SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Never lift people or lift loads over people.
2. Do not lift loads vertically, the winch was designed for horizontal use only.
3. Do not overload the winch. For loads over the specied maximum, use a more powerful model.
5. Never winch wire with less than 5 turns of wire rope around the winch drum. The rope fastener may not be able to
withstand the full load.
6. Avoid continuously pulling from extreme angles. This will cause the rope to pile up on one end of the drum, which
could jam the winch and cause damage to the winch or the rope.
7. Be sure to correctly attach the winch before starting to recall the rope.
8. When moving a load, slowly wing the rope until it becomes taut, then stop and check that the rope is correctly
winding before proceeding further.
9. It is recommended to lay a heavy blanket over the cable near the hook end when pulling heavy loads. If a cable
fails and snaps, the cloth will help prevent the cable from whipping out of control.
10. Do not move the winch to assist it in pulling the load. The combination of the winch moving and the cable being
pulled together could overload the cable and the winch.
11. Never work on/around the winch drum while the rope is being recalled. Keep ngers, hair and loose clothing and
jewelry away from the drum at all times. Stay clear of ropes, hooks and the winch. Do not let the rope slide through
your ngers while being recalled.
12. Do not let anyone cross over or under the rope while the winch is being used.
13. Never release the rope while it is under load.
14. After you have nished operating the winch, release the load and recall the remaining rope.
15. Inspect the rope before each use to make sure it is not frayed or broken.
16. Use caution when pulling or lowering a load up and down a ramp or incline. Keep the path clear and do not let
anyone stand beneath the load being pulled, they could get seriously hurt if the cable should break or the load should
slip.
