Thank you for purcha sin g a Superwinch Pro. It has
been designed and manufactured to meet BS EN 14492-1,
Power Driven Winches Standard, and provide years of
trouble-free operation.

Please read and understand this Owner’s handbook before
using your winch. Your winch is a very powerful machine. If
used unsafely or improperly, there is a possibility that property
damage or personal injury can result. We have included
several unique features in the winch to minimize this
possibility, however, your safety ultimately depends on your
caution when using the product. Correct installation of your
winch is a requirement for correct operation. Pay particular
attention to the winch installation section in this handbook.

Congratulations on your choice.

These instructions are designed to assist skilled technicians in
the efficient installation of a Superwinch, using the
appropriate trade tools. Superwinch reserve the right to alter
model specification without prior notice.

PLEASE RETAIN THIS HANDBOOK WITH THE WINCH

WARNINGS, CAUTION AND NOTES

form :

WARNING : Procedures which must be followed

personal injury.

CAUTION : This calls attention to procedures
which must be followed to avoid damage to
components.

NOTE : This calls attention to methods which make
a job easier or gives helpful information.

USAGE OF WINCH

Hauling, and other associated uses.

REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENTS

Before you contact Superwinch or your nearest Dealer please
have ready the following information: Kit No, Serial No, and
Part No. required

POISONOUS SUBSTANCES

Many liquids and other substances used should under no
circumstances be consumed, and should be kept away from
open wounds. These substances include (amoung others)
hydraulic oil.

SYNTHETIC RUBBER

Many ‘O’ ring seals, flexible pipes and similar items, when
subjected to fire or heat can become highly corrosive. Handle
with seamless gloves only. Should skin contact occur, remove
contaminated clothing immediately and obtain medical
assistance without delay. Meanwhile, wash the affected area
with copious amounts of cold water or limewater for 15 to 60
minutes.

RECYCLING AND THE ENVIRONMENT

It is illegal to dispose of used oil in the ground, down sewers
or drains or into waterways. Dispose of used oil through
authorised waste disposal contractors. If in doubt contact your
local Authority for advice on disposal facilities.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The winch is hydraulically driven from a hydraulic system.
See Hydraulic Installation section. The drum can be
disengaged, to enable the rope to be pulled out easily and
quickly. The winch is equipped with an adjustable free­spooling damper to help alleviate the possibility of wire rope
over-run on the drum.

The automatic disc brake is housed in the planetary gearbox.
The brake will activate automatically to prevent the load from
causing the winch to ‘back-drive’. The brake itself is self
adjusting for wear and is oil immersed for optimum heat
dissipation. The brake lining are of high performance non­asbestos material.

The winch is reversible with ‘power-in’ and ‘power-out’ via a
directional control valve mounted on the vehicle. The standard
unit is supplied with, counter-clockwise drum rotation on
‘winch-in’ when viewed from the gearbox end. The winch can
be used in both ‘over-wound’ and ‘under-wound’ conditions.
