5. Operating Instructions

Familiarize yourself with the controls and proper winching techniques before operation.

Engaging/Disengaging the Clutch:

To free-spool the rope, rotate the clutch handle to the "Free Spool" or "Disengage" position. To engage the clutch for winching, rotate the handle to the "Engage" position.

Using the Remote Control:

The winch can be operated using either the wired or wireless remote control.

• Wired Remote: Connect the wired remote to the control box. Use the "IN" button to reel in the rope and the "OUT" button to reel out the rope.
• Wireless Remote: Ensure the wireless receiver is connected and the remote control has working batteries. Use the "IN" and "OUT" buttons to control the winch. The wireless range is approximately 25 meters (82 feet).

The wireless remote control allows operation from a distance, enhancing safety and convenience.

Winching Procedure:

1. Ensure the vehicle is stable and secured.
2. Disengage the clutch and pull out enough rope to reach the anchor point.
3. Secure the hook to a suitable anchor point (e.g., tree saver strap around a tree, recovery point on another vehicle).
4. Engage the clutch.
5. Stand clear of the rope and winch. Use the remote control to slowly reel in the rope, ensuring the rope spools evenly on the drum.
6. Monitor the winching process closely. If the winch struggles or the motor overheats, stop operation and allow it to cool.
7. Once the recovery is complete, disengage the clutch, remove the hook from the anchor, and carefully rewind the rope onto the drum.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and reliable performance of your CXRCY Electric Winch.

• Cleanliness: Keep the winch clean and free of dirt, mud, and debris. Wipe down the exterior after each use.
