SAFETY
WARNING! The warnings, cautions and instructions discussed in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that
‰
may occur. It must be understood that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be
applied by the operator.
1.1.
READ THE MANUAL
Before using the hand winch, read the manual carefully to understand its features, limitations, and safety instructions. Follow the
manufacturer's recommendations for installation, operation, and maintenance. Only use the winch for the task it is designed for.
1.2.
INSPECT THE WINCH
Inspect the winch before each use to ensure that it's in good condition. Check for any signs of damage, wear, or corrosion. Make sure
that all bolts, nuts, and screws are tightened properly. DO NOT use if damaged as this could lead to serious injury. Instead, contact an
authorised service agent.
1.3.
USE APPROPRIATE ACCESSORIES
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer. Don't modify or alter the winch or its accessories in any way. Fit only
appropriately rated cable, strap and hook suitable for the task for which the winch is to be used. DO NOT use any "cheater" pipe, lever,
or other device to lengthen the handle for additional leverage, as the pulley may fail causing damage and possible personal injury. If the
winch can not be operated by hand, it may be overloaded.
1.4.
USE PROPER LIFTING TECHNIQUE
Use proper lifting techniques to avoid injury. Keep your back straight and lift with your legs. Maintain correct balance and footing. Don't
twist your body while lifting. Keep your hands, body and clothing away from the winch components, cable and strap.
1.5.
USE PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as gloves and safety glasses when operating the winch. Remove ill fitting
clothing. Remove ties, watches, rings and other loose jewellery, and contain and/or tie back long hair.
1.6.
DO NOT EXCEED LOAD CAPACITY
This can cause damage to the winch or lead to accidents. Always check the load capacity before using the winch. Ensure you know
how much load you are winching. Never exceed the maximum pulling capacity. Take into account any angle of incline over which the load
must be pulled. Also account for winching loads from thick mud, or through snow or water. Chock the wheels of vehicles to be winched
then release any brakes and place gears in neutral, ensure the load is capable of free movement before winching. Take up the strain on
the cable or strap and remove the wheel chocks to move the load. DO NOT pull the cable or strap over or around a corner and DO NOT
take the hook around the load and hook back onto the cable.
1.7.
SECURE THE LOAD
Make sure that the load is properly secured before lifting, using appropriate rigging techniques such as slings or chains. NOTE: this
winch is intended for carefully pulling a load. DO NOT use it for lifting or slinging. For a heavy load place a blanket (or jacket) over
extended cable about 2 feet away from the hook in order to lessen the severity of a cable break. Apply even and steady pressure to the
handle when releasing the tension from the load. DO NOT operate the winch with less than five wraps of cable or strap on the drum. To
avoid sideways cable slip, the cable under load should only be wound on to the drum to such an extent that a minimum space of two times
the cable diameter remains on the drum flange.
1.8.
KEEP WORK AREA SAFE & CLEAR
Keep children and non-essential persons away from the work area. DO NOT operate the winch if you are tired or under the influence of
alcohol, drugs or intoxicating medication.
1.9.
AUTOMATIC MECHANICAL BRAKE REQUIREMENT
The minimum pulling load required for a proper braking function on the winch is 25kg. Without this minimum load, the braking function, will
not take place.
1.10.
ATTACHING THE WINCH
Most truck beds are not designed to support the pulling capacity of a winch. Choose an appropriately strong winching point, which we
recommend is reinforced with steel plates and appropriate securing bolts. The winch mounting point must be capable of withstanding 4 x
the maximum rated capacity of the winch.
