Step 2 - Install the Wiring
WARNING
To prevent serious injury or death. Always
place the supplied terminal boots on wires and terminals as
directed by the installation instructions.
WARNING
To prevent serious injury or death from
electrical  re:
Never route electrical cables across sharp edges.
Never route electrical cables near parts that get
hot.
Never route electrical cables through or near
moving parts.
Avoid pinch and wear/abrasion points when
installing all electrical cables.
WARNING
Always insulate and protect all exposed wiring
and electrical terminals.
NOTICE
A fully charged battery and good connections are
essential to the proper operation of your winch. The minimum
requirement for a 12 volt DC battery is 650 Cold Cranking Amps.
Route battery connection cables in areas which
will not cause them to chafe or cut through the
insulation causing a potential short circuit.
The winch power wire must be routed to the
battery. A direct battery connection of the power
(red) and ground (black) cable is required. WARNING!
Do not connect ground to vehicle chassis.
Routing the battery cables may require removal
of vehicle facia or body parts.
Always route battery cables along a path that
allows the cables to be secured with zip ties.

WARNING
Loose or unsecured power cables can cause
serious injury or death.
Always protect power cables from sharp edges,
areas that get too hot to touch with your hand and
any moving parts.
1. Plan the routing path.
2. Loosely secure power cables along path.
3. Confirm power cables are protected from sharp
edges, heat and moving parts. Consider chassis
flex and vibration which might damage cable.
4. Carefully inspect electrical cable routing. Is
it neat and tidy? Zip tie and secure electrical
cables. Zip ties should be snug, but not cutting
into wire insulation. Use electrical tape, pieces
of rubber hose or electrical conduit to protect
electrical cables and wire harness where
needed to avoid electrical cable insulation wear
or abrasion.
5. Attach battery cables, red (positive) cable
FIRST, black (negative) second. Install boots
as appropriate to protect connections. Torque
battery terminal fasteners as directed by vehicle
service manual.
Upon completion of installation, check winch for
proper operation.
