Powering the speed controller outputs

SCENARIO:

Powering a motor wired to a speed controller from the two output screws with a battery + alligator clips.

I will be running the motor directly to a battery through the screws+terminal on the speed controller.

Does anyone know if this would damage the speed controller in anyway? Having power run into the output terminals on the speed controller?

This is being done to shift some motors powering a winch.
