SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Warning! Observe safety precautions for personal safety and the safety of others. Improper
equipment operation may cause personal injury and equipment damage.
Read the following carefully before attempting to operate your winch and keep the instructions
for future reference.
1. Dress properly:
-Don’t wear loose clothing or jewelry. They can be caught in moving parts.
-Wear leather gloves when handling winch cable. Do not handle cable with bare hands as
broken wires can cause injuries.
-Non-skid footwear is recommended
2. Keep a safe distance:
-Ensure that all persons stand well clear of winch cable and load during winch operation, 1.5
times the cable length recommended. If a cable pulls loose or breaks under load, it can lash
back and cause serious personal injury or death.
-Don’t step over the cable.
-All visitors and onlookers should be kept away from the work area.
-Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
3. Don’t’ abuse the cord:
-Never carry your winch by the cord or yank it to disconnect it from the receptacle.
-Keep cord from heat, oil and sharp edges.
4. Don’t overwork the winch:
-If the motor becomes uncomfortably hot to touch, stop and let it cool for a few minutes.
-Don’t maintain power to the winch if the motor stalls.
-Don’t exceed maximum line pull ratings shown in tables. Shock loads must not exceed these
ratings.
5. Avoid unintentional starting:
-Winch clutch should be disengaged when not in use and fully engaged when in use.
6. Check damaged parts:
-Before using, you should check your winch carefully. Any part that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service centre.
7. Repair your winch:
-When repairing, use only identical replacement parts or it may cause considerable danger for
the user.
8. Re-spool the cable:
-Leather gloves must be worn while re-spooling. To re-spool correctly, it is necessary t keep a
slight load on the cable. Hold the cable with one hand and the remote control switch with the

other. Start as far back and in the centre as you can. Walk up keeping load on the cable as the
winch is powered in.
-Do not allow the cable to slop through your hand and do not approach the winch too closely.
-Turn off the winch and repeat the procedure until all the cable except 1m is in.
-Disconnect the remote control switch and finish spooling in cable by rotating the drum by hand
with clutch disengaged.
-On hidden winches, spool in cable under power but keep hands clear.
WINCH OPERATION WARNINGS
Read the following carefully before attempting to operate your winch and keep the instructions
for future reference. Smittybilt electric winches are intended for recreational self-recovery usage
only.
1. The uneven spooling of cable, while pulling a load, is not a problem, unless there is a
cable pile up on one end of the drum. If this happens reverse the winch to relieve the load
and move your anchor point further to the centre of the vehicle. After the job is done, you
can unspool and rewind for a neat lay of the cable.
2. Store the remote control switch inside your vehicle where it will not become damaged,
inspect it before you plug it in.
3. When ready to begin spooling in, plug in remote control switch with clutch disengaged, do
not engage clutch with motor running.
4. Never connect the hook back to the cable, this causes cable damage. Always use a sling
or chain of suitable strength.
5. Observe your winch while winching, if possible while standing at a safe distance. Stop the
winching process every meter or so to assure the cable is not pulling up in one corner.
Jamming the cable can break your winch.
6. Do not attach tow hook to winch mounting plate, they must be attached to vehicle frame.
7. The use of a snatch block will aid recovery operations by providing a doubling of the winch
capacity and a halving of the winching speed, and the means to maintain a direct line pull
to the centre of the rollers. When double loading during stationary winching, the winch
hook should be attached to the chassis of the vehicle.
8. Ensure rated “D” or bow shackles are used in conjunction with an approved tree trunk
protector to provide a safe anchor point.
9. When extending winch cable, ensure that at least five wraps of cable remain on drum at all
times. Failure to do this could result in the cable parting from the drum under load. Serious
personal injury or property damage may result.
10. All winches are provided with a red cable marking to identify that 5 cable wraps remain on
the winch drum when this mark appears at the rollers. No recovery should be attempted
beyond this marking.

