Attaching the Winch
Attention! Always wear gloves when handling the steel cable!
Hook the mounting plate (6) to the base plate of the winch. The
1.
opening of the winch for the steel cable has to face in the oppo-
site direction of the hole in the mounting plate.
If you have attached the winch to a motor vehicle, make sure the
2.
vehicle will not move under load. Do not put the vehicle in gear,
instead apply the parking brake and ideally use additional blocks
under the tires to keep the vehicle from moving.
Hang the mounting plate with the attached
3.
winch onto the trailer hitch of the vehicle.
Lead the hole completely over the ball of
the trailer hitch. It has to catch the neck of
the trailer hitch (as pictured on the right).
Loosen the clutch of the winch by turning
4.
the turn knob (2) counter clockwise for two
turns. Pull out the steel cable to the de-
sired length. Make sure that at least three
turns of steel cable remain on of the drum.
If necessary, ask a second person for
assistance.
Attach the hook to the object be drawn (using the object hitch,
5.
pull straps or quick-release hooks). Never attach the hook on
vehicle panels, beams, steering components, drive shafts, or
deck clamps! Do not loop the steel cable around the object and
never draw a loop with the hook!
Turn the clutch knob clockwise and firmly fasten the clutch.
