Gearmatic 8A winch
Gearmatic 8A winch
Gentleman, just finished installing a Gearmatic 8A winch on my 1010c. It's been completely rebuilt and the controller. I mounted the controller lever facing the operator left side. It is my understanding that if you push the lever forward that is the free-spool position and it will stay there on its own. Pull it back past center and this will start spooling line in. Mine is doing the opposite or at least the spooling in part. If I push forward the winch spools in. I've checked the connections they match up. Would greatly appreciate your input.....
Re: Gearmatic 8A winch
Function depends on which way you have mounted the controller and/or run the lines. If the controller lever over centers and stays locked in one direction, that is for brake release, plumb your line accordingly.
