WINCH CONTROL VALVE
(OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT)
• Carlton Chippers may be equipped with
a hydraulic winch. The winch is used to
pull trees and brush that are too large to
carry to the chipper and to assist in
lifting the tree into the infeed tray.
• The winch has control levers on the
drum to put the winch in free spool, low
speed, high speed, or to lock the winch.
There is a decal on the side of the winch
casing to illustrate this operation. For
further information and service please
read the winch instruction manual. (The
levers may be in any position but the
correct words must be facing away from
the winch drum to perform the function.)
 To pull the winch rope to the tree,
put the winch in free spool by
turning both levers to FREE.
(Never put winch in free spool with
a load on the rope.) Always leave
at least 5 wraps on the drum
when unwinding the winch rope.
 To operate the winch at low speed,
put Lever 1 in LOW and Lever 2 in
FREE.
 To operate the winch at high speed,
put Lever 1 in FREE and Lever 2 in
HIGH.
 To lock the winch, put Lever 1 in
LOW and Lever 2 in HIGH.
