RAMSEY WINCH MODEL HD-200 RAM-LOK ® PLEASE READ THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY. This manual contains useful ideas in obtaining the most efficient operation from your Ramsey Winch, and safety procedures one needs to know before operating a Ramsey Winch. WARRANTY INFORMATION Ramsey Winches are designed and built to exacting specifications. Great care and skill go into every winch we make. If the need should arise, warranty procedure is outlined on the back of your self-addressed postage paid warranty card.
TECHNIQUES OF OPERATION The best way to get acquainted with how your winch operates is to make test runs before you actually use it. Plan your test in advance. Remember, you hear your winch, as well as see it operate. Get to recognize the sounds of a light steady pull, a heavy pull, and sounds caused by load jerking or shifting. Gain confidence in operating your winch and its use will become second nature with you.
2. Check the action of the sliding clutch, making sure it is fully engaging and disengaging with the cable drum. Remove the plastic plug in top of the housing and observe if the clutch is fully engaging. If clutch is not fully engaging, inspect clutch shifter assembly parts, check for damage or excessive wear and replace as necessary. Observe the jaws on both the clutch and cable drum, checking for rounding of the driving faces. If rounding has occurred they should be replaced immediately. 3.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS Refer to performance charts, below, to properly match your hydraulic system to the HD-200 winch performance. The charts consist of: 1. Line pull (lbs.) first layer vs. working pressure (P.S.I.). STATIC (solid line) refers to hoisting a suspended load from rest; DYNAMIC (dashed line) refers to maintaining the motion of a moving load. 2. Line speed, first layer (F.P.M.) vs. gallons per minute (G.P.M.). Performance based on a motor displacement of 3.
