2.  SPECIFICATIONS & PERFORMANCE

LINE PULL AND LINE SPEED

 vary according to how much cable is 

on the drum. the winch is rated at the first layer of cable on the drum. 

the maximum line pull force will be reduced by subsequent layers of 

cable on the drum. chart 1  illustrates the maximum line force at 

increasing cable layers. You could experience a loss of 13% pulling 

power per layer of cable. Also check any incline on which you are 

pulling as an incline will further reduce the line pulling capacity, 

see chart 6.
