SAFETY RULES

ENGLISH 14051

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.

CAUTION

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

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.

14051 ENGLISH

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 30 cm (12 in.) 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

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

CAUTION

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

CAUTION

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

ENGLISH 14051

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) Motor - 1.6 HP/1.2 kW 12V DC motor

provides power to the planetary gear mechanism.

(2) 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.

(3) 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.

(4) 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.

(5) 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.

(6) Mounting Channel

4 5

(7) Rocker Switch - Rocker switch with

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

(8) Solenoid/Contactor - Power from the

vehicle battery ﬂows through the weather sealed contactor before being directed to the winch motor.

(9) Synthetic Rope - 15/64 in. x 38 ft.

Synthetic Rope designed speciﬁcally for load capacity of 4,500 lb. The synthetic rope feeds onto the drum in the “under wind” position through the Aluminum Hawse (10) and is looped at the end to accept the clevis hook pin.

(10) Aluminum Hawse - When using the winch

at an angle the hawse acts to guide the synthetic rope onto the drum and minimizes damage to the synthetic rope from abrasion on the winch mount or bump e r.

(11) Winch Connection Cables - Used to

connect the contactor to the winch motor.

(12) Clevis Hook – Provides a means for

connecting the looped ends of cables to an anchor.

(13) Strap – Used to assist cable feed.

14051 ENGLISH

ASSEMBLY

Mounting the Winch

This CPE 4,500 lb. 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

trucks, SUV’s and ATV’s. 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 M10x25 bolts through the mounting

channel holes and attach the aluminum

hawse to the mounting channel with the M10

lock nuts provided.

Mounting the Winch Cont’d.

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).

Solenoid/Contactor Location

Find a location for the solenoid/contactor. It is

recommended that the solenoid/contactor be

mounted close to the battery in a clean, dry

location. Make sure the location chosen allows for

sufﬁcient clearance from all metal components.

Drill mounting holes if required. Once a location

is found, DO NOT install the unit until all wiring

is completed (see wiring section).

NOTE

Terminals coming in contact with metal will cause a direct short, possibly causing solenoid/contactor and /or battery damage.

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 aluminum hawse.

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

hand strap to the clevis hook.

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.

Install the Rocker Switch

1. Decide which handlebar the rocker switch will

be mounted on. (The rocker switch is usually

installed on the left handlebar).

2. Use a piece of electrical tape (not provided)

around the handlebar to help prevent rotation

of the mount.

3. Tighten the rocker switch in place. DO NOT

overtighten or tighten/clamp over any hoses

or cables.

4. Once the rocker switch is mounted, the wires

can be routed back to where the solenoid/

contactor is located.

5. Make sure the handlebars have full range of

motion and then secure the rocker switch’s

cable with the supplied cable ties.

ASSEMBLY

ENGLISH 14051

Wiring the Winch

CAUTION

NEVER route electrical cables across any sharp edges, through and/or near moving parts, or near parts that may become hot.

CAUTION

Battery cables should NOT be drawn taut. Leave some slack for cable movement.

NOTE

You may need to use a test light to locate a suitable wire. The wire should only have power when the key is in the ON position.

NOTE

Depending on the location of the solenoid/ contactor, you may need to use the black and red cables in place of the yellow and blue, and the yellow and blue in place of the red and black. Just remember that this also changes the diagram.

Wiring the Winch Cont’d.

6. Splice the end of the red wire on the rocker switch, to an ignition (keyed) controlled power source using the supplied wire tap.

7. Once all wiring is connected to the solenoid/ contactor it can then be mounted using the supplied M6 hardware.

8. Tighten the solenoid/contactor terminal nuts. DO NOT over tighten.

9. Connect the black lead to the negative (-) terminal of the vehicle’s 12 volt battery.

10. Place all terminal boots over terminals and secure all cables with cable ties or electrical tape (not included).

11. Check for proper drum rotation. Pull and turn the clutch knob to the “Out” position (free spooling). Pull out some cable from the drum, and then turn the clutch knob to the “In” position to engage the gears. Press the cable out button on the rocker switch. If the drum is turning and releasing more cable, then your connections are accurate. If the drum is turning and collecting more cable then reverse the leads on the motor. Repeat and check rotation.

1. Connect the yellow and blue cables to the motor terminals on the winch. (Yellow to the positive (+) terminal of the motor. Blue to the negative (-) terminal of the motor). Tighten the terminal nuts on the motor. DO NOT over tighten. Route the other ends to the solenoid/ contactor location.

