much force.
2. Align the winch with the desired location and mark for drilling the locations of the 3 holes on the base
of the winch.

Using this powerful tool may create special hazards. Take
!
particular care to safeguard yourself and those around you.
Be sure the cable is in good condition and is attached properly. Do not use the winch if
the cable is frayed. Do not replace the cable with a cable of lesser strength.
Be sure the battery is in good condition. Avoid contact with battery acid or other con-
taminants. Always wear ANSI approved eye protection when working around a battery.
Have the engine running when using the winch to avoid running the battery down.
Stay out of the direct line that the cable is pulling. In case it slips or breaks, it will
"whiplash" along this line. Keep hands, clothing, hair and jewelry clear of the winch
while in use. Use a spotter to assist you in assuring that it is safe to operate the
winch. Make sure this person is out of the way of the vehicle and the cable before
activating the winch.
Do not attempt to exceed the pulling limits of this winch. Never use the hand crank to
"assist" the winch. This will damage the winch and may cause personal injury.
