terminal of the vehicle’s 12 volt battery.

10. Place all terminal boots over terminals and

secure all cables with cable ties or electrical
tape (not included).

11. Check for proper drum rotation. Pull and turn

the clutch knob to the “OUT” position (free
spooling). Pull out some cable from the drum,
and then turn the clutch knob to the “IN”
position to engage the gears. Press the cable
out button on the rocker switch. If the drum
is turning and releasing more cable, then
your connections are accurate. If the drum
is turning and collecting more cable then
reverse the leads on the motor. Repeat and
check rotation.

Battery cables should NOT be drawn taut.

Leave some slack for cable movement.
