Just wondering if anyone knows if running your reverser with a 3315 winch will hurt the winch? Because it would be changing the pto direction to?thanks jason

Hi,

In normal operation, the winch clutch is disengaged. So, the PTO rotation direction wouldn't matter.

I'd not try running the winch with the reverser in the reverse direction, though. Keep the reverser in forward when using the winch.

Later!
