Winch (Unlock) - Press lockout switch (24) on the right console to the unlocked position. This switch activates the winch control lever.The electronic control provides variable speed control for the winch. Slight movement in the REEL IN position or slight movement in the REEL OUT position results in a winch drum speed that is slow and controlled. As the winch control lever is moved further from the center HOLD (neutral) position, the winch drum speed is increased proportionally. When the control is released from the REEL IN position or from the REEL OUT position, the control will return to the HOLD (neutral) position.
HOLD (Neutral) (1) - The wire rope should not move. Use this position when you tow the machine. Use this position when you are holding a load and when the winch is not active.

The winch freespool is not deactivated when the lever is released into the NEUTRAL position. The wire rope will unreel as the machine moves away from the load. Move the winch control lever out of NEUTRAL in either direction in order to cancel the winch freespool.Note: The winch freespool is used only to unwind the wire rope off the drum by hand. Use this function in order to hook up the cable to a load.
