(1) Motor – 3 .6 HP 12V DC motor provides power
to the planetary gear mechanism .
(2) Winch Drum – The winch drum is the cylinder
on which the wire rope is stored . It can feed or
wind the rope depending on the remote winch
switch .
(3) Roller Fairlead – When using the winch at an
angle the roller fairlead acts to guide the wire
rope onto the drum and minimizes damage
to the wire rope from abrasion on the winch
mount or bumper .
(4) Wire Rope – 3/8” x 85’ galvanized aircraft
cable designed specifically for load capacity of
10,000 lbs .
(5) Braking System – Braking action is
automatically applied to the winch drum by
a separate mechanical brake when the winch
motor is stopped and there is a load on the
wire rope .
(6) Solenoid – Power from the vehicle battery
flows through the weather sealed solenoid
switch before being directed to the winch
motor .
(7) Free spooling Clutch – The clutch allows the
operator to manually disengage (“Out”) the
spooling drum from the gear train, free spool .
Engaging the clutch (“In”) locks the winch into
the gear system .
(8) Planetary Gear System – The reduction gears
convert the winch motor power into extreme
pulling forces . This system allows high torque
while maintaining compact size and light
weight .
(9) Remote Switch – Dual switches for powering
the rope in or out of your winch drum .
(10) Clevis Hook – Provides a means for
connecting the looped ends of cables to
an anchor .
