OPERATING PROCEDURES
Read all of this manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notices, Cautions, Warnings, and Dangers.
Do not attempt to pull loads exceeding1500 lbs. (680 kg).
To pull out the cable, the free spool clutch knob must be used. Pull out and rotate the knob. If the
cable is under any load the clutch may not release easily. Jog out some of the cable to release the
tension and operate clutch. Pull out the desired amount of cable and secure. Engage the drum by
rotating the knob until it snaps in place. Never operate the winch unless the clutch is engaged.
Have all persons and pets leave the area while operating winch. Never allow anyone to remain in
the vehicle.

To prevent damage to the wire cable, never hook the cable to itself. Always use a nylon sling.
Stay clear of the winch, the cable and the cable hook. Place a heavy cloth, jacket or blanket over
the cable to act as a damper should the cable break when operating the winch.
Remember that the winch operation will drain the battery and may leave insufficient power to start
the vehicle.
When operating the winch, keep the entire area in view.
Never release the free spool clutch while the cable is under load.
Never work around the winch drum or the winch cable while it is under tension.
Unplug the winch switch before working on the winch drum in order to prevent inadvertent
operation.
