INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your purchase of a high quality winch. We design and build winches to strict specifications and with proper use and maintenance they should bring you years of satisfying service. WARNING - Read, study and follow all instructions before operating this device. Failure to heed these instructions may result in personal injury and/or property damage.
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR WINCH Your winch is a powerful piece of machinery. It is important that you understand the basics of its operation and specifications so that when you need to use it, you can use it with confidence and safety. Below is a list of components for your winch and their use. You should practice using your winch before you are in a situation where you need to use it. 1. Your 4500 Ninja winch is part of our new product line which has been engineered with several patented technologies. 2.
11. Remote Switch: The Power switch leads have a dual switch for powering in or powering out your winch drum. The remote control allows you to stand clear of the wire rope when the winch is under load. 12. Universal Flat Bed Mounting Channel: Your winch could have been optionally supplied with a flat bed mounting channel that can be mounted to most flat surfaces such as trailers, step bumpers, truck beds, etc. The mounting channel also has holes to accept your roller fairlead. 13.
WARNING – The wire rope may break before the motor stalls. For heavy loads at or near rated capacity, use a pulley block/snatch block to reduce the load on the wire rope. WARNING – Never step over a cable, or go near a cable under load. WARNING – Don’t move the vehicle to pull a load (towing) on the winch cable. This could result in cable breakage. WARNING – Disconnect the remote control and battery leads when not in use.
CAUTION – If the motor stalls do not maintain power to the winch. Electric winches are designed and made for intermittent use and should not be used in constant duty applications. CAUTION – Never disengage the clutch when there is a load on the winch. CAUTION – Use the hand saver hook when handling the hook for spooling or un-spooling the wire rope. GENERAL TIPS FOR SAFE OPERATION The 4,500lbs and its all-derivative types are rated at 4,500lbs capacity when spooling the first rope layer on the drum.
Any winch that appears to be damaged in any way, is found to be worn, or operates abnormally shall be removed from service. Only pull on parts of the vehicle as are specified by the vehicle manufacturer. Only attachments and/or adapters supplied by the manufacturer shall be used. We recommend that you test your winch before use. Check that the winch will work in both directions and as an example of good practice remember to disengage the clutch when the winch is not under load.
p. The vehicle to be winched should be placed in neutral and the emergency brake released. Only release the brake pedal when under full tension. Avoid shock loads to the winch. This can damage the winch, rope and vehicle. q. The winch is meant for intermittent use. Under full load with a single line rig do not power in for more than a minute without letting the motor cool down for a few minutes and then resume the winching operation. r.
(motor, drum and gear housing) are properly aligned. Proper alignment of the winch will allow even distribution of the full rated load. 2. Start by connecting the roller fairlead (Part# X450800) to the mounting channel using 2 each of the cap screw M8 X 20 (Part# X450025), flat washer (Part# X450002), lock washer (Part# X450003) and securing with Nut M8 (Part# X450024). (Make sure the screw is placed through the mounting channel and roller fairlead from inside the channel.
C4500EWX Red Battery + Black Battery (5.9') Switch OUT IN WINCH ACCESSORIES YOU WILL NEED NOT INCLUDED WITH YOUR WINCH Gloves – For handling the wire rope and hook strap. Anchor Strap/Chain – Tree saver anchor straps are made of high quality nylon with high tensile strengths from 5,000lbs to 10,000lbs. Heavy Blanket – place on the cable to absorb energy should the wire rope break. RIGGING TECHNIQUES Self-Recovery Locate a suitable anchor such as a strong tree trunk or boulder.
CAUTION Do not winch from an acute angle as the wire rope will pile up on one side of the drum causing damage to wire rope and the winch. Fig 3.2 Fig 3.2 Short pulls from an angle can be used to straighten the vehicle. Long pulls should be done with the wire rope at a 90° angle to the winch/vehicle. When pulling a heavy load, place a blanket or jacket over the wire rope five or six feet from the hook. In the event of a broken cable it Fig 3.3 will dampen the snap back.
7. When the pulling is complete, remove the switch assembly (Part# X450700). From the female connector of the directional valve and replace the female connectors cover. REPLACING THE WIRE ROPE If the wire rope has become worn or is beginning to show signs of strands breaking, it must be replaced before being used again. 1. Turn clutch to the “CLUTCH OUT” position. 2. Pull out all the cable to its full length. Note how the existing cable is connected to the drum. 3.
TROUBLE SHOOTING SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE SUGGESTED ACTION -Switch Assembly not connected properly -Loose battery cable connections Motor does not -Defective switch turn on assembly -Defective motor -Water has entered motor -Insert switch assembly all the way into the connector. -Tighten nuts on all cable connections. -Replace switch assembly. -Check for voltage at armature port with Switch pressed. If voltage is present, replace motor. -Allow to drain and dry.
