Gasoline Powered Portable Winch PCW5000 With Forestry Kit 

Things made in North America do tend to be expensive.

For what it does, it IS cheap. Cost/benefit ratio determines a bargain!

They are a handy unit to have around.

They are a useful little piece of equipment.

Sounds like a good use for one.

Thanks.

Also helps keep the operator in a safe place, away from the load being moved.

They are certainly a useful item.

I bet it would as moose have the nasty habit of falling over in the most inconvenient spots.

Google "PCW5000 With Forestry Kit" for multiple hits. That's how to find multiple sources.

My truck is a two wheel drive so it does not go quite the same places as the famous "Chick Magnet". They use those winches on boats around here to pull lobster traps, as you say same principal.

No, I've only used it for pulling logs.

Yes it is.

According to the Portable Winch website the maximum diameter of rope for this machine is 13 m, with the recommended diameter being 12 mm.

Most of my videos are guns/shooting related. My old channel name was just "314299" (which is a Lyman Cast Bullet mold #), but Google/RU-vid changed things with "Google Plus" so that a number only was not acceptable as a channel name, so I added "Shooting Channel" to my old channel name.

Ohhh I had no idea what the number was for. Neat!

With the forestry kit around $1900.

Probably 400mm.

314299 Shooting Channel Saw the Lee Loader for that calibre at the gun shop today. The powder dipper is freakin' huge.

They give the specs on one of their web pages: www.portablewinch.com/ca_en/portable-winches/

Great comment. Shame you don’t know how to press pause…aim for, say :40…good luck!

What gear you need does depend on what sort of trees you are planning to move. Around here they are not too bigh for the most part.

I highly recommend Amsoil small engine oil. Not cheap, but it's night and day next to regular Walmart stuff. It significantly reduced oil consumption for me.

Anytime I put an excessive load on the machine I ended up stalling it, not burning the rope. Were you using the correct rope or just some regular rope? Regular twisted rope is not compatible with these machines.

If you use the proper line as supplied ("zero stretch" line, not braided) there is no significant energy stored in the line, if it breaks it will not snap back at you and there is no particular danger in standing behind the winch. If you are foolish and use regular braided rope (the winch manufacturer warns against using such rope) it will stretch and store considerable energy making anywhere in line with the rope dangerous in the event of a break.

314299 Shooting Channel You are absolutely right, I was making a comment toward the people who would use the wrong rope, and overload the machine. You and I both know they are out there.

It has a gasoline powered internal combustion engine so yes it would produce some of both. It is intended to be used outdoors, not in an enclosed space.
