01 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a heavy duty hydraulic winch from Superwinch. It has been designed and manufactured to
meet BS EN14492-1, Winch Standard, and provide years of trouble free operation.
Please read and understand this Owners Handbook before using your winch. Your winch is a very powerful machine. If
used unsafely or improperly, there is a possibility that property damage or personal injury can result. We have included
several unique features in the winch to minimise this possibility, however, your safety ultimately depends on your caution

to the winch installation section in this handbook.
Congratulations on your choice
These instructions are designed to assist skilled technicians in the efficient installation of a Superwinch, using the
appropriate trade tools. Superwinch reserves the right to alter model specifications without prior notice.
PLEASE RETAIN THIS HANDBOOK WITH THE WINCH
WARNINGS, CAUTION AND NOTES
These are given through these instructions in the following form:
WARNING: Procedures which must be followed precisely to avoid the possibility of personal injury
CAUTION: This calls attention to procedures which must be followed to avoid damage to components.
USAGE OF WINCH
This winch is designed for use in applications such as Pulling, Hauling, and other associated uses
IMPORTANT: Superwinch winches are not to be used to lift, support
or otherwise transport personnel. Any such use shall be considered
to invalidate the warranty And Superwinch shall not be responsible
for any claims arising from such use.
REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENTS
Before you contact Superwinch or you’re nearest Dealer, please have ready the following information: Kit No, Serial No
and Part No required.
POISONOUS SUBSTANCES
Many liquids and other substances used should under no circumstances be consumed, and should be kept away from
open wounds. These substances include (among others), hydraulic oil.
SYNTHETIC RUBBER
Many ‘O’ ring seals, flexible pipes and similar items, when subjected to fire or heat can become highly corrosive. Handle
with seamless gloves only. Should skin contact occur, remove contaminated clothing immediately and obtain medical
assistance without delay.
RECYCLING AND THE ENVIONMENT
It is illegal to dis pose of used oil in the ground, down sewers or drains or into waterways. Dispose of used oil through
authorised waste disposal contractors. If in doubt contact your local authority for advise on disposal facilities.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The winch is powered from a vehicle hydraulic system. See hydraulic requirements section. The drum can be
disengaged, to enable the rope to be pulled out easily and quickly. The winch is equipped with an adjustable freespooling
damper to help alleviate the possibility of wire rope over-run on the drum.
The automatic disc brake is housed at the hydraulic motor end. The brake will activate automatically to prevent the load
from causing the winch to ‘back-drive’. The brake itself is self adjusting for wear and is oil immersed for optimum heat
dissipation. The brake linings are of high performance non-asbestos material.
The winch is reversible with ‘power-in’ and ‘power-out’ via a directional control valve mounted on the vehicle or through a
handheld wander lead. The standard unit is supplied with clockwise drum rotation on ‘winch- in’ when viewed from the
gearbox end. The winch can be used in both ‘over-wound’ and ‘under-wound’ conditions, Superwinch recommends
‘under wound’ if possible.

MAINTENANCE AND USE
WIRE ROPE SPECIFICATION:
The rope must be of good quality, have a steel core and meet the specification detailed on the certificate of conformity.
Avoid pulling a load at more than 15 degrees angle in relation to the winch. This will reduce wear and tear on the winch
and the cable.
WIRE ROPE INSTALLATION:
1/
Unwind the cable by rolling it out along the ground with the tapered end nearest to the winch. NEVER wind the
cable straight onto the drum from a coil.
2/
Raise the cable tensioner, (if fitted), away from the rope drum and lock in position.
3/
Rotate the rope drum under power until the rope fixing holes run vertically at the front of the winch.
4/
Pass the rope end through the roller fairlead, under the drum and back over the top of the drum to pass through
the rope hole furthest away from the drum flange. Keep feeding the rope through to wrap around the drum FOUR TIMES
and into the rope fixing hole nearest the drum flange.
5/
Tighten the retaining screw ensuring that the rope end is flush with the exit hole and not protruding.
6/
Feed back any excess slack rope to tighten the four wraps neatly on the drum.
7/
Lower cable tensioner to allow the roller / skid plate to rest on the rope.
8/ Apply moderate tension to the rope. Take care to ensure the layers are neatly
wrapped, as this will minimise damage to the lower layers of rope when a load is applied
PULLING OUT THE ROPE, Using Freespool.
Dis-engage the freespool, with a pair of gloves on pull out the rope and secure to the anchor or load. Re-engage the
freespool.
FREESPOOL OPERATION, Manual.
When wire rope is removed from the drum, as in bringing the hook to the load, the freespool feature on the winch may be
used.
To Engage: Turn the freespool handle to the ‘engage’ position.
To Disengage: Pull and Turn the freespool handle to the ‘disengage’ position.
REMOTE FREESPOOL OPERATION, Pneumatic.
Move the pneumatic freespool control lever to the free position.
Pull out the wire cable but leave at least 5 wraps on the rope drum.
Attach to the load.
Engage the rope drum by moving the freespool control lever to the fixed / locked position. The freespool will spring return
but the rope drum may have to be rotated a little gently under power.
DO NOT ATTEMPT to pull a load until the drum is fully engaged.
Operate the winch.

