HOW THE PULLZALL WORKS
How the PullzAll Reacts to Load
The PullzAll is rated by pulling
capacity. The maximum pulling 
torque occurs when there is only 
one layer of wire rope on the drum. 
As the layers of wire rope on the 
drum increase, the pulling power 
decreases. This is the basics of 
mechanical advantage. 
Load Limiter
Exceeding the PullzAll capacity
will cause the load limiter to trip, 
which interrupts the power to the 
motor. This prevents overheating 
and potential motor damage. At 
90% of pulling capacity the overload 
indicator turns red. When 100% 
of pulling capacity is reached the 
load limiter will cause the overload 
indicator to fl ash red and the PullzAll 
motor to stop. When this occurs, 
release the load by spooling out. Do 
not attempt to apply the same load 
if the load limiter has tripped, as 
this can be harmful to the unit. If the 
load limiter fails to reset contact an 
authorized service center.
If the load limiter continues to
trip, perform the following actions:
1) Reduce the weight of the load.
2) Increase the distance of the 
anchor point.
3) Rig a double line pull.
For details: See “Rigging 
Techniques” section in this manual.
Before using your WARN
PullzAll to pull or lift a load it is 
important to understand how it 
works. The major advantage 
of the PullzAll is its handheld 
convenience for performing 
numerous recreational and work 
tasks. Thinking through how you 
intend to use your PullzAll now 
could save you a big headache 
later.
Control of Your PullzAll
The PullzAll tool has an On/
Off power switch and is controlled 
by a directional switch and a 
variable speed trigger control. 
The directional switch
provides control of the forward and 
reverse rotation of the spooling 
drum. Keep tension on the wire 
rope when winding in or out to 
prevent “bird nesting” that can bind 
and entangle the wire rope causing 
damage to it and the PullzAll. 
When you see the red paint on the 
wire rope, do not spool out any 
further. Doing so, can cause the 
wire rope to spool on the drum 
in the wrong direction. This can 
damage the wire rope and fairlead. 
The direction selection arrow 
should always match the direction 
of the wire rope when it is spooling 
in or out.
The variable speed trigger
switch has two general modes of 
operation: 
1) Variable speed mode for fi ne 
load positioning. 
2) Full speed mode for long 
distance. 
WARNING
Always keep 
PullzAll and 
pulling load in 
sight during 
pulling operation.
The PullzAll 
is controlled 
by the variale 
speed trgger 
and direction 
selection switch.
NOTICE
WARNING
Never spool out 
past the red paint 
on wire rope.

PullzAll Mechanics
It is important to understand that
the longer the pull, the more heat gets 
created within the motor. Spooling 
out the rope also generates heat. Let 
the motor cool between pulls because 
prolonged use without cooling the 
PullzAll will damage the motor. 
Run Time/Duty Cycle
The PullzAll is rated for
intermittent duty. It should not be 
operated for long periods with the 
motor at low RPMs. When the motor 
approaches stall speed a very rapid 
heat build up occurs which may 
cause motor damage. Follow the 
recommended run times and cooling 
times in the table shown. If the unit 
does not function after it is allowed to 
cool, call a Warn authorized service 
center.
