Using this CURT hand - crank winch is straightforward. First, find a suitable mounting spot on your trailer, thanks to the slotted screw holes on the base. Attach the winch securely. Then, connect the 15 - foot winch strap with the zinc - plated snap hook to your boat or the item you want to hoist. Grab the 6.5 - inch handle with the plastic grip and start cranking. The locking lever can be engaged for added safety when you've reached the desired position. When it comes to maintenance, regularly check the gears and the pinions for any signs of wear. Since it has a clear zinc finish, keep an eye out for any corrosion, especially if it's exposed to water often. If you notice any issues with the parts, refer to the one - year parts warranty. Also, avoid using this winch for vehicle towing as it's not designed for that purpose.
