Winch Maintenance
The worm drive winch on the boom elevator is a safe and
effective method to raise and lower the boom. The winch
has been fully lubricated at the factory; but, for continued
smooth performance and increased life, occasional
greasing of gears and reel shaft and an occasional drop
of oil on drive shaft bearings are recommended. The
winch finish can be protected and will provide longer ser-
vice if it is periodically washed with water and wiped with
light oil or wax.
Keep the winch in good working order. Damaged or se-
verely worn parts create unnecessary dangers and
could result in personal injury or damage to your sprayer.
Replace the winch when parts become severely worn.
Refer to Figure 21
The cable should be installed so that there is at least
three full turns of cable on the reel when the elevator is at
the lowest position.
