Connecting Winch Power to H2

[autumn walker]

When you guys hook up the power to your winch do you hook directly to the battery or do you use the remote terminal by the engine? The manual says to hook everything up to the remote terminal... the winch says directly to the battery... which is best?

The winch needs all the current it can get... hook directly to the battery.
What manual says to hook everything up to the remote terminal? In fact what "remote terminal" are you referring to?

I went direct. There is a "remote terminal" mounted to the front driver's side of the block. If you follow the + cable from the battery it goes to this. It is a small red plastic box.

Yup that is exactly what I'm talking about.
