WINCH OPERATION-continue
7. Reengage the clutch by turning the Clutch Knob till it sits to the ENGAGE position.
8. Place a heavy rag or carpet(not inclucded) over the wire rope span,1.8 m from the hook to help
absorb the force released if the wire rope breaks.
Do not allow anyone to stand near the wire rope, or in line with the wire rope behind the winch while it
is under power. If the wire rope should slip or break, it can suddenly whip back towards the winch,
causing a hazard for anyone in the area. Stand well aside while winching.
9. Operate the control briefly to ensure they
work properly and in right direction. If
operation is reversed, the power cables
may be connected backwards.
Make correction before use.
10. While standing aside of the tow path,
press(and hold) the push button on the
remote control to pull the load. If the load
does not move, stop pulling and check for
obstacles blocking the load or check to
see if the load is too heavy for winch
capacity.Do not power the hook all the
way into the fairlead to prevent damage.
11. Do not operate the winch at extreme angle.

CAUTION:
The winch is designed for intermittent use only, and
should not be in a constant duty application. The duration of the pulling job should be kept as short as
possible. If the winch motor becomes very hot to touch, stop the winch and let it cool down for several
minutes. Never pull for more than one minute at or near the rated load. Do not maintain power to the
winch if the motor stalls as it can damage the motor or gears.
12. When pulling is complete, secure the load so it cannot move in either direction. Reverse the
direction of the winch to release the tension on the rope so that the hook can be unfastened from
the load.
WARNING:
