Never engage or disengage clutch if winch is under
WARNING
load, winch rope is in tension or drum is moving.
Step 7: LOCK THE CLUTCH. Lock the winch
drum by rotating the *clutch lever on the winch to
Engage.
*NOTE: WARN® offers multiple clutch control
configurations. See your specific winch operator's
guide for details on your particular clutch operation.
Step 8: *CONNECT THE REMOTE CONTROL. Be
careful not to let the remote control cord dangle
in front of the winch. If you choose to control the
winch from inside your vehicle, always pass the
remote through a window to avoid pinching the
cord in the door. Always disconnect the remote
control when not in use.
Never leave remote control where it can be activated
WARNING
during free spooling, rigging, or when the winch is not being used.
NOTE: WARN® offers a variety of remote control
options. See your specific winch operator's guide for
details on your particular remote control operation.
Step 9: PUT WINCH ROPE UNDER TENSION. Using
the winch switch, slowly wind the winch rope until
no slack remains. Once the winch rope is under
tension, stand well clear, and never step over it.

BEFORE YOU PULL
Step 10: CHECK YOUR ANCHOR. Make sure all
connections are secured and free of debris before
continuing with the winching procedure.

PULLING

Never use winch as a hoist or to suspend a load.
WARNING
Never use winch or winch rope for towing. Shock
WARNING
loads can damage, overload and break rope.
Never operate winch with less than 5 wraps of
WARNING
winch rope or 10 wraps of synthetic rope around the drum. Rope could
come loose from the drum, as the rope attachment to the drum is not
designed to hold a load.
As you probably have already noticed, there are
many things to do and consider before you actually
begin pulling. Think through what you're doing and
you can keep yourself and those around you out of
harm's way.
Operating your winch properly is so important,
in fact, you should practice these techniques before
having to face the distractions and stresses of a real
winching situation.
Step 11: CHECK WINCH ROPE. The winch
rope should be neatly wound around the spooling
drum. Improper winding can cause damage to the
winch rope.
Step 12: LAY SOMETHING OVER THE WINCH
ROPE , if you decide it is necessary, midway
between the winch and the anchor point to absorb
energy should the winch rope snap loose. Tree
limbs, heavy jackets, chain, back pack and the like
may be used for this purpose.

PULLING
Establish "no people"
zones:
Step 13: MAKE YOUR INTENTIONS CLEAR.
Be sure that everyone in the immediate vicinity
surrounding the winching operation is completely
aware of your intentions before you pull.
Declare where the spectators should not stand
— never behind or in front of the vehicle and never
near the winch rope or snatch block. Your situation
may have other "no people" zones.
Step 14: BEGIN WINCHING. With the winching
vehicle's engine on and light tension already on the
winch rope, begin winching slowly and steadily.
Be sure that the winch rope is winding evenly and
tightly around the spooling drum. For additional
assistance, the winched vehicle can be slowly driven
while being pulled by the winch.
NOTICE Always avoid continuous side pulls which can pile up winch
rope at one end of the drum. This pile up of wire can damage winch rope
or winch.
Step 15: FOR VEHICLE RECOVERY , continue
pulling until the vehicle is on stable ground. If you are
able to drive the vehicle, the winching operation is
complete.

Step 16: SECURE VEHICLE. Once recovery
of the vehicle is complete, be sure to secure the
vehicle's brakes and put the Transmission in "park"
(automatic) or "low" gear for (manual) transmissions.
Release tension in the winch rope.
NOTICE Avoid over heating the winch motor. For extended winch ing,
stop at reasonable intervals to allow the winch motor to cool down.
What to look for under load
The winch rope must always spool onto the
drum as indicated by the drum rotation decal on
the winch.
As you power in, make sure the winch rope
winds evenly and tightly on the drum. This prevents
the outer wire wraps from drawing into the inner
wraps, binding and damaging the winch rope.
Avoid shock loads by using the control switch
intermittently to take up winch rope slack. Shock
loads can momentarily far exceed the winch and
winch rope ratings.
During side pulls the winch rope tends to stack
up at one end of the drum. This stack can become
large enough to cause serious damage to the winch.
So, line up pulls as straight ahead as possible and
stop winching if the winch rope comes close to the
tie rods or mounting plate. To fi x an uneven stack,
spool out that section of the rope and reposition it
to the opposite end of the drum which will free up
space for continued winching.
