5 Operating principles
To operate the winch you need an external hydraulic power unit. This HPU is connected at the winch
with four hydraulic hoses: pressure, return, drain and load sensing.
By moving the handle on the operational valve, the winch will go in lowering of hauling mode.
When operating the winch with the operating valve, the clutch has to be engaged, the band brake
has to be released and turn on when you stop operating the winch.
Free- fall
If you disengaged the clutch and a controlled released the band brake, than the anchor will fall in a
controlled free-fall.
