SAFETY RULES

ENGLISH 40252

WARNING

Read this manual thoroughly before operating your winch. Failure to follow instructions could result in serious injury or death.

WARNING

Do not exceed the rated capacity.

DANGER

Do not use this winch for lifting or moving people or animals.

DANGER

Keep yourself and others a safe distance to the side of the cable when under tension.

DANGER

Never step over a cable or near a cable under load.

WARNING

Do not use the winch to secure or hold a vehicle for a long period of time. Do not use the winch to secure a vehicle for transport.

WARNING

Disconnect the remote control and battery leads when not in use.

WARNING

Avoid “shock loads” by using the control switch intermittently to take up the slack in the wire rope. “Shock loads” can far exceed the rate capacity for the wire rope and drum.

Do not accelerate your vehicle while winching. Loss of traction can cause a shock load on the cable.

WARNING

Batteries contain acid and produce explosive gases.

WARNING

The wire rope may break before the motor stalls. For heavy loads at or near rated capacity, use a pulley block/snatch block to reduce the load on the wire rope.

WARNING

Do not move the vehicle to pull a load (towing) on the winch cable. This could result in cable breakage.

WARNING

Pull only on areas of the vehicle as speciﬁed by the vehicle manufacturer.

3 REV 40252-20130726

Keep sparks, ﬂames and cigarettes away from batteries at all times. Wear safety glasses and protect the eyes at all times. Do not lean over the batteries during operation.

SAFETY RULES

WARNING

When re-spooling the cable, ensure that the cable spools in the under-wind position with the cable entering the drum from the bottom, not the top.

To re-spool correctly, and while wearing gloves, keep a slight load on the cable while pushing the remote button to draw in the cable. Walk toward the winch not allowing the cable to slide through your hands. Do not let your hands get within 12” of the winch while re-spooling. Turn off the winch and repeat the procedure until a few feet of cable are left. Disconnect the remote control and ﬁnish spooling by rotating the drum by hand with the clutch disengaged. Keep hands clear of the fairlead and drum while the winch is under power.

WARNING

Do not use as a hoist. Do not use for overhead lifting.

CAUTION

Use gloves to protect hands when handling the cable. Never let the cable slide through your hands.

CAUTION

Duration of winching pulls should be kept as short as possible.

If the motor becomes uncomfortably hot to the touch, stop winching immediately and let it cool down for a few minutes. Do not pull for more than one minute at or near the rated load.

CAUTION

If the motor stalls, do not maintain power to the winch.

Electric winches are designed and made for intermittent use and should not be used in constant duty applications.

CAUTION

Never release the free-spool clutch when there is a load on the winch.

CAUTION

Use hook strap when handling the hook for spooling or unspooling the wire rope.

CAUTION

Do not wrap the cable around any object and hook it back onto itself.

CAUTION

Apply blocks to the wheels of the vehicle when on an incline.

CONTROLS AND FEATURES

Read this owner’s manual before operating your winch. Familiarize yourself with the location and

function of the controls and features. Save this manual for future reference.

Winch

(1) Remote Control – Rocker switch with

handlebar mount for powering the rope in or out of your winch drum.

(2) Motor – 1.3 HP 12V DC motor provides

power to the planetary gear mechanism.

(3) Braking System – Braking action is

automatically applied to the winch drum

when the winch motor is stopped and

there is a load on the wire rope.

(4) 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.

(5) 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.

(6) 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.

(7) 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.

(8) Wire Rope – 1/4 in. x 52 ft. galvanized

aircraft cable designed speciﬁcally for load capacity of 4500 lb. (2041 kg).

(9) Clevis Hook – Provides a means for

connecting the looped ends of cables to an anchor.

(10) Strap – Used to assist cable feed.

(11) Mount Assembly – Flatbed mounting

channel.

(12) Hand Saver Bar – Used for guiding cable.

ASSEMBLY

Assembling the Winch

This CPE 4500 lb. (2041 kg) winch is designed

with a bolt pattern that is standard in this class

of winch. Many winch mounting kits are available

that utilize this bolt pattern for the most popular

UTVs and ATVs. If you cannot ﬁnd a kit locally,

contact CPE and we will provide you with the

name of a dealer.

CAUTION

Mounting bolts must be SAE grade 5 or better and torque to 34 ft. lbs.

1. Insert M10x20 bolts through the mounting

channel holes and attach the roller fairlead

to the mounting channel with the M10 lock

washers and M10 nuts provided.

2. Turn the winch upside down. Place the

mounting channel on the winch, making sure

the winch is centered in the middle of it.

3. Thread the M8x25 bolts through the M8 ﬂat

and lockers washers, and then thread through

the mounting channel. Tighten the bolts. DO

NOT over tighten.

4. Turn winch right side up. Disengage the

clutch by moving the Cam Ring to the “Out”

position. Release the wire rope and pull

through the roller fairlead.

5. Attach the clevis hook to the cable, and then

hand strap to the clevis hook.

Assembling the Winch Cont’d.

CAUTION

If utilizing a mounting plate, ensure that the three major sections (motor, drum and gear housing) are properly aligned. Proper alignment of the winch will allow for even distribution of the full rated load.

NOTE

The type of vehicle to which the winch and mounting channel will be applied, will dictate the type of mounting kit that should be used (Speed Mount™ Hitch Adapter, Standard Mounting Channel, or Specialty Mounting Kit).

Mounting the Remote control

1. The remote control is usually installed on the

left handlebar.

