The warnings and precautions discussed in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions and
situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution
are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.
T8#$,77,$"&8%L(*4,'$"&8#
1. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry,
as they can be caught in moving parts.
Non-skid footwear is recommended.
Wear restrictive hair covering to contain long hair.
2. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles and
heavy-duty leather work gloves during installation.
3. Before installation confirm that area is clear
of fuel lines, brake lines, electrical wires,
gas tanks or any other component which
could be damaged during drilling.
4. Mounting location and hardware
must support Winch and load.
5. Use supplied power cords and synthetic rope
listed in manual only. Do not use thinner/
longer cables or link multiple cables together.
6. Do not route electrical cables near sharp edges
or parts that will move or become hot.
7. Ventilate area well before and while working
on battery. Explosive invisible hydrogen gas
can accumulate and then explode when ignited
by a spark from the battery connection.
8. Only connect to a clean, corrosion free battery.
9. Do not lean over or come in contact with
battery while making connections.
10. Remove all metal jewelry before
working near battery.
11. Connect the red cable to the Disconnect Switch,
then connect the 12" 2AWG cable to the Disconnect
Switch and the positive battery terminal. Connect
the black cable to the negative battery terminal.
12. Insulate all exposed wiring and
terminals after installation.
13. Install Winch and Fairlead in underwind
orientation, so that the Synthetic Rope enters
and exits the Winch at the bottom of the drum.

1. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles and
heavy-duty leather work gloves during service.
2. Disconnect power to Winch and allow it
to cool completely before service.
3. Use supplied power cords, synthetic rope or
cables listed in manual only. Do not use thinner/
longer cables or link multiple cables together.
4. Have the Winch serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that
the safety of the Winch is maintained.
5. Maintain labels and nameplates on the Winch.
These carry important safety information.
If unreadable or missing, contact
Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement.

1. Make sure the Winch will fit the chosen mounting
area. If relocating the Control Box is necessary
or desired, perform the removal and installation
of cables to the Winch before mounting. Refer
to Relocating the Control Box on page 8.
2. The mounting plate must be rated to
at least the Winch’s capacity.
3. Align the Winch perpendicular to center line of
the vehicle at the desired location, and mark the
locations of the winch base holes. Compare the
dimensions of the marked holes to Figure A.
4. Before drilling, verify that the installation
surface has no hidden components or
structural pieces that will be damaged.
USE6-%%This Winch can generate extreme
forces. Select a location that can withstand the
rated capacity without damage or weakening.
Steel reinforcement plates may be needed or a
certified welder may need to weld on additional
bracing depending on the mounting location.
5. Drill holes appropriate for the hardware
at the marked locations.
U&$*- Depending on the vehicle application, it may
be beneficial to install the wiring before mounting
the Winch. Check all terminal access and plan
wiring routes before mounting the Winch.
6. Install the Winch using hardware specified
on the specification chart. Tighten fasteners
to the following torque values:
Winch mounting fasteners 30 –33 ft-lb
8.82 in. / 224 mm 7.2 in. / 183 mm7.2 in. / 183 mm

Only use a 12 V automotive (or equivalent) battery, in good condition.
1. Plan a route for the wiring from the point of the
vehicle where the Winch will be mounted, or
used, to the battery. This route must be secure,
out of the way of moving parts, road debris, or
any possibility of being damaged by operation or
maintenance of the vehicle. For example, you
may wish to route the wires under the vehicle,
attaching it to the frame using suitable fasteners.
HPKUTUXb%%ES%LK6!6UE%G6KTSWG%TUdWKR- Do
not attach the wires to the exhaust system, drive
shaft, emergency brake cable, fuel line, or any other
components which may create damage to the wiring
through heat or motion, or create a fire hazard.
2. If you drill through the bumper or any part
of the body to route the wires, be sure
to install a rubber grommet in the hole to
prevent fraying of the wires at that point.
3. Route the Cables from the Winch to the battery,
following the precautions discussed above.
Refer to Figure C.

to either terminal on the Disconnect Switch.
6. Attach the red Battery Cable from the Winch to
the remaining terminal on the Disconnect Switch.
7. Attach the black Ground Cable and the Small Black
Wire to the terminal at the rear of the Winch.
8. Attach the black Ground Cable from the Winch
directly to the negative terminal of the battery.
9. Lift the Socket Cover exposing the Remote Control
socket and Wireless Receiver Switch. Connect
the Remote Control Cable to the socket and the
Remote for wired remote control. For wireless
control do not use the Remote Control Cable and
turn on the Wireless Receiver Switch. Refer to
Remote Control Instructions on page 12.
10. Turn on the Disconnect Switch and operate the
remote controls briefly to test Winch function
and drum rotation direction. If operation is
reversed, the Battery Cables may be connected
backwards. Correct any such issue before use.
