FOREWORD
Read and understand this manual before operating or servicing your BRADEN winch. Retain this manual for future
reference.
The minimum service intervals specified are for the operating hours of the prime mover.
This manual contains installation, operation and preventive maintenance instructions for most current model BRADEN
Planetary Recovery winches. As there are many product variations, you must become familiar with your BRADEN winch
to fully benefit from the information contained within this publication.
Some illustrations in this manual may show details or attachments that may be different from your winch, and some
components may be removed for illustrative purposes.
Whenever a question arises regarding your BRADEN winch or this manual, please contact your nearest BRADEN dis-
tributor or the PACCAR Winch Division Product Support Department at:

TYPICAL HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS
NOTE: The hydraulic circuits shown below are representative of typical HP125B winches with single and two-speed
hydraulic motors and brake valves. Options and accessory equipment may result in changes to the circuits defined.
If there are any questions regarding the hydraulic circuit, refer to the information supplied by the original equipment
manufacturer, or contact the PACCAR Winch Division Product Support Department, as previously defined. (ALWAYS
have the winch model and serial number available when contacting PACCAR Winch Division.)

WIRE ROPE INSTALLATION
Winches are rated at bare drum line pull, meaning the maximum load capability will be reached on the first layer of wire
rope. As the cable drum fills, the line pull will decrease (loss of leverage) as the line speed increases (larger circum-
ference). Therefore, it is best to install the minimum length of wire rope possible for your application so the winch will
operate on the lowest layers, delivering the maximum load capability.
Use of larger diameter wire rope will not always increase strength as the larger wire rope may be more prone to bending
fatigue failure due to the drum diameter. Consult your wire rope supplier for their recommendations regarding the best
wire rope and rigging for your application.
Winch wire rope anchors or ferrules are NOT intended to hold rated loads. Winch loads applied directly to the cable
anchor may cause the wire rope to pull free and result in sudden loss of load control and cause property damage,
injury or death. A minimum of five (5) wraps of wire rope must be left on the drum barrel to achieve rated load.
INSTALLATION OF U-BOLT TYPE CLAMPS

Prepare the end of the wire rope as recommended by the wire rope manufacturer. Pass the wire rope through the U-bolt
until the end extends 1.5 – 2 wire rope diameters beyond the clamp. Evenly tighten the U-bolt nuts until the wire rope
deforms slightly under the U-bolt and the wire rope is securely held.
INSTALLATION OF SPIRAL FERRULES

Re-useable, field installed spiral ferrules are available from PACCAR Winch Division or your wire rope supplier. These
ferrules are for use with six (6) strand, IWRC (Independent Wire Rope Core) type wire rope. Refer to cable capacity
specifications on page 14.

PRE-DELIVERY CHECKLIST
Before releasing the winch to the end user, the following checklist should be reviewed and each item verified.
INSPECTION ✔
Check gear oil and refill as needed.
Lubricate all grease fittings.
Inspect winch mounting fasteners and torque
as required.
Check for loose or missing bolts, pins, keepers
and cotter pins. Replace as needed.
Check controls - adjustment and operation.
Verify winch operating pressure and flow.
Verify proper brake band operation.
Inspect for external oil leaks. Repair as needed.

RECOMMENDED PLANETARY GEAR OIL
Field experience, supported by engineering endurance tests, indicates the use of the proper gear oil and a program
of regular preventive maintenance will help provide extended gear train life and reliable winch brake performance. For
this reason, BRADEN has published the following specifications to assist in determining which lubricant is best suited
to your application.
Failure to use the proper type and viscosity of planetary gear oil may contribute to intermittent brake clutch slippage
which could result in property damage, severe personal injury or death. Some gear lubricants contain large amounts
of EP (extreme pressure) and anti-friction additives which may contribute to brake clutch slippage or damage to brake
friction discs or seals. Oil viscosity with regard to ambient temperature is also critical to reliable brake clutch opera-
tion. Our tests indicate that excessively heavy or thick gear oil may contribute to intermittent brake clutch slippage.
Make certain that the gear oil viscosity used in your winch is correct for your prevailing ambient temperature.
For simplicity, BRADEN has listed available products in each temperature range that have been tested and found to
meet our specifications. This is not to say that other lubricant brands would not perform equally as well.
If the following lubricant brands are not available in your area, make certain your lubricant vendor supplies you with oil
that is equivalent to those products listed below.

Unless otherwise specified, it is recommended that the gear oil be changed after the first one hundred (100) hours
or thirty (30) days of machine operation, then every one thousand (1,000) hours or twelve (12) months, whichever
occurs first. The gear oil should also be changed whenever the ambient temperature changes significantly and an oil
from a different temperature range would be more appropriate.
A warm-up procedure is recommended at each start-up and is essential at ambient temperatures below +40°F (4°C).
The prime mover should be run at its lowest recommended RPM with the hydraulic winch control valve in neutral al-
lowing sufficient time to warm up the system. The winch should then be operated at low speeds, forward and reverse,
several times to prime all lines with warm hydraulic oil and to circulate gear lubricant through the planetary gear sets.
Failure to properly warm up the winch, particularly under low ambient temperature conditions, may result in temporary
brake slippage due to high back pressures attempting to release the brake, which could result in property damage,
severe personal injury or death.
If you have any questions regarding this bulletin or your BRADEN planetary winch, please contact the BRADEN
Product Support Department at 1-918-251-8511, Monday through Friday from 08:00 to 16:30 hours CST, or by fax at

SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
Before any part is removed from the hoist or drive gearbox, all service instructions should be read and understood.
Work in a clean, dust free area as cleanliness is of utmost importance when servicing hydraulic equipment.
Inspect all replacements parts, prior to installation, to detect any damage which might have occurred in shipment.
Use only genuine BRADEN replacement parts for optimum results. Never re-use expendable parts such as o-rings and
oil seals.
Inspect all machined surfaces for excessive wear or damage before reassembly operations are begun.
Lubricate all o-rings and oil seals with gear oil prior to installation.
Lubricate all bearings with oil soluble grease prior to assembly.
Use a sealing compound on the outside surface of oil seals and a light coat of thread sealing compound on pipe threads.
Avoid getting sealing compound inside parts or passages which conduct oil.
Before starting disassembly of the winch, remove the wire rope, drain the oil and clean the outside surfaces to avoid
contaminating gears and bearings.
RECOMMENDED BOLT TORQUE

The general purpose torque shown in the chart applies to SAE Grade 5 & Grade 8 bolts, studs and standard steel full,
thick and high nuts.
Higher or lower torques for special applications will be specified such as the use of spanner nuts, nuts on shaft ends,
jam nuts and where distortion of parts or gaskets is critical.
Lubricated torque values based on use of SAE 30 engine oil applied to threads and face of bolt or nut.