2. Connect the yellow and blue cables to the solenoid/contactor (yellow to yellow and blue to blue). DO NOT tighten nuts.

3. Connect the red and black cables to the solenoid/contactor (red to red and black to black). DO NOT tighten nuts. Route the other ends to the vehicle’s battery.

4. Connect the red lead to the positive (+) terminal of the vehicle’s 12 volt battery.

5. Connect the rocker switch to the solenoid/ contactor (black to black and green to green).

OPERATION

ENGLISH 14051

General Tips for Safe Operation

Your 14051 winch is rated at a 4,500 lb.

(2041 kg) capacity in ﬁrst layer (max) when

spooling the ﬁrst rope layer on the drum. Overloads

can damage the winch, motor and/or synthetic

rope. For loads over 2,250 lb. (1021 kg) we

recommend the use of the pulley block/snatch

block to double the synthetic 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 motor.

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 rope spools on the drum, etc.

Inspect the synthetic 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 facility.

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.

Your winch is equipped with a aluminum hawse to help guide the synthetic rope and to reduce binding on short side pulls. Do not winch from an acute angle as the synthetic rope will pile up on one side of the drum causing damage to synthetic 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 synthetic rope at a 90° angle to the winch/vehicle. When pulling a heavy load, place a blanket or jacket over the synthetic 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 2,250 lb. (1021 kg), we recommend the use of the snatch block/pulley block to double line the synthetic rope.

SINGLE LINE DOUBLE LINE

This reduces the load on the winch and the strain on the rope by approximately 50%.

14051 ENGLISH

OPERATION

Synthetic Rope Abrasion Sleeve

The winch should be set up to avoid any rough

surface from contacting the rope. If that is not

possible, the abrasion sleeve can be used to help

protect the rope. (A)

Winching Techniques A-Z

(a) Take time to assess your situation and plan

your pull. (b) Put on gloves to protect your hands. (c) Disengage the clutch to allow free-spooling

and also save battery power. (d) Attach the hook strap to the clevis hook. (e) Pull out the synthetic 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 synthetic 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) Drape a blanket or jacket over the synthetic

rope approximately 5 to 6 feet from the hook.

Open the hood for added protection. (k) Power in the synthetic rope guiding the rope

under tension to draw up the slack in the

rope. Once the rope is under tension, stand

clear. Never step over the synthetic rope. (l) Double check your anchors and make sure all

connections are secure. (m) Inspect the synthetic rope. Make sure there

are at least 5 wraps of synthetic rope around

the winch drum.

Winching Techniques A-Z Cont’d.

(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 synthetic

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 synthetic rope under tension.

(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 synthetic rope.

The winch is not meant to hold the vehicle for long periods of time.

(u) Disconnect the synthetic rope from the

anch o r.

(v) Rewind the synthetic rope. Make sure that

any rope already on the drum has spooled tightly and neatly. If not, draw out the rope and re-spool from the point where the rope is tight.

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

hawse as the synthetic 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.

MAINTENANCE

ENGLISH 14051

The owner/operator is responsible for all periodic

maintenance.

WARNING

Never operate a damaged or defective winch.

WARNING

Improper maintenance will void your warranty.

Complete all scheduled maintenance in a timely

manner. Correct any issue before operating the

winch.

NOTE

For service or parts assistance, contact our help line at 1-877-338-0999

Lubrication

All moving parts within the Electric Winch having

been Lubricated using high temperature lithium

grease at the factory. No internal lubrication is

required. Lubricate Cable Assembly periodically

using a light penetrating oil.

Synthetic Rope Replacement

It is recommended that any modiﬁcations be

performed by a manufacturer’s authorized repair

facility, and that only manufacturer-supplied parts

be used.

1. Move the clutch to the “Out” position.

2. Extend Synthetic Rope to its full length.

Note how the existing rope is connected to

the inside of the drum.

3. Remove old Synthetic Rope and attach new

one.

4. Retract Synthetic Rope onto drum being

careful not to allow kinking.

Synthetic Rope

Periodically rinse the synthetic rope with water

to remove any sand, dirt, mud, or debris that can

become embedded or build up in the rope during

use. This will help extend the life of the rope.

NOTE

Inspect rope before and after each use. If rope becomes frayed it must be replaced.
