Winch inspection and maintenance

Carry out the following checks and maintenance at least annually.

1. WARNING! Do not lubricate friction (braking)

discs. This can cause slipping or failure.

2. Apply a drop or two of #30 weight engine oil

to each bushing I.D. and to the ratchet pawl

pivot points. Maintain a thin layer of chassis

grease on the gear teeth.

3. Check for wear on the gear teeth on the winch drum or gear on the primary shaft. If excessive

replace winch. Check load being applied to winch as overloading will cause excessive wear.

4. Clean debris off winch and ensure grit and debris is cleared from gears

5. Check for any damage that has taken place i.e. denting or distortion on the winch drum or winch

casing – if present then replace winch.

6. Inspect the winch cable for fraying, kinks or flattening along its full length. If the winch cable is

frayed, flattened or kinked; replace. Investigate why fraying or flattening has occurred.

7. Check the friction (braking) discs for wear. If less than 1.5 mm thick, cracked or broken, replace

immediately.

8. During winch use, check for proper ratchet pawl operation as follows. When cranking cable in, a

ratchet clicking sound should be heard. When cranking cable out, there is no clicking and the

ratchet pawl must be fully engaged into the gear teeth. If this does not take place, then stop using

the winch and contact Altron.
