3.2 Elektriske forbindelser
The winch operates on a 12V DC electrical system. Ensure your vehicle's battery and charging system are in good condition.
- Connect the thick red power cable from the winch motor to the positive (+) terminal of your vehicle's battery.
- Connect the thick black ground cable from the winch motor to a clean, unpainted metal part of the vehicle chassis or the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
- Connect the control box (solenoid) to the winch motor and battery according to the wiring diagram provided with your winch. Ensure all connections are tight and protected from moisture and corrosion.
- Test the winch briefly to ensure proper operation before full use.

- Til engagere sig the clutch (for winching), turn the clutch lever to the 'IN ENGAGE' position. This locks the drum to the motor.
- Til koble fra the clutch (for free-spooling cable), turn the clutch lever to the 'OUT DISENGAGED' position. This allows the cable to be pulled out manually.
4.2 Vinsjeprocedure
- Forbered køretøjet: Secure the vehicle with the parking brake and wheel chocks.
- Select anchor point: Choose a strong, stable anchor point (e.g., another vehicle, tree trunk with a tree saver strap, rock).
- Extend cable: Disengage the clutch and pull out enough cable to reach the anchor point. Always leave at least 5 wraps of cable on the drum.
- Attach hook: Securely attach the hook to the anchor point. Ensure the safety latch on the hook is closed.
- Engage clutch: Re-engage the clutch by turning the lever to the 'IN ENGAGE' position.
- Ryd området: Ensure all personnel are clear of the cable and winch.
- Begin winching: Use the wired or wireless remote control to slowly reel in the cable. Apply power smoothly.
- Overvåg drift: Watch the cable spooling onto the drum. If the cable begins to pile up on one side, stop winching and adjust the cable by hand (wearing gloves) to ensure even winding.
- Stop winching: Once the vehicle is recovered, stop the winch.
- Release tension: Carefully release tension on the cable before disconnecting the hook.
- Re-spool cable: Disconnect the hook, disengage the clutch, and re-spool the cable onto the drum under light tension. Ensure the cable is neatly wound.
