Compatibility and Fitment
This winch is compatible with most trailers that can provide a mounting pad of at least 135 × 88 mm and sufficient structural support for the pull loads involved. It requires a compatible cable or strap to be added (not supplied). Users must verify alignment with the bow eye for efficient operation.
Compliance and Safety
This winch is suitable only for pulling loads on trailers—not for lifting or hoisting. Always ensure proper cable wraps (minimum three wraps) and inspect the cable, hook, and mounting hardware before use. Stand clear of a loaded cable under tension and never allow people under a suspended load.
Marine Applications
Typical applications include launching and retrieving small boats, loading vessels onto trailers, and general pulling tasks in a marine or waterfront environment. The corrosion-resistant finish and robust steel construction suit use near saltwater environments.
