RichardAllen Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 I want to use a spare warning light on my 90's dash to show when the winch isolation switch is closed and the winch is therefore powered up. I have not been able to find a winch symbol, even from such authorities as Google and David Bowyer. So is there anyone out there who knows of a standard winch symbol ? Or can anyone come up with something better than my pretty poor effort: All contributions welcome. Regards Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 how about one of these: not pictorial, but does exactly what it says on the tin... available from x-eng or mudstuff if you want a sheet... Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveG Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 As above, used Carling switches plus Mudstuff/X-eng decals.. Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardAllen Posted June 1, 2009 Author Share Posted June 1, 2009 David Bowyer suggested "WINCH" either as a decal (eg Mudstuff sheet) or dymo tape, but I was after a symbol. Mostly because if there is no symbol, perhaps there ought to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandyManLuke Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 I recall seeing something similar to the attached before, can't remember where though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandyManLuke Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Durite Modular switches - Similar idea to Carling switches, modular framed mounting, large range etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 http://www.britax-pmg.com/prodguid1/511Inserts.pdf for Britax-SWF rocker switches, lots of icons to chose from, only problem is just buying 1 of each as they tend to come in packs of 5 or 10 the mudstuff labels are probably the easiest to use.

Superpants Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 The official symbol is defined in ISO 2575 Road Vehicles- Symbols For Control as; Winch Symbol This is the master spec that most countries use for symbols for switches and warning lights- there are exceptions (of course)!

Nice pic - should be quite easy to turn that into a sticker or insert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
