Installation
The TR5000 winch must be mounted on a level surface, with
the cable underwound as shown in the drawing below. Use
the dimensional drawing below to determine a mounting loca-
tion. Use (4) 3/8-16NC SAE Grade 5 or better bolts to mount
the mounting plate to the surface where the TR5000 will be
installed. Tighten these bolts to 23 ft-lbs (17 Nm) torque.
Connect the Red battery lead from the solenoid to the Positive
(+) terminal of a 12V battery or other 12V power source.
Connect the Black battery lead to the Negative (-) terminal.
The amp draw for the winch is shown in the table on the first
page. Make sure that the battery or power source is sufficient
to operate the winch.
Techniques of Operation
The best way to get acquainted with how your winch operates
is to make a few test runs before you actually need to use it.
Plan your test in advance. Remember you hear your winch as
well as see it operate. Get to recognize the sound of light
steady pull, a heavy pull, and sounds caused by load jerking
or shifting. Soon you will gain confidence in operating your
winch and its use will become second nature with you.
When pulling a heavy load, place a blanket, jacket or tarpaulin
over the cable five or six feet from the hook. It will slow the
snap back in the event of a broken cable.
