MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Rope should be replaced when:
• Rope bulk anywhere along the length is reduced
by 10% or more by abrasion.
• Two or more adjacent strands are cut.
• Flat areas or lumps are found that are not
eliminated by flexing rope.
• Excessive fused or melted fibers are found. Any
such areas will be stiff and the rope will have a
glazed appearance.
Maintenance:
• Replace rope every 12 months with WARN®
synthetic winch rope only.
• Inspect the rope before and after each
winching operation. Frayed or damaged rope
must be replaced immediately. See rope care
and storage.
• The rope must always spool onto the drum as
indicated by the drum rotation decal on the
winch.
Always take time to fully understand your
winch and the winching operation by reviewing
the Basic Guide to Winching Techniques included
with your winch.

Cleaning:
• Use low pressure water to clean synthetic rope.
Do not use any chemicals.
• Do not direct high pressure water (pressure
washers, car washes, etc.) directly between the
drum support and drum flange or clutch lever.
• Use low pressure water and a soapy rag or
sponge to clean the winch.
• Avoid using chemicals that may damage the
finish.
• Thoroughly clean salt residue from the winch as
soon as possible to minimize corrosion.
Rope Inspection:
WARNING Always inspect winch rope, hook, and slings
before operating winch. Frayed, kinked or damaged winch
rope must be replaced immediately. Damaged components
must be replaced before operation. Protect parts from
damage.
When rope is first used, the outer filaments
of the rope will quickly fuzz up. This is the
result of these filaments breaking and this
roughened surface will actually protect the fibers
underneath. The condition should stabilize, not
progress. If the surface roughness increases,
excessive abrasion is taking place and strength is
being lost.
Look closely at both the inner and outer
fibers. When either is worn the rope is obviously
weakened. Open the strands and look for
powdered fiber—this is a sign of internal wear.
Localized discolorations could potentially
represent chemical attack by anything from gear
oil to battery acid. When doubt exists, replace the
rope.
• Rope with original bulk.
• Rope displaying 25% strand volume
reduction from abrasion—rope
should be replaced.
• Rope strand showing full volume.
• Rope strand reduced by 25%
abrasion—rope should be replaced.
• Rope exhibits fi ber-set from
compression. A slight sheen is
visible. This is not a permanent
characteristic and can be eliminated
by fl exing the rope.
• Rope displays two adjacent cut
strands—rope should be replaced.
