard
Failure to observe these instructions could lead to minor to moderate injury.
• Never apply load to hook tip or latch. Apply load only to the center of hook.
• Never use a hook whose throat opening has increased, or whose tip is bent or twisted.

1. It is very important that the winch shall be mounted on a flat hard surface in order to
make sure the motor, drum and gearbox housing are aligned correctly.
2. If a different mounting plate is used, the thickness shall be 5 mm (3/16”). If different
hardware is used, it must be grade 8 minimum.
3. Four (4) included M8x 25L Grade 8.8 High Tensile Steel Bolts must be used for securing
the winch on the mounting plate in order to sustain the loads imposed on the winch
mounting.
4. Two (2) included M8 x 20L Grade 8.8 High Tensile Steel Bolts must be used for securing
the roller fairlead on the mounting plate.

OPERATION
CABLE IN AND OUT
Handlebar mounted trigger switch can be operated without removing your hand from the grip.
• It is recommended that the switch be installed on the left handlebar. A piece of electrical
tape around the handlebar will help prevent rotation of mount on the handle bar.
• Do NOT tighten over any hoses or cables.
1). To determine “ Cable Out “, turn to the “Out” position
2). To determine “ Cable In “, turn to the “In” position
3). To stop winching, release the trigger level

The freespool allows rapid pay-out of the wire rope for hooking onto a load or anchor points
and is operated by a freespool shifter located on the end of the winch.
1). To engage the freespool, turn the freespool shifter counter-clockwise to the “Engaged”
position. The winch is now ready for pulling.
2). To disengage the freespool, turn the freespool shifter clockwise to the “Disengaged”
position. Wire rope can now be free spooled off the drum.
Before installing a new wire rope, wrap the end of the wire rope with tape to prevent fraying.
Wind the wire rope on the drum by pull a force to keep the tension constant. Never use a
wire rope of a different size or material and only use aircraft grade wire ropes.
1). Disengage the freespool.
2). Spool the old wire rope, and then remove it from the drum.
3). Have horizontal roller and bolts apart from the roller fairlead, then place the replacement
wire rope through the roller fairlead throat, pass below the drum, and insert it into the
hole on the drum core.
4). Use a hex wrench to tighten the screw downwards to secure the wire rope.
5). Tighten the horizontal roller and bolt of roller fairlead
6). Wear leather gloves and use a strap when guiding the wire rope off the drum.

LUBRICATION
All moving parts in the winch are permanently lubricated at the time of assembly. Under
normal conditions factory lubrication will suffice. If re-lubrication is necessary after repair
or disassembly use a marine type grease.
7). It is very important that the winch shall be mounted on a flat surface, with the wire rope
feeding form the bottom of the drum.
8). To rewind wire rope on the drum correctly , it is necessary to keep a slight load on the
wire rope while cable in.
CHECK THE SYSTEM
Before using the winch, verify the following:
1) Wiring to all components is correct. All loose wires are tie wrapped tight.
2) There are no exposed wiring or terminals. Cover any existing terminal exposures with
terminal boots, heat shrink tubing or electricians tape.
3) Turn ATV key switch to ON position. Check winch for proper operation. The wire rope
should spool in and out in the direction indicated on the switch.
KNOW YOUR WINCH
• Take time to fully understand your winch and the winching operation by reviewing the
manual with your winch.

When the winch fails to operate after several attempts, or if there is any fault operation while
winching, check followings.