11. Since the greatest pulling power is achieved on the innermost layer of your winch, it is
desirable to pull off as much line as you can for heavy pulls(you must leave at least 5
wraps minimum on the drum----red cable). If this is not practical use a snatch block and
double line arrangement.
12. Draping a heavy blanket or similar object over the extended winch cable is recommended
as it will dampen any back lash should a failure occur.
13. Neat, tight spooling avoids cable binding, which is caused when a load is applied and the
cable is pinched between the others. If this happens, alternatively power the winch in and
out. Do not attempt to work a bound cable under a load, free by hand.
14. Apply blocks to wheels when vehicles are on an incline.
15. Battery:
-Be sure that the battery is in good condition. Avoid contact with battery acid or other
contaminants.
-Always wear eye protection when working around a battery.
-Have the engine running when using the winch, to avoid flattening the battery.
16. Winch cable:
-Be sure that the cable is in good condition and is attached properly.
-Do not use the winch if cable is frayed.
-Do not move the vehicle to pull a load.
-Do not replace the cable with a cable of lesser strength.
-The life of the cable is directly related to the use and care it receives. Following its first and
subsequent uses, a cable must be wound on to the drum under a load of at least 500lbs (230kgs) or
the outer wraps will draw into the inner wraps and severely damage the cable during winching. The
first winch use should be a familiarization run while in a relaxed, non-recovery situation. Spool out
the cable until the red cable mark appears(about 5 wraps on the drum),then rewind the cable on the
drum under a load of 500lbs(230kgs) or more. This will slightly tension and stretch the new cable
and create a tight cable wrap around the drum. Failure to do so may result in cable damage and
reduced cable life.
-When the cable is replaced, be sure to apply loctite, or an equal compound, to the cable clamp
thread. Tighten the clamp screw properly but do not over tighten. The loctite will prevent loosening
of the screw in arduous conditions. Loctite 7471 primer and 222 threadlocker are recommended.
17. Do not attempt to exceed the pulling limits of this winch.
18. Do not drive your vehicle to assist the winch in any way. Vehicle movement in
combination with winch operation may overload the cable, the winch itself or cause damaging shock
loads. 19. Shock loads when winching are dangerous! A shock load occurs when an increase force
is suddenly applied to the cable. A vehicle rolling back on a slack cable may induce a damaging
shock load.

Mounting your winch
1. The winch is to be mounted into a suitable steel mounting frame using the 4 point
foot mounting system in either a horizontal or vertical plane.
It’s very important that the winch be mounted on a flat surface so that the three
sections (motor, cable drum and gear housing) are properly aligned.
--The fitment of winches and / or a frontal protection system may affect the triggering of
SRS air bags. Check that the mounting system has been tested and approved for
winch fitment in the airbag equipped vehicle.
2. Winch mounting frames and / or frontal protection systems are suggested to suit
most popular vehicles. Winch frames are packaged with detailed fitting instructions.
3. Should you wish to manufacture your own mounting plate the dimensions below will
assist. A steel mount plate 6mm thick is recommended. Fasteners should be steel high
tensile grade 5 or better. A poorly designed mount may void warranty.
4. The winch should be secured to the mounting with 3/8” UNC x 1-1/4” stainless steel
bolts and spring washers provided.
5. The roller fairlead is to be mounted so as to guide the rope onto the drum evenly.

Lubrication installation
All moving parts in the winch are permanently lubricated with high temperature lithium grease
at the time of assembly. Lubricate cable periodically using light penetrating oil. Inspect for broken
strands and replace if necessary. If the cable becomes worn or damaged it must be replaced.
Cable installation
Unwind the new cable by rolling it along the ground, to prevent kinking. Remove old cable and
observe the manner in which it is attached to the cable drum flange.
Electrical Connection (8000 ,10000,12000,)
For normal self-recovery work, your existing electrical system is adequate. A fully charged
battery and proper connections are essential. Run the vehicle engine during winching operations to
keep battery charged.

