All:
Just read the manual for the K1550 winch and
noticed an important note that some of us might
not be aware of:
"DO NOT REMOVE OR ADJUST THE DOUBLE LOCKNUTS ON
THE LONG END OF THE INPUT SHAFT. THEY ARE AN
IMPORTANT PART OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND MUST BE
INTACT "
The double locknuts are on the handle side of the
input shaft. I suspect that the brake pads would
slip somewhat if the locknuts were out of
adjustment due to the pads wear over time. This
could be the cause of the free wheeling some
mentioned.
