I notice it says all attachments and devices fitted to the winch rope to be removed before going on public roads in the EU regions which may be of interest to some who are contemplating fixing permanent winch rope thimbles/eyes and to all ways use the winch rope together with the red winch compatible snatch ring S50. Surely if you have to use the the winch rope loop fitted with the S -ring 50 then it should be supplied with the winch and not having to buy that as an extra accessory. Maybe I’m over thinking this
Yes how do you stop the hook rattling around if you put the rope on a recovery point you cant get the winch cover on unless you cut a hole in it.I notice it says all attachments and devices fitted to the winch rope to be removed before going on public roads in the EU regions which may be of internet to some who are contemplating fixing permanent winch rope thimbles/eyes and to all ways use the winch rope together with the red winch compatible snatch ring S50.

. I wouldn’t want to put a hook on with that loop knot. That’s a very sharp radius bend and would weaken the rope. Use the S- ring 50 then attach to whatever using a soft shackle is the safest methodWas a spare hook off a Huskey seemed to work pretty well for that could use a shackle iwh it have plenty . Why they didn't just stick a hook on it I don't know. Still can't get it to winch but did get power to the NATO will have to wait for software update I guess so far its' a 3.5k lump of metal.
You mean you can’t get the front winch to work ? You shouldn’t need a software update for that. I thought the software update was just for people with high load wiring but no winch specified.
is there a german version available ?
Im sorry could only find this one
I note that there does not seem to be any instruction not to wind the rope all the way in as we had previously heard, so that would work hopefully
Other companies have different winch bumpers for the Grenadier so isn't this nonsense?I notice it says all attachments and devices fitted to the winch rope to be removed before going on public roads in the EU regions which may be of interest to some who are contemplating fixing permanent winch rope thimbles/eyes and to all ways use the winch rope together with the red winch compatible snatch ring S50.

Sorry have the full Rez manual but it’s bigger than the 7Mb upload limit so had to reduce size so you all could see it ASAP maybe Stu could help with a full Rez download
OK let's ask @Stu_Barnes how you place the full version on the forum! Good idea.
That's why I am not sure that some new "European" winch covers are compliant with European laws. like in this example:I notice it says all attachments and devices fitted to the winch rope to be removed before going on public roads in the EU regions which may be of interest to some who are contemplating fixing permanent winch rope thimbles/eyes and to all ways use the winch rope together with the red winch compatible snatch ring S50.

I just watched the LR Time video linked above all the way to the end. I cut it short earlier and missed the turn out of the driveway. That turning radius . . . woof. 😂 That's gonna take some getting used to. I seem to recall seeing a post on here - perhaps by @JeanMercier that suggests the...
No problem if you are going off road, but what if you have an accident with a pedestrian: it could be that the insurance company doesn't want to pay the damage if you did put something non-compliant on your plastic bumper!
. Any modifications should be reported to your insurer or they’ll wriggle out of any claim if they can.In Germany the insurance will always pay. Always! They have to, by law.That's why they are called liability insurance. It doesn't matter if you were doing somethin illegal or have mounted something not allowed.No problem if you are going off road, but what if you have an accident with a pedestrian: it could be that the insurance company doesn't want to pay the damage if you did put something non-compliant on your plastic bumper!
Read my post again. That's exactly what I wrote. However, that is limited to 5000 Euros.