2. Use a piece of electrical tape around the

handlebar to help prevent rotation of the

mount on the handlebar. Do NOT tighten over

any hoses or cables.

3. Once the remote control is mounted you can

route the wires back to the battery and winch.

4. Make sure the handlebars have full range of

motion and then secure the remote control’s

cable.

OPERATION

ENGLISH 40252

General Tips for Safe Operation

Your 40252 winch is rated at a 4500 lb. capacity

in ﬁrst layer (max) when spooling the ﬁrst rope

layer on the drum. Overloads can damage the

winch, motor and/or wire rope. For loads over

2000 lbs. (907 kg.) we recommend the use of the

pulley block/snatch block to double the wire rope

line. This will aid in two ways:

(a) reduce the number or rope layers on the drum,

as well as,

(b) reduce the load on the wire rope by as much

as 50%.

When doubling the line back to the vehicle,

attach to the tow hook, frame or other load bearing

part. The vehicle engine should be kept running

during operation of the winch to minimize battery

drain and maximize power and speed of the winch.

If the winch is used for a considerable time with

the engine off the battery may be drained and too

weak to restart the engine.

Get to know your winch before you actually need to

use it. We recommend that you set up a few test

runs to familiarize yourself with rigging techniques,

the sounds your winch makes under various loads,

the way the cable spools on the drum, etc.

Inspect the wire rope and equipment before each

use. A frayed or damaged rope shall be replaced

immediately. Use only manufacturer’s identical

replacement rope with the exact speciﬁcations.

Inspect the winch installation and bolts to ensure

that all bolts are tight before each operation. Store

the remote control inside your vehicle in a place

that it will not be damaged.

Any winch that appears to be damaged in any way,

is found to be worn, or operates abnormally MUST

BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE UNTIL REPAIRED.

It is recommended that the necessar y repairs

be made by a manufacturer’s authorized repair

facilit y.

Pull only on areas of the vehicle as speciﬁed by

the vehicle manufacturer. Only attachments and/

or adapters supplied by the manufacturer are to

be used.

Self Recovery

Locate a suitable anchor such as a strong tree trunk or boulder. Always use a sling as an anchor point.

A roller fairlead (not included) will help guide the wire rope and to reduce binding on short side pulls. Do not winch from an acute angle as the wire rope will pile up on one side of the drum causing damage to wire rope and the winch.

RIGHT WRONG

Short pulls from an angle can be used to straighten the vehicle. Long pulls should be done with the wire rope at a 90° angle to the winch/vehicle. When pulling a heavy load, place a blanket or jacket over the wire rope ﬁve or six feet from the hook.

In the event of a broken cable it will dampen the snap back. For additional protection open the hood of the vehicle. For pulls over 2000 lbs. (907 kg.), we recommend the use of the snatch block/pulley block to double line the wire rope.

SINGLE LINE DOUBLE LINE

This reduces the load on the winch and the strain

on the rope by approximately 50%.

OPERATION

Winching Techniques A-Z

(a) Take time to assess your situation and plan

your pull.

(b) Put on gloves to protect your hands.

and also save battery power.

(d) Attach the hook strap to the clevis hook.

(e) Pull out the wire rope to your desired anchor

point using the hook strap.

(f) Secure the clevis hook to the anchor point:

Sling, chain or snatch block. Do not attach

the hook back onto the wire rope.

(g) Engage the clutch.

(h) Connect the remote control to the winch. If

you are going to control the winch from inside

your vehicle then pass the remote through an

open window to avoid the wires being pinched

in the door.

(i) Start your engine to ensure power is being

replenished to the battery.

(j) Power in the wire rope guiding the wire under

tension to draw up the slack in the wire. Once

the wire is under tension, stand clear. Never

step over the wire rope.

(k) Double check your anchors and make sure all

connections are secure.

(l) Inspect the wire rope. Make sure there are at

least 5 wraps of wire rope around the winch

drum.

(m) Drape a blanket or jacket over the wire rope

approximately 5 to 6 feet from the hook.

Open the hood for added protection.

(n) Clear the area. Make sure all spectators stand

clear and that no one is directly in front or

behind the vehicle or anchor point.

(o) Begin winching. Be sure that the wire rope

is winding evenly and tightly around the

drum. The vehicle that is being winched can

be slowly driven to add assistance to the

winching process. Avoid shock loads; keep

the wire rope under tension.

Winching Techniques A-Z Cont’d.

(p) The vehicle to be winched should be placed

in neutral and the emergency brake released.

Only release the brake pedal when under full

tension. Avoid shock loads to the winch. This

can damage the winch, rope and vehicle.

(q) The winch is meant for intermittent use.

Under full load with a single line rig do not

power in for more than a minute without

letting the motor cool down for a few minutes

and then resume the winching operation.

(r) The winching operation is complete once the

vehicle is on stable ground and is able to

drive under its own power.

(s) Secure the vehicle. Be sure to set the brakes

and place the vehicle in park.

(t) Release the tension on the wire rope. The

winch is not meant to hold the vehicle for

long periods of time.

(u) Disconnect the wire rope from the anchor.

(v) Rewind the wire rope. Make sure that any wire

already on the drum has spooled tightly and

neatly. If not, draw out the wire and re-spool

from the point where the rope is tight.

(w) Keep your hands clear of the winch drum and

fairlead as the wire rope is being drawn in.

(x) Secure the hook and hook strap.

(y) Disconnect the remote control and store in a

clean, dry place.

(z) Clean and inspect connections and mounting

hardware for next winching operation.
