ASSEMBLY
Your CPE 3000 lb. (1361 kg) winch is designed with a
bolt pattern that is standard in this class of winch. Many
winch mounting kits are available that utilize this bolt
pattern for the most popular trucks and Sport Utility
Vehicles/UTV’s and ATV’s. If you cannot find a kit locally,
contact CPE and we will provide you with the name of a
dealer near you.
CAUTION
Mounting bolts must be SAE grade 5 or better and
torque to 34 ft. lb.
CAUTION
If utilizing a mounting plate, ensure that the three
major sections (motor, drum, and gear housing) are
properly aligned. Proper alignment of the winch will
allow for even distribution of the full rated load.
NOTICE
The type of vehicle to which the winch and mounting
plate will be applied, will dictate the type of mounting
kit that should be used (Speed Mount
TM
hitch adapter,
standard mounting plate, or specialty mounting kit).
Assembling the Winch
1. Insert M10x20 bolts through the mounting channel
holes and attach the roller fairlead to the mounting
channel with the M10 lock washers and M10 nuts
provided.
2. Turn the winch upside down. Place the mounting
channel on the winch, making sure the winch is
centered in the middle of it.
3. Thread the M8x25 bolts through the M8 flat and
lockers washers, and then thread through the
mounting channel. Tighten the bolts. DO NOT over
tighten.
4. Turn winch right side up. Disengage the clutch by
moving the Cam Ring to the “Out” position. Release
the wire rope and pull through the roller fairlead.
5. Attach the clevis hook to the cable, and then hand
strap to the clevis hook.
Contactor/solenoid Location
Find a location for the contactor/solenoid. It is
recommended that the contactor/solenoid be mounted
close to the battery in a clean, dry location. Make sure
the location chosen allows for sufficient clearance from
all metal components. Drill mounting holes if required.
Once a location is found, DO NOT install the unit until all
wiring is completed (see wiring section).
NOTICE
Terminals coming in contact with metal will cause a
direct short, possibly causing contactor/solenoid and/
or battery damage.
Installing the Rocker Switch
1. Decide which handlebar the rocker switch will be
mounted on. (The rocker switch is usually installed
on the left handlebar).
2. Use a piece of electrical tape (not provided) around
the handlebar to help prevent rotation of the mount.
3. Tighten the rocker switch in place. DO NOT over
tighten or tighten/clamp over any hoses or cables.
4. Once the rocker switch is mounted, the wires can
be routed back to where the contactor/solenoid is
located.
5. Make sure the handlebars have full range of motion
and then secure the rocker switch’s cable with the
supplied cable ties.

NOTICE
You may need to use a test light to locate a suitable
wire. The wire should only have power when the key is
in the ON position.
NOTICE
Depending on the location of the contactor/solenoid,
you may need to use the black and red cables in place
of the yellow and blue, and the yellow and blue in
place of the red and black. Just remember that this
also changes the diagram.
1. Connect the yellow and blue cables to the motor
terminals on the winch. (Yellow to the positive
(+) terminal of the motor. Blue to the negative (-)
terminal of the motor). Tighten the terminal nuts
on the motor. DO NOT over tighten. Route the other
ends to the contactor/solenoid location.
2. Connect the yellow and blue cables to the
contactor/solenoid (yellow to yellow and
blue to blue). DO NOT tighten nuts.
3. Connect the red and black cables to the contactor/
solenoid (red to red and black to black). DO NOT
tighten nuts. Route the other ends to the vehicle’s
battery.
4. Connect the red lead to the positive (+) terminal of
the vehicle’s 12 volt battery.
5. Connect the rocker switch to the contactor/solenoid
(black to black and green to green).
6. Splice the end of the red wire on the rocker switch,
to an ignition (keyed) controlled power source using
the supplied wire tap.
7. Once all wiring is connected to the contactor/
solenoid it can then be mounted using the supplied
M6 hardware.
8. Tighten the contactor/solenoid terminal nuts. DO
NOT over tighten.
9. Connect the black lead to the negative (–) terminal

Pull out some cable from the drum, and then turn
the clutch knob to the “IN” position to engage the
gears. Press the cable out button on the rocker
switch. If the drum is turning and releasing more
cable, then your connections are accurate. If the
drum is turning and collecting more cable then
reverse the leads on the motor. Repeat and check
rotation.
CAUTION
Battery cables should not be drawn taut. Leave some
slack for cable movement.
With some applications the motor leads may need to be
rotated to avoid interference with other components.
Leads default position Leads rotated 90º

