Know Your Winch - Warn Autogoods 130 Guide D'installation Et Operateur

Before you begin, you should familiarize yourself with your WARN Drill Winch and each of
its components:
Winch Drum Viewing
Window
Clutch Dial
5/16" Drill/Driver Shaft: The winch is powered by a standard drill/driver (non-impact).
The 5/16" drill/driver shaft provides torque to the gear
mechanism, which turns the winch drum and winds and
unwinds the winch rope.
Winch Drum
Viewing Window: The winch drum viewing window is a cut out on top of the
winch to view the winch rope winding on the winch drum.
Rope: The winch rope is wrapped around the winch drum and fed
through the fairlead. The winch rope is looped at the end to
accept the hook's clevis pin. The winch rope's diameter and
length is sized according to the winch's load capacity and
design.
Gear Train: The gear train converts the drill's torque into a large winching
force. The gear train design makes it possible for the winch to be
lighter and more compact.
Clutch Dial: The clutch dial allows the operator to manually disengage
(unlock) the drum from the gear train, enabling the drum to
rotate freely (known as "freespooling"). Engaging the clutch
"locks" the winch drum back onto the gear train.
Rope Hook: The rope hook is attached to the end of the winch rope. The
rope hook is rated according to the winch's capacity. Hooks are
usually used in combination with straps or chains.
Anchor Hook: The anchor hook is fastened to the anchor point. A strap will be
connected to the hook and then secured to a solid connection
(anchor).
Fairlead: The fairlead acts to guide the winch rope onto the drum.

DRILL WINCH MECHANICS
Before using your WARN Drill Winch it is
essential to understand how it works and
the functions of the key components.
Always Know Your Winch. Take time to
WARNING
fully read the Operations Guide in order to understand
your winch and its operations.
WARNING Always read and understand your drill/
driver operator's manual and instructions.
How the Drill Winch Reacts to Load
The Drill Winch is rated by winching
capacity. The maximum winching torque
occurs when there is only one layer of
winch rope on the drum. As the layers
of winch rope on the drum increase, the
pulling power decreases. This is the basics
of mechanical advantage.

Load Limiter
Never engage or disengage clutch if
WARNING
winch is under load, winch rope is in tension or drum is
moving.
Never touch winch rope or hook while
WARNING
under tension or under load.
Exceeding the Drill Winch capacity will
cause the mechanical load limiter to ratchet,
which interrupts the power from the drill/
driver. With increasing load the ratcheting
frequency increases resulting in a reduction
in the line speed. When this occurs, stop
winching, reverse direction of drill/driver
and power-out to reduce the load. Never
use freespool clutch when the winch rope is
under load.
Do not attempt to apply the same load if
the load limiter continues to ratchet, as this
can damage the unit.
If the load limiter continues to ratchet,
perform the following actions:
1) Reduce the weight of the load.
2) Increase the distance of the anchor point.

Autogoods "130"
The maximum pulling capacity occurs from
the first layer of winch rope on the drum.
By increasing the distance between the Drill
Winch and the anchor point, it decreases
the layers of winch rope on the drum,
therefore increasing the pulling power.
Run Time/Duty Cycle
Follow the your drill/driver manufacturer's
recommended run times and cooling times.

The Drill Winch is controlled by a standard
drill/driver.

The rotation control switch is commonly
located near the speed trigger. NOTE: See
your specific drill/driver instructions for your
specific rotation control switch placement
and operation.
