SYSTEM CHECK

Before using the winch, verify the following:

• Wiring to all components is correct. All loose wires are cable tied tight.

• There are no exposed wiring or terminals (cover any existing exposures

with insulator plate), terminal boots, heat shrink tubing, or electricians’

tape.

• The solenoid is properly grounded.

• Turn ATV key switch to ON position. Check winch for proper

operation.

Testing The Winch And Controls

1. With the ignition switch off and the key removed, turn the winch

selector knob to the “freespool” position. Pull out approximately two to

three feet of cable from the winch reel.

2. Turn the winch selector knob to the “engaged” position; then insert the

ignition key into the ignition switch, and turn to the ON position.

3. Place the winch control in the “IN” position and observe the movement

of the winch cable. If the cable does not wind onto the reel in the proper

direction, reverse the lead connections on the winch motor terminals

and test the winch again.



NOTE: The cable must wind and spool from the top of the reel.

 NOTE: The wire cable must always spool onto the drum as indicated

by the drum rotation decal on the winch frame.

CAUTION

KNOW THE WINCH: Take time to fully understand the winch and the

winching operation.
