User's Responsibility for CE Compliance

1. Mount winch per Winch Installation Instructions.
2. Install the emergency stop switch per Installation
Instructions included with the Emergency Stop Switch Kit.
3. Install 5 mm (.196 inch) grade 1960 wire rope. Maximum
rope length of 10,6 M (37 ft) for four layers maximum.
4. Attach rope to the drum per Rope Installation Instructions.
5. Use a hook which includes a safety latch and has a
minimum breaking strength of 20 kN.

Safety Precautions

A. Keep yourself and others a safe distance to the side of
the rope when pulling under load.
B. Do not step over a rope, or near a rope under load.
C. Use a heavy rag or gloves to protect hands from burrs
when handling winch rope.
D. Modification, alteration, or deviation to the winch
should only be made by Ramsey Winch Company.
E. Keep the duration of your pulls as short as possible.
If the motor becomes uncomfortably hot to the touch,
stop and let it cool for a few minutes. Do not pull
more than one minute at or near the rated load. Do
not maintain power to the winch if the motor stalls.
Electric winches are for intermittent usage and should
not be used in constant duty applications.
F. Disconnect the remote control switch from the winch
when not in use.
G. Do not use winch in hoisting applications due to
required hoist safety factors and features.
H. To respool correctly, it is necessary to keep a slight
load on the rope. Do not allow the rope to slip
through your hand and do not approach the winch too
closely.
I. Observe spooling of rope onto drum. Side pulls can
cause rope to pileup at one end of the drum. To
correct uneven stacking, spool out that section of the
rope and move it to the other end of the drum and
continue winching. Uneven spooling which causes
rope pileup can interfere with the winch tie rods
causing damage to the winch.
J. Neat, tight spooling avoids rope binding which is
caused when a load is applied and the rope is pinched
between two other wraps of rope. If this happens,
alternately power the winch in and out a few inches.
Do not attempt to work a bound rope under load, free
by hand.

Winch Installation

1. Tighten mounting bolts to 21,6 Nm (16 ft lb) torque.
2. Do not attach motor and battery leads until instructed
to do so.
3. It is very important that the winch be mounted on
a flat surface, with the rope underwound as
shown in the dimensional drawing on page 6.
CAUTION: Supplied 22,6 mm (.88 in) long
mounting bolts with lockwashers are for a
recommended winch mounting plate ness of
4,7 mm (.18 in). If a different mounting plate
thickness is used, the bolt length must be
adjusted accordingly or damage to winch
may occur. Replacement bolts must be SAE
Grade 5 or equivalent.
