PCA-1263 - TREE/POLE MOUNT
Includes: 1 x Tree/pole mount, 1 x strap, 1 hex wrench, 1 carabiner
Using the tree/pole mount with anchor strap (REFER TO WINCH USER MANUAL FOR MORE INFO)
1) Place the tree/pole mount at the base of the tree or pole. Insert the strap’s hook into the anchor point on the left (figure 1, no 1); then feed the strap’s end
through the ratchet system (figure 1, no 2);
2) Slide the whole set-up upward to the desired height (figure 2);
3) Tighten the sling with the wrench supplied (figure 3) while making sure the rubber pads are properly positioned. The pads should offer maximum contact
surface with the tree or pole;
4) Install the receiver hitch (not included) without the square tubing and fasten it with the hitch pin and ‘’R’’ pin (figure 4);
5) Attach the winch anchor hooks to the eye bolts (figure 5);
6) Wrap the rope around the drum and start winching. The winch will align itself automatically with the load (figure 6).
IF YOU NEED TO PULL DOWNWARD, YOU WILL NEED TO INSTALL EITHER A PULLEY OR A ROLLER TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE WINCH SUPPORT PLATE.
AFTER PULLING FOR A FEW SECONDS WITH THE TREE/POLE MOUNT, RELEASE THE TENSION OFF THE PORTABLE CAPSTAN WINCH. CHECK THE SOLIDITY OF
THE INSTALLATION AND TIGHTEN THE SLING AGAIN.
NOTE: The hex wrench can be stored in the
opening on top of the tree mount (no. 1
above) and locked in position with the
provided carabiner (no. 2 above).
