To Estimate Pulling Capacity:
1. The Winch has a pulling capacity of 3,000 pounds. Applying this measurement to
practical applications, you can use the Winch to move the following:
a. Move a load from a dead stop of up to 3,000 pounds on ground.
b. Move a waterborne marine craft of up to 8,500 pounds.
c. Maintain a movement of a wheeled vehicle of up to 9,500 pounds.
2. NOTE: The Winch’s pulling capacity is reduced as inclines increase. For ex-
ample, Rolling capacity is reduced from 9,500 pounds on flat ground to approxi-
mately 1,700 pounds on a 45 Degree incline. Refer to the Chart for estimated
pulling capacity (rolling weight) on various inclines. (See Figure F.)
To Use The Electrically Powered Winch:
1. Place the vehicle’s transmission in “Park.” Set the emergency brake, and block
the wheels from rolling, using suitable chocks (not included).
2. NOTE: You may wish to keep the vehicle’s engine running while using the Winch
to continually recharge the battery. However, use extreme caution when working
around a vehicle with its engine running.
