PAY OUT CABLE AND CONNECT TO EQUIPMENT

WARNING

Using remote-control unit and operating heavy-duty winch away from ve-

hicle will lessen the possibility of injury or death to personnel if winch cable

separates under tension.

CAUTION

•

Do not allow other vehicles to run over heavy-duty winch cable.

Heavy-duty winch cable may be damaged. Failure to comply may

result in damage to equipment.

•

Cable Hold Down control should never be engaged (pushed in) when

winch cable is being payed out under power. Failure to comply may

result in damage to equipment.

NOTE

•

The operator will be limited to slow speed only for heavy-duty winch

operations as high idle (which enables fast speed) is only available

via the remote-control unit or cabin high idle switch.

•

It is not advisable for the operator to use the cabin high idle switch

during heavy-duty winch operations, as it will decrease operator's

situational awareness by leaving the heavy-duty winch vehicle

mounted (manual) controls to turn high idle ON/OFF via the cabin

high idle switch.

1.

Disengage (pull out) Cable Hold Down control (1).
