• The winch drum rotates counter-
clockwise when pulling in loads. If the
rope needs to be replaced make sure it is
started under the drum.
• Winding the rope over the top
(clockwise) could cause the rope to rub
on the encasement and wear the rope
causing fraying and breakage. Always
wind the rope under the winch drum.
• Read the winch instruction manual for
complete information.

• There is a second option for the winch
on the drum chipper. This winch has a

winch drum assembly.
