    1 answer

      Helpful?

  3. How does this winch hold up under long pulls

    1 answer

    1. This winch is designed for intermittent use only. Keep the duration of the pulling job as short as possible. If the motor becomes very hot to the touch, stop and let it cool down for several minutes. Do not pull the load. Do not maintain power to the winch if the motor stalls. Double line rigging will help prevent overloading and should be used whenever practical.

  5. Is the solenoid removable to be relocated?

    1 answer

    1. The solenoid box can be moved. It should be mounted in a place near enough to the winch to allow the cables to be routed properly.

      Helpful?

  6. how does it wire up

    1 answer

    1. Plan a route for the wiring from the point of the vehicle where the winch will be mounted, or used,
      to the battery. This route must be secure, out of the way of moving parts, road debris, or any
      possibility of being damaged by operation or maintenance of the vehicle. For example, you may
      wish to route the wires under the vehicle, attaching it to the frame using suitable fasteners. Do not
      attach the wires to the exhaust system, drive shaft, emergency brake cable, fuel line, or any other
      components which may create damage the wiring through heat or motion, or create a fire hazard.

      If you drill through the bumper or any part of the body to route the wires, be sure to install a rubber
      grommet in the hole to prevent fraying of the wires at that point.

      Route the cables from the solenoid to the battery and from the solenoid to the winch, following the
      precautions discussed above.

      Attach the red, black, and yellow cables to the terminals on the winch. The winch terminals are
      color-coded.

      Attach the black battery cable directly to the negative terminal of the battery.

      Lift the socket cover exposing the electrical switch connector. Insert the pendant connector into
      the socket.

      Note:
      The attachment of the motor cables determines the direction of the pendant controller’s button.
      After the unit is mounted and powered, check the direction of the power IN and power OUT on the
      pendant controller button, if you wish to change the direction on the pendant controller, disconnect
      the battery cables from the battery, switch the motor cable connections on the motor assembly,
      then reconnect the battery cables.

      Helpful?

  10. How can I get a replacement control box and mounting hardware?
