18. Equipment such as hooks, pulley blocks, straps, etc.
should be sized for winch capacity and periodically
inspected for damage that could reduce their strength.
19. NEVER RELEASE FREESPOOL CLUTCH WHEN THERE
IS A LOAD ON THE WINCH.
20. NEVER WORK ON OR AROUND THE WINCH DRUM
WHEN WINCH OR WIRE ROPE IS UNDER LOAD.
21. DO NOT OPERATE WINCH WHEN UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ANY DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.
22. ALWAYS DISCONNECT WINCH POWER LEADS TO BATTERY BEFORE WORKING ON OR AROUND THE
WINCH DRUM so that Winch cannot be turned on accidentally.
23. When moving a load, slowly take up wire rope slack until it is taut. Stop, recheck all Winching
connections. Be sure the hook is properly seated. If a nylon sling is used, check the attachment to
the load.
24. When using a vehicle mounted Winch to move a load, place the vehicle transmission in neutral (never in
Park), set vehicle hand-brake, and chock all wheels.
25. DO NOT USE THE WINCH TO HOLD LOADS IN PLACE. Use other means of securing loads such as
KEEPER brand tie-down straps. For tie-down information go to www.keepercorp.com
26. USE ONLY FACTORY APPROVED SWITCHES, ADAPTERS, REMOTE CONTROLS AND
ACCESSORIES. Use of non-factory approved components may cause injury or property damage
and could void your warranty.
27. DO NOT MACHINE OR WELD ANY PART OF THE WINCH. Such alteration may weaken the structural
integrity of the Winch and could void your warranty.
28. This is a 12 Volt DC Winch. CONNECT ONLY TO 12 VOLT DC BATTERY. DO NOT CONNECT WINCH TO
EITHER 110V OR 220V AC CURRENT AS WINCH WILL BURN OUT OR FATAL SHOCK WILL OCCUR.
This will void warranty.
29. Never allow shock loads to be applied to Winch or wire rope.
30. Use extreme caution when winching a load up and down a ramp or incline.
31. Keep people, other than operator, pets, and property clear of Winching path, front, rear and sides for 60'
32. The Hand Crank provided with your winch is for emergency use only (i.e. in case of battery failure).
Never use the Hand Crank to assist your winch when it is running. Always remove the Hand Crank
when your winch is not in use. Do Not operate your winch or allow your winch to freewheel with the
Hand Crank INSTALLED.
14. OUR WINCH IS NOT INTENDED FOR OVER
HEAD HOISTING OPERATIONS.
15. AVOID CONTINUOUS PULLS FROM
EXTREME ANGLES. This will cause the
wire rope to pileup on one end of the drum
(Figure 6). This can jam the wire rope in the
Winch, causing damage to the wire rope or
Winch.

16. NEVER OBSCURE THE WARNING
INSTRUCTION LABELS ON THE WINCH.
17. Always operate Winch with an unobstructed
view of the Winching operation.
