Mounting
The Model H6167 has holes in the base for mounting to most flat surfaces. The winch must be mounted for safe and effective operation. Be sure to check for wires before drilling into a trailer frame.
To mount the winch:
1.Place the winch in the desired position and mark the location of the mounting holes.
2.Remove the winch and drill 7⁄16" holes in the locations you marked in Step 1.
3.Use 3⁄8" diameter mounting hardware to secure the winch in place, as shown in Figure 2.

Winching Direction
The Model H6167 has a three position ratchet control lever that controls the ratchet action of the winch.
To change the winching direction:
1.Firmly grasp the winch handle to prevent sud- den movement.
2.Move the ratchet control lever to one of the three positions shown below (Figure 3).

Figure 3. Ratchet control lever.
Cable In: Pulls the cable in. If the winch handle is released, the load will remain supported.
Neutral: Allows the cable to freewheel. If the winch handle is released, the load WILL NOT remain supported.
Cable Out: Feeds the cable out. If the winch handle is released, the load WILL NOT remain supported.
If the ratchet control lever is placed in the "Neutral" or "Cable Out" position and the winch handle is released, the load will drop. If the handle must be released for any reason before the load is completely supported by other means, move the ratchet control lever to the "Cable In" position before releasing the lever. Failure to do so may result in seri- ous personal injury and property damage.
