MAINTENANCE
• Regularly check that all screw unions and
electrical connections are correctly
tightened. Tighten if necessary.
• Remove all impurities and corrosion.
REPLACING WIRE
The winch must not be used if the wire shows
signs of wear or has broken threads. The wire
must be replaced before using the winch
again.
1. Disengage the winch drum by placing the
clutch lever in the CLUTCH OUT position.
2. Pull out the complete wire. Check and
memorise how the wire is mounted and
fastened on the drum.
3. Remove the old wire from the drum and
fit and fasten a new wire in the same way
as the old one. Put in the end of the new
wire and tighten the M5 x 8 screw.
4. The new wire should have the same
winding direction as the old one – the
wire should run out from the underside of
the drum.
5. Engage the winch drum drive by putting
the clutch lever in the CLUTCH IN position.
6. Wind in the new wire on the drum.
Carefully check that the first five rounds
of wire are wound on the drum uniformly
and without kinks or irregularity. After the
first five turns have been wound correctly,
the remainder of the wire should be
wound onto the drum with the wire under
a load of at least 10% of the allowable
nominal wire pulling force, to keep it well
tensioned and wound correctly.
WARNING!
Only use approved spare parts recommended
by the manufacturer.
