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.

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

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.

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Read the vehicle Owner’s Manual carefully. Be
thoroughly familiar with the controls & proper
use of the attachment. Know how to stop the
attachment quickly.
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.

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION
Winch runs backwards or stays Winch wires reversed. Recheck wiring.
stuck in up position. Switch wires reversed. Recheck wiring.
Switch installed incorrectly. Check switch installation.
Battery wires reversed. Recheck wiring.
Winch cable is not winded up from
the bottom of spool.
Wind winch cable from the bottom
of the spool. (see assembly section
in subframe manual)
Winch will not operate or runs in one
direction only.
Vehicle’s ignition switch is at OFF
position.
Turn vehicle’s ignition switch at ON
position.
Broken wires or bad connection. Check for poor connections.
Control switch is inoperative. Replace control switch.
Relay or breaker is damaged. Replace the relay or breaker.
Limit switch is damaged or wires
disconnected from limit switch.
Replace limit switch or verify wire
connections on limit switch.
Winch is damaged. Replace or repair winch.
Winch runs but with insufficient power
or line speed.
Weak battery. Recharge or replace battery.
Check charging system
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.

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)
