WINCH ACCESSORIES YOU'LL WANT TO HAVE WITH YOU
Alone, the winch is not much more than a simple
tool. But when used with certain accessories and
enhancements, your WARN winch can become
a versatile and productive tool. In this section,
we'll review several of these items. Some are vital
to the safe operation of your winch, while others
off er added versatility and convenience.
Gloves Winch rope, through use, will develop
"barbs" which can slice skin. It is extremely
important to wear protective gloves while operating
the winch or handling the winch rope. Avoid loose
fitting clothes or anything that could become
entangled in the winch rope and other moving
parts.
Hook Strap Use to hold the hook and keep
fingers away from the fairlead as the winch rope
is being spooled in. Winches develop tremendous
pulling forces and can easily remove fingers and
limbs that are placed in pinch points. Put the hook
into the loop and hold the strap between the
thumb and forefingers.
Always use supplied hook strap whenever spooling
WARNING
winch rope in or out, during installation and during operation.

Snatch Block Used properly, the multi-purpose
snatch block allows you to:
(1) increase your winch's pulling power; and (2)
change your pulling direction without damaging
the winch rope. Proper use of the snatch block is
covered in "Before You Pull".
Clevis/D-Shackles The D-Shackle is a safe means
for connecting the looped ends of cables, straps and
snatch blocks. The shackle's pin is threaded to allow
easy removal.
Tow Hooks Secured properly to your vehicle's
frame, tow hooks provide an attachment point for
wire hooks, straps, and chains.

Tree Trunk Protector Typically made of tough,
high-quality nylon, it provides the operator an
attachment point for the winch rope to a wide
variety of anchor points and objects, as well as
protect living trees.
Never use a strap for winching.
CAUTION
Never use a strap for towing. The strap can be easily
CAUTION
cut or abraded.
Never use "bungie" straps that develop tremendous
CAUTION
and potentially dan ger ous amounts of force when stretched.
Recovery Strap Never use a recovery strap in
a winching operation. Because it is designed to
stretch, it stores energy and could react like a rubber
band should your rigging fail. Use the recovery strap
to "snatch" out a stuck vehicle.
The WARN Winch Damper helps to prevent rope
recoil in the event of a rope failure, which is a pretty
rare occurrence. However, if it were to happen, this
damper will help the rope fall to the ground if such
an event were to occur. Place it on the winch rope
midway between the winch and the anchor point.
Do this before the winch rope is put under tension.
Do not approach or move the damper once tension
is applied. Do not allow it to get pulled into the
fairlead.

Shovels & Hand Tools Quite often during
winching activities, you'll find yourself in need
of some additional help. You may want to stow
equipment such as a shovel, an axe and a Hi-Lift jack
for additional assistance when needed.
Backup Parts Important backup parts to carry for
back country travel should include an extra screw-
pin shackle, snatch block and remote control. For
severe and continued winch use, consider including
an extra winch rope and winch hook.
Toolbox Items to bring along include hand
wrenches, screwdrivers, pliers, and tools to change
winch rope.
Booster Cables Many roadside emergencies
stem from a dead battery. To prevent exhausting
your electrical source, you can install a dual battery
system and a battery isolator kit. Also, it's wise to
include battery booster cables and the WARN quick-
connect cable system.
Battery Recommendations A fully charged
conventional automotive battery with a minimum
rating of 650 cold cranking amps is recommended
to obtain peak performance from your winch. Make
sure all electrical connec tions are clean and tight.