Winch Operation
The best way to get acquainted with how your winch operates is to make a few test runs
before you actually need to use it. Plan your test in advance. Remember you can hear your
winch as well as you can see it operate. Get to recognize the sound of a light steady pull, a
heavy pull, and sounds caused by load jerking or shifting. Soon you will gain confidence in
operating your winch and its use will become second nature to you.
Operating
1. Ensure the vehicle is secure by applying the parking brake or chocking the wheels.
2. Pull out the winch cable the desired length and connect to an anchor point.
The winch clutch allows rapid uncoiling of the cable for hooking onto the load or anchor
point. The shifter tab located on the gear housing of the winch operates the clutch as
follows:
a) To disengage the clutch, move the clutch shifter tab into the “OUT” position. Cable may
not be free spooled off the drum.
b) To engage the clutch, move the clutch shifter tab into the “IN” position. The winch is
now ready for pulling.
3. Recheck all cable rigging before proceeding.
4. Plug in the winch hand control. It is recommended that the winching operation takes place
from the driver’s position to ensure safe operation.
5. To commence winching operation, start vehicle engine, select neutral in transmission,
maintain engine speed at idle.
6. Operated the remote control switch to IN or OUT until the vehicle has been retrieved.
Regularly check the winch to ensure cable is winding onto the drum evenly.
MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCEMAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE
It is highly recommended that the winch be used regularly (once a month). Simply power
the cable out 15m, free spool 5m and then power back in. this will keep all components in
good working condition so that the winch can be relied on when needed. Contact your
authorized outlet for technical assistance and repairs.

1. Never winch with your vehicle in gear or in part, which would damage your vehicle’s
transmission.
2. Never wrap the cable around the object and hook onto the cable itself. This can cause
damage to the object being pulled, and kink or fray the cable
3. Keep hands, clothing, hair and jewellery clear of the drum area and cable when winching.
4. Never use the winch if the cable is frayed, kinked or damaged.
5. Never allow anyone to stand near the cable or in line with the cable behind the winch while
it is under power. If the cable should slip or brake, it can suddenly whip back towards the
winch, causing a hazard for anyone in the area. Always stand well to the side while winding

SMITTYBILT ADVANTAGE WARRANTY
LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY FOR MECHANICAL COMPONENTS
LIMITED ONE (1) YEAR WARRANTY FOR ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
Smittybilt Automotive Products, LLC (SAP) warrants to the original purchaser that (a) the mechanical components (e.g., gears,
clutch, spools, etc.) of any SAP winch will be free of defects in material and workmanship for the lifetime of the winch, and (b) the
electrical components (e.g., electric motor, wires, solenoid, etc.) will be free of defects in material and workmanship for a period of
one (1) year from the original date of purchase. This Warranty applies only to the original purchaser of the winch. To obtain any
warranty service, you must provide SAP with proof of purchase and date of purchase acceptable to SAP, such as a copy of your
purchase receipt.
This warranty does not cover the removal or reinstallation of the winch. SAP will, at its sole option, repair, replace or refund the
purchase price of a defective winch or component, provided you return the defective winch or component during the warranty
period, transportation charges prepaid, to SAP. Attach your name, address, telephone number, a brief description of the problem,
and a copy of your receipt and original bill of sale bearing the SAP serial number of the defective winch and date of purchase.
This warranty does not apply (i) to finish, paint or the wire rope; (ii) if the winch has been damaged by accident, abuse,
misuse, collision, overloading, modification, misapplication, improper installation, or improper service; or (iii) any normally
wearable part such as the break mechanism. This Warranty is void if any SAP serial number has been removed or defaced.
Commercial or industrial use or application, or any hoisting application
of the winch voids the Warranty. This Warranty is good only for winches bought, sold and used in the United States unless
otherwise specifically agreed in writing by SAP.
THE WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE IS THE ONLY WARRANTY. THERE ARE NO OTHER WARRANTIES,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY WHICH BY LAW MAY NOT BE EXCLUDED IS
LIMITED IN DURATION TO ONE (1) YEAR FROM THE DATE OF ORIGINAL RETAIL PURCHASE OF THE PRODUCT.
