should read this and other manuals related to the vehicle and accessory before operating. It is the owner's legal

obligation to instruct all operators in safe operation of the accessory.

GLOSSARY:

In this manual, right and left sides are determined by

In this manual, "accessories" means attachments

(snowblower, rotary broom, blade etc.) that you install

on the vehicle (lawn tractors, A.T.V. s etc).

TRAINING:

This symbol, "Safety Alert Symbol", is used

throughout this manual and on the

accessory’s safety labels to warn of the

possibility of serious injury. Please take

special care in reading and understanding

the safety precautions before operating the

vehicle and accessory.

1. Read this owner's manual carefully. Be thoroughly

familiar with the controls and proper use of the

vehicle and accessory. Know how to stop the unit

and disengage the controls quickly.

2. Never allow children to operate the vehicle nor the

accessory. Never allow adults to operate the vehicle

nor the accessory without proper instructions.

3. No one should operate the vehicle nor the

accessory while intoxicated or while taking

medication that impairs the senses or reactions.

4. Keep the area of operation clear of all people,

particularly small children and pets.

5. Never start or operate the accessories except from

the operator’s station on the power unit except if

this is impossible.

PREPARATION:

1. Thoroughly inspect the area where the accessory

is to be used and remove door mats, all foreign

objects and the like.

2. For motorized accessories, disengage all clutches

and shift into neutral before starting engine.

3. Do not operate the accessory without wearing

adequate winter outer garments. Avoid loose fitting

clothing that can get caught in moving parts. Wear

footwear that will improve footing on slippery

surfaces.

4. Handle fuel with care, it is highly flammable.

a) Use approved fuel container.

b) Never add fuel to a running engine or hot engine.

c) Fill fuel tank outdoors with extreme care. Never fill

fuel tank indoors.

d) Never fill containers inside a vehicle, or on a

truck or a trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always

place containers on the ground, away from your

vehicle, before filling.

e) When practical, remove gas-powered

equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it

on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel

such equipment on a trailer with a portable

container, rather than from a gasoline

dispenser nozzle.

f) Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the

fuel tank or container opening at all times, until

refueling is complete. Do not use a nozzle lock-

open device.

g) Replace fuel cap securely and wipe up spilled

fuel.

disconnect the wire from the spark plug(s) and keep

wire away to prevent accidental starting. Thoroughly

inspect the accessory for any damage and repair

damage before restarting and using the accessory.

4. If the unit should start to vibrate abnormally, stop the

engine (motor) and check immediately for the

cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

or remove it if preferred.

f) Reinstall mower if needed.

STORAGE

a) Clean and paint all parts from which paint has worn.

b) Apply oil at all pivot points.

c) Inspect and replace all defective parts before using

again.

WINCH CABLE MAINTENANCE

Lubricate the winch cable and the drum periodically

To reduce the risk of cable failure during the season,

we recommend changing the winch cable every year.

Install the new winch cable as shown parts

breakdown.

CONTROLS

IMPORTANT:

In order to avoid draining the battery of the

vehicle, always start the engine before using the

winch.

THE WINCH CONTROL SWITCH

Push up or down the winch control switch to lift or

lower the accessory to the ground.

There is a limit switch stopper that limits the lifting.

Always prestretch cable and respool under load

before installing the hook on the accessory. A tightly

wound cable reduces chances of binding, which can

cause damage to the cable.

To prolong the winch cable’s life, release the winch

control switch as soon as the accessory touches the

ground. This will keep the cable from tangling up,

causing premature wear of the cable.

Poor battery connection. Check battery terminals for

corrosion. Clean when required.

Winch is damaged. Replace or repair winch.

Winch cable breaking prematurely. Frequently stopping the winch when

accessory is going down.

Doing complete up and down cycles

and avoid stopping midway.

Cable tangling up. Release the control switch as soon

as the accessory touches the

ground.

Winch drum and cable wearing

prematurely.

Insufficient lubrication of winch drum

and cable.

Lubricate winch drum and cable

periodically with grease.

Winch does not hold the accessory in

up position.

Winch is damaged. Replace or repair winch.

* Please refer to parts breakdown section for parts identification.

HOW TO KNOW POINTS TO CHECK

Poor connections. Recheck wiring with the owner's manual

HI/LOW voltage tester does not work. Connect it on battery posts (+ and -) of a functional battery.

If there is no light, the tester is damaged.

The control switch inoperative. Test both connectors with HI/LOW voltage tester.

If light comes ON or the relay is clicking in both positions (UP &

DOWN), the control switch is operative.

Relay is damaged If there is voltage on battery wire posts 1 & 2 on the relay and no

voltage on posts 3 & 4 when control switch is activated and relay is

clicking in both directions, the relay is defective. (see relay assembly

section in owner’s manual for relay post identification). Check

connections with HI/LOW voltage tester.

Winch is damaged The ultimate test is to connect the winch directly to the battery and

reverse the wires to test both directions. If the winch doesn't work, it is

damaged.

The limit switch is damaged. When the limit switch is pushed or stuck inside, the winch can't raise

the accessory, only lower it. If not working properly replace it.

The breaker is damaged. Place clip of the HI / LOW voltage tester on negative (-) post of the

battery. Check the voltage with the tip of the tester on both terminals

of the breaker. If voltage only on 1 terminal replace the breaker.

(sometimes it could take a few minutes for the breaker to

automatically reset itself)
