WINCH FRAME MOUNTING
Use (8) 3/4" diameter grade 5 or better bolts to attach mounting frame to the wrecker.
CABLE INSTALLATION
1. Unwind cable by rolling it out along the ground to prevent kinking. Securely wrap end of wire rope,
opposite hook, with plastic or similar tape to prevent fraying.
2. Insert the end of cable, opposite hook end, into the hole in drum barrel. Secure cable to drum
barrel, using setscrew furnished with winch.
TIGHTEN SETSCREW SECURELY.
3. Carefully run the winch in the “reel-in” direction. Keeping tension on end of cable, spool all the
cable onto the cable drum, taking care to form neatly wrapped layers.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Refer to the performance charts to properly match your hydraulic system to RPH-45,000T winch performance.
The charts consist of:
(1) Line pull (lb.) first layer vs. working pressure (PSI) and (2) Line speed (FPM) first layer vs. flow (GPM).
Performance is based on a motor displacement of 9.6 cubic inches with 25 GPM maximum flow rate. See
page 14 for motor port size.
INSTALLER MUST DETERMINE TYPE OF
EMERGENCY STOP REQUIRED. A MANUAL
CONTROL VALVE ALSO SERVES AS AN
