WARNING Do not exceed the rated capacity. DANGER Do not use this winch for lifting or moving people or animals. DANGER Keep yourself and others a safe distance to the side of the cable when under tension. DANGER Never step over a cable or near a cable under load.

14051 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 30 cm (12 in.) of the winch while re-spooling.

ENGLISH 14051 Operation General Tips for Safe Operation Your 14051 winch is rated at a 4,500 lb. (2041 kg) capacity in first layer (max) when spooling the first rope layer on the drum. Overloads can damage the winch, motor and/or synthetic rope. For loads over 2,250 lb. (1021 kg) we recommend the use of the pulley block/snatch block to double the synthetic rope line.
14051 ENGLISH Operation Synthetic Rope Abrasion Sleeve Winching Techniques A-Z Cont’d. The winch should be set up to avoid any rough surface from contacting the rope. If that is not possible, the abrasion sleeve can be used to help protect the rope. (A) (n) Clear the area. Make sure all spectators stand clear and that no one is directly in front or behind the vehicle or anchor point. (o) Begin winching. Be sure that the synthetic rope is winding evenly and tightly around the drum.
ENGLISH 14051 Maintenance The owner/operator is responsible for all periodic maintenance. WARNING Never operate a damaged or defective winch. WARNING Improper maintenance will void your warranty. Complete all scheduled maintenance in a timely manner. Correct any issue before operating the winch.
