Caution:
The hydraulic system needs a relief valve to ensure the system safety. The absence
of such a valve could cause serious injury and damage the winch.
Winch battery cables should be placed so that there is a small amount of slack in the
cable.
If you are using a heat exchanger with your application to cool the hydraulic fluid you
should refer to the illustration about mounting.
You should check the hydraulic fluid level and replace any that may have seeped out.
The hydraulic system should be purged at this time. Listed below are the directions on
how to purge the hydraulic system.
1) Start the engine.
2) Power the winch to draw out about 5 feet of cable.
3) Shut down the engine.
4) Check the fluid level and fill as needed.
5) Repeat steps 1 through 4 as necessary.
6) Start the engine.
7) Move the cable into the desired position.
8) Turn the wheels on the vehicle from the right lock to the left lock positions five
times to help bleed the hydraulic system.
9) If the hand control unit is working backwards, simple exchange the brown and
the white wire connections within the valve.
