12003 ENGLISH WARNING When re-spooling the cable, ensure that the cable spools in the under-wind position with the cable entering the drum from the bottom, not the top. To re-spool correctly, and while wearing gloves, keep a slight load on the cable while pushing the remote button to draw in the cable. Walk toward the winch not allowing the cable to slide through your hands. Do not let your hands get within 12” of the winch while re-spooling.

ENGLISH 12003 Operation 9 General Tips for Safe Operation Self Recovery Your 12003 winch is rated at a 2000 lb. capacity in first layer (max) when spooling the first rope layer on the drum. Overloads can damage the winch, motor and/or wire rope. For loads over 1,000 lbs. (454 kg.) we recommend the use of the pulley block/snatch block to double the wire rope line.
12003 ENGLISH Operation Winching Techniques A-Z Winching Techniques A-Z Cont’d. (a) Take time to assess your situation and plan your pull. (b) Put on gloves to protect your hands.

(e) Pull out the wire rope to your desired anchor point using the hook strap. (f) Secure the clevis hook to the anchor point: Sling, chain or snatch block. Do not attach the hook back onto the wire rope.
