Traceability

Load bearing parts are documented to provide traceability. The documentation includes chemical and physical properties of raw material, heat treating, hardening, tensile and charpy tests as required for the part.

Units with M1, M2 or M3 in the model code have traceable load bearing components.

M1–Material Traceability certificates according to EN 10204 (Ex DIN 50049) 2.2 on load bearing parts. Conformity documents affirm (by manufacturer) that parts are in compliance with requirements of order based on non-specific inspection and testing (i.e. results are typical material properties for these parts).

M2–Material Traceability certificates according to EN 10204 (Ex DIN 50049) 3.1b on load bearing parts. Conformity documents affirm (by a department independent of the manufacturing department) that the actual parts are in compliance with the requirements of the order based on specific inspection and testing (i.e. results are actual material properties for these parts).

M3–Material Traceability certificates according to EN 10204 (Ex DIN 50049) 3.1b on load bearing parts. Conformity documents affirm (by a department independent of the manufacturing department) that the actual parts used in the product are in compliance with the order based on specific inspection and testing (i.e. results are actual material properties for these parts in a finished, as delivered condition).

Components with part numbers ending in CH or CHA are charpy parts for use under extreme cold conditions. Traceability requirements must be stated when reordering these parts for continued certification.

INSTALLATION

Prior to installing winch, carefully inspect it for possible shipping damage.

Winches are supplied fully lubricated from the factory. Before operation check oil levels and adjust as necessary. Use the proper type of oil as recommended in “LUBRICATION” section.

CAUTION

Owners and users are advised to examine specific, local or other regulations, including American Society of Mechanical Engineers Standards and/or OSHA Regulations which may apply to a particular type of use of this product before installing or putting winch to use.

Mounting

Refer to Dwg. MHP0133 and Table 1 on page 8, and Table 2 on page 9.

Care must be taken when moving, positioning or mounting the winch. In most cases, lifting lugs have been provided to assist in handling the winch. If lug locations are improper for your specific installation, great care should be taken to ensure that winch, when lifted, will be properly balanced. Determine weight of your winch by referring to “SPECIFICATIONS” section. Lift winch 3 to 4 inches (75 to 100 mm) off ground.

Verify winch is balanced and secure before continuing lift. Mount winch so axis of drum is horizontal and that motor vent cap is not more than 15° off top vertical center. If winch is to be mounted in an inverted position, motor case must be rotated to position vent cap at top.

1.The winch mounting surface must be flat and of sufficient strength to handle rated load plus weight of winch and attached equipment. An inadequate foundation may cause distortion or twisting of winch uprights and side rails resulting in winch damage.

2.Make sure mounting surface is flat to within 0.005 inch (0.127 mm) per inch of drum length. Shim if necessary. Refer to Table 1.

3.Mounting bolts must be 3/4 inch (18 mm) Grade 8 or better. Use self-locking nuts or nuts with lockwashers.

4.Tighten 3/4 inch (18 mm) mounting bolts evenly and torque to 380 ft lbs (515 Nm) for dry thread fasteners. If fasteners are plated, lubricated or a thread locking compound is used, torque to 280 ft lbs (380 Nm).

5.Maintain a fleet angle between sheave and winch of no more than 1-1/2°. The lead sheave must be on a center line with drum and, for every inch (25 mm) of drum length, be at least 1.6 feet (0.5 metre) from the drum. Refer to Dwg. MHP2123 on page 9.

6.Do not weld any part of winch.
