Installation and Operating Instructions

Please read and save these instructions. Read carefully before attempting to assemble, install, operate or maintain this anchor
winch. Protect yourself and others by observing all safety information. Failure to comply with instructions could result in personal
injury and/or property damage! Retain instructions for future reference.

Unpacking - When unpacking, inspect carefully for any damage that may have occurred during transit. Make sure the winch is
correctly installed before putting unit into service.

SAFETY ISSUES

Read this user manual carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of the equipment. Only persons well
acquainted with these rules of safe operation should be allowed to use the winch.

Rope breakage.

1. Never allow anyone to be positioned between the anchor and the winch. If the rope breaks it could snap back with enough

force to cause injury.

2. Never substitute cable for rope. Cable is not an acceptable anchor line as it does not stretch and is easily frayed. If cable

breaks it can snap back with more force than a rope.

3. This product is intended to lift typical marine anchors. Do not attempt to lift or move people or other objects.

4. Inspect entire rope for weakness, wear or kinking (short tight twist or curl) before each use. Replace worn rope.

Electrical shock and fire hazards.

1. If possible, do not extend the battery wires, doing so can reduce winch performance. If you can shorten the wires, this will

improve performance slightly. If you must extend the wires, wire selection must be made based on AWG wire size selection
charts for 100 amp circuits.

2. Wire that is too small could result in overloading and a fire. Larger gauge wire will improve product life. Use 4 AWG 105c

wire up to 15 ft. (4.6m), 2 AWG 105c wire up to 25 ft. (7.6m). Splice the additional wires directly to the wires coming out of
the winch CU (Control Unit). DO NOT open the CU and try to replace the existing wires with heavier wire. Warranty will be
void and a satisfactory result will not be attained. Cut the existing battery wires about 12 inches (30cm) from the CU and
splice to extended wires with a sealed connection.

3. Opening the Control Unit will void the product warranty unless instructed by a TRAC Service Technician.

4. Use a 100-amp circuit breaker or fuse near the battery. This breaker protects the wire between winch and battery.

5. Make sure any crimped electrical connections do not pull apart easily.

6. Always disconnect the battery positive wire from the battery before attempting to install, relocate, or service the winch.

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION - Throughout this manual potential safety hazards will be noted with the following
terms. Please read and understand these terms before operating the product.

Danger means a hazard that WILL
cause death or serious injury if the
warning is ignored.

Warning means a hazard that COULD
cause death or serious injury if the
warning is ignored.

Caution means a hazard that MAY cause
minor or moderate injury if the warning
is ignored. It may also mean hazard that
will only cause damage to property.

Boat trailering hazards – As a precaution, when the boat is being trailered, the anchor must be secured

inside the boat or tow vehicle. If the anchor were to break free while trailering, it could cause serious damage and/or injury.

Anchoring hazards.

1. Damage to the winch WILL occur if operator drives boat while anchor is down. Dragging the anchor will damage the winch.

2. Do not exceed the capacity of the winch. If the circuit breaker halts operation of the winch during retrieval or deployment;

the winch may have been overloaded. The winch Control Unit, located on the winch motor, has an internal circuit breaker
to prevent damage from overload. If tripped, the circuit may be reset at the switch by pressing the RESET button. A second
circuit breaker (or fuse) is to be located at the battery for proper installation.

Entanglement hazards.

1. Never place any object or tool in the rope spool while retrieving or deploying the anchor. The tool or object could become

tangled in the rope resulting in serious injury and/or damage to the winch.

2. Do not wear loose fitting clothing, scarves, or neck ties during the operation of the winch. Loose clothing may become

caught in moving parts resulting in injury or death.

3. Do not operate the winch if any person is near the rope or rope spool.

4. Do not operate the winch under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol.

Storage and Maintenance – For storage, it is best to disconnect positive wire from battery.

WINCH DESCRIPTION

This drum winch retrieves and deploys anchors using rope and up to 20 feet of optional chain. This anchor winch features power-up,
power-down, Free Fall Down and ON/OFF operation. All operations are located on two control switches. One switch is located on
the Control Unit for easy operation at the winch itself. A second switch may be located at the helm, or anywhere the installer
chooses.
