SPECIFICATIONS

INSTALLATION

• Install the hand winch in a location where the load and the rope / strap can be observed during the operation, and inspection and maintenance can be conducted easily.
• Set the winch height to easy-work-height.
• Fix the winch to the installation base with bolts and nuts.

OPERATION

Let Rope / Strap Out:
Disengage the ratchet pawl (roll the ratchet handle down) and slowly pull out the rope/strap. If you must stop before the rope/strap reaches the desired location, be sure the ratchet pawl is engaged (the ratchet handle is rolled up) to hold the rope/strap there.
Take Load In:
Be sure the ratchet pawl is engaged. As you turn the handle, make sure the rope/strap is winding onto the drum properly. If you must stop before the load is fully in, be sure the ratchet pawl is engaged and gradually release the winch handle.
Shift:
Make sure that the ratchet pawl is properly engaged before attempting to change gears. Relocate the winch handle onto a different input shaft.

Gear Ratio: ① 1:1, ② 5:1, ③ 17:1

TROUBLESHOOTING

Excessive force needs to
be applied to the handle.| The load to be pulled is too heavy.| Set the load down carefully and check the real weight to be pulled. The load must not exceed the limit force of the winch.
Suddenly, the handle becomes heavy to rotate.| The load may be caught on something.| Stop the operation. Restart after removing obstacles.
The rope/strap is twisted or kinked.| Remove the twist or kink.
The winch vibrates or “whistles”.| The gears have lost their lubrication.| Lubricate the gears.