OPERATION
General Tips for Safe Operation
Your winch is rated at a 3000 lb. (1361 kg) capacity in
first layer (max) when spooling the first rope layer on the
drum. Overloads can damage the winch, motor and/or
wire rope. For loads over 50% we recommend the use
of the pulley block/snatch block (included) to double the
wire rope line. This will aid in two ways:
– reduce the number or rope layers on the drum,
as well as,
– reduce the load on the wire rope by as much as
50%.
When doubling the line back to the vehicle, attach to the
tow hook, frame or other load bearing part. The vehicle
engine should be kept running during operation of the
winch to minimize battery drain and maximize power
and speed of the winch. If the winch is used for a
considerable time with the engine off the battery may be
drained and too weak to restart the engine.
Get to know your winch before you actually need to use
it. We recommend that you set up a few test runs to
familiarize yourself with rigging techniques, the sounds
your winch makes under various loads, the way the cable
spools on the drum, etc.
Inspect the wire rope and equipment before each use.
A frayed or damaged rope shall be replaced immediately.
Use only manufacturer’s identical replacement rope with
the exact specifications.
Inspect the winch installation and bolts to ensure that all
bolts are tight before each operation. Store the remote
control inside your vehicle in a place that it will not be
damaged.
Any winch that appears to be damaged in any way,
is found to be worn, or operates abnormally MUST
BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE UNTIL REPAIRED. It is
recommended that the necessary repairs be made by
a manufacturer’s authorized repair facility.
Pull only on areas of the vehicle as specified by the
vehicle manufacturer. Only attachments and/or adapters
supplied by the manufacturer are to be used.
Self Recovery
Locate a suitable anchor such as a strong tree trunk or
boulder. Always use a sling (not included) as an anchor
point.
A roller fairlead (included) will help guide the wire rope
and to reduce binding on short side pulls. Do not winch
from an acute angle as the wire rope will pile up on one
side of the drum causing damage to wire rope and the
winch.
Correct Incorrect
Short pulls from an angle can be used to straighten the
vehicle. Long pulls should be done with the wire rope at
a 90° angle to the winch/vehicle. When pulling a heavy
load, place a blanket or jacket over the wire rope 5-6 ft.
(1.5-1.8 m) from the hook.
13502 - 3,000 LB. ATV/UTV WINCH KIT
OPERATION
13
In the event of a broken cable it will dampen the snap
back. For additional protection open the hood of the
vehicle. For pulls over 50%, we recommend the use of
the snatch block/pulley block to double line the wire rope.
Single Line Double Line
This reduces the load on the winch and the strain on the
rope by approximately 50%.
Winching Techniques A-Z
A. Take time to assess your situation and plan your pull.
B. Put on gloves to protect your hands.
C. Disengage the clutch to allow free-spooling and also
save battery power.
D. Attach the hook strap to the clevis hook.
E. Pull out the wire rope to your desired anchor point
using the hook strap.
F. Secure the clevis hook to the anchor point: Sling,
chain or snatch block. Do not attach the hook back
onto the wire rope.
G. Engage the clutch.
H. Connect the remote control to the winch. If you are
going to control the winch from inside your vehicle
then pass the remote through an open window to
avoid the wires being pinched in the door.
I. Start your engine to ensure power is being
replenished to the battery.
J. Power in the wire rope guiding the wire under
tension to draw up the slack in the wire. Once the
wire is under tension, stand clear. Never step over
the wire rope.
K. Double check your anchors and make sure all
connections are secure.
L. Inspect the wire rope. Make sure there are at least 5
wraps of wire rope around the winch drum.
M. Drape a blanket or jacket over the wire rope
approximately 5-6 ft. (1.5-1.8 m) from the hook.
Open the hood for added protection.
N. Clear the area. Make sure all spectators stand clear
and that no one is directly in front or behind the
vehicle or anchor point.
O. Begin winching. Be sure that the wire rope is
winding evenly and tightly around the drum.
The vehicle that is being winched can be slowly
driven to add assistance to the winching process.
Avoid shock loads; keep the wire rope under tension.
P. The vehicle to be winched should be placed in
neutral and the emergency brake released. Only
release the brake pedal when under full tension.
Avoid shock loads to the winch. This can damage the
winch, rope and vehicle.
Q. The winch is meant for intermittent use. Under full
load with a single line rig do not power in for more
than a minute without letting the motor cool down
for a few minutes and then resume the winching
operation.
R. The winching operation is complete once the vehicle
is on stable ground and is able to drive under its own
power.
S. Secure the vehicle. Be sure to set the brakes and
place the vehicle in park.
T. Release the tension on the wire rope. The winch
is not meant to hold the vehicle for long periods of
time.
U. Disconnect the wire rope from the anchor.
V. Rewind the wire rope. Make sure that any wire
already on the drum has spooled tightly and neatly.
If not, draw out the wire and re-spool from the point
where the rope is tight.
W. Keep your hands clear of the winch drum and
fairlead as the wire rope is being drawn in.
X. Secure the hook and hook strap.
Y. Disconnect the remote control and store in a clean,
dry place.
Z. Clean and inspect connections and mounting
hardware for next winching operation.