MAINTENANCE AND USE
RUNNING–IN
Ensure your winch has been filled with the correct oil before proceeding.
For optimum performance and life, all hydraulic motors should be run-in. Run motor for approximately 1 hour at 30% of
maximum oil pressure, (this is the advice of most hydraulic motor manufacturers).
MAINTENANCE
Manual Freespool Handle: Lubricate regularly with light oil.
After the first hour of operation:
Change the gearbox oil. Check tightness of mounting bolts and hydraulic connections.
Monthly:
Check the oil level, located on the gearbox end of the winch.
After 10 hours of operation or annually:
Change the gearbox oil, (approximately ¾ litre). Check tightness of mounting bolts and hydraulic connections.
The winch is delivered from the factory filled with the correct type and quantity of oil. The oil specification recommended
is: BP ENERGOL GR-XP150 or equivalent, using approximately ¾ litre.
SERVICING
Before you contact Superwinch or your nearest dealer for parts etc, please have ready the following information:
* Kit No
* Serial No of Winch
* Part No required, (if known)
When ordering spare parts from the parts list always quote the winch serial No and part No (not item No)
TIPS FOR EXTENDING THE LIFE OF YOUR WINCH
1/
Note: Installing the wire rope is not included in the running-in period. Check tightness of all mounting bolts after
running-in period.
2/
Keep a tightly wound wire rope. Do not allow the windings on the drum to become loosely wound. A loosely
wound spool allows a rope under load to work its way down into the layers of the wire rope on the drum. When this
happens, the lower layers become damaged and the rope may become wedged within the body of the windings. To
prevent this problem, keep tension on the rope at all times. A good practice is to rewind the rope under tension after each
use.
3/
Prevent kinks before they occur.
(a)
This is the start of a kink. At this time the rope should be straightened
(b)
The rope was pulled and the loop has tightened to a kink, the rope is now
permanently damaged
Page 7 of 7
(c)
The result of kinking is that each strand pulls a different amount causing the
strands under greatest tension to break and reduce load capacity of the wire
rope.
4/
Use a snatch block for heavy loads. To keep wear to a minimum, use a
snatch block to double line heavy loads. Double lining reduces the work
required of the winch by one half, which in turn reduces wear.
5/
The pull required to start a load moving is often much greater than the load
to keep it moving, try to avoid stopping and starting during a pull.

Switching Mount Angles from front to back:
The H45 hydraulic planetary drive winch is supplied with two heavy duty mounting angles, one with deep cut-out and one
with shallow cut-out, It is important that the mounting angle with shallow cut-out is mounted at the rear
of the winch, (it will depend on how the winch is mounted which side is the rear), it is permissible to
switch these mounting angles if necessary, to suit your application. The following notes will help:
If removing the Mounting Angles to switch from front to back, the winch will consist of three separate parts, the gearbox,
the motor assembly and the rope drum, these three parts must not be separated.
Place the winch on a flat surface, (bench etc), firstly, remove the four countersunk M16 screws from the underside of the
mounting angles, it will be necessary to tilt the winch backwards to access the front screws and forwards to gain access
to the rear screws, (do not lift the winch). Place winch flat on bench etc, loosen all the remaining M16 hexagon bolts
before removing them, without separating the winch, pull mounting angles away from the centreline of the winch, (do not
slide winch off the mounting angles lengthwise). Tilt winch from side to side to position the mounting angles, fit all M16
hexagon bolts, tilt winch and fit four countersunk screws and tighten, (220 Nm), lay winch flat on bench and tighten all
M16 hexagon bolts, 220 Nm to 240 Nm.
Note: Tilting the winch backwards and forwards will allow one side of the winch to always be in contact with the bench,
this will lessen the chance of the three parts of the winch separating.
All nuts and bolts holding the winch parts together are 8.8 tensile grade or higher.
