6-2 LUBRICATION
6-2. 1 The clutch is lubricated at the time of assembly and will normally require cleaning and lubrication every six
months by carefully following the disassembly/assembly procedure. If under adverse conditions, such as being
submerged, the clutch becomes stiff and will not spring freely into engagement, it will be necessary to clean and lubricate
the clutch parts at that time.
6-2. 2 Maintain correct oil level in the gear housing in order to dissipate heat. Too high or too low oil levels will result in
damage to the winch.
6-2. 3 Be sure to use S. A. E. 140 on the worm and gear set. The oil capacity of the winch is 3-3/4 pints. Fill oil to
level plug located on gear housing cover.
6-2. 4 Grease fittings on the winch should be lubricated occasionally with any heavy duty graphite-bearing grease.
