Better than a come-along winch. Using a simple hand powered winch (The More Power Puller) we were able to extract a 12,000 pound Bobcat (M-970) from a snowy ditch.
I bought the 3-Ton model that has the Amsteel Blue (Dyneema SK-75 Fiber) rope, and I love it! This winch is rated for 3 ton dead lift and 6 ton drag! The More Power Puller has an all Ductile iron frame, with a heavy duty steel reel. The More Power Puller comes with a heavy duty block with a heavy duty hook.
The whole winch weights only about 24 pounds and is much more compact than most other pullers. The Frame is about 13 inches long, and the over-all hook to block length is about 21 inches. both the regular handle (18 inches long) and the optional extension handle (also 18 inches long) are easily removed for even more compact stowage.
This winch comes with a little over 35 feet of rope, making possible a 35 foot (single line) pull or a 17.5 foot (double line) pull. Longer pulls mean fewer resets. Most of the other pullers I looked at only had a total of 10 to 12 feet of wire rope.
I purchased an optional extension handle, and find it to be highly recommended, especially when doing sinlge line pulls.
This winch is a quality American made product. The ductile iron frame is American made. The Amsteel Blue rope is made in America, and the whole winch is assembled in Ohio!
This winch is a true heritage tool that can be passed down to the next generation. The winch comes with a two year warranty.
