Drawbar
Do not use the drawbar as an anchor point for a multipoint
(over puller) line from the winch. Loads applied to the
drawbar are transmitted to the bolts holding the winch
to the tractor. Standard integral drawbars are designed
to handle pulls of 66% of winch rated capacity; bolt on
drawbars are 60%. Optional heavy duty and extended
drawbars are available which increase the capacity of
the drawbar and/or move the pin farther back so it is not
under the winch drum.
Optional Gear Ratios
Lower speed ratios allow better operator control of line
speed. They may also allow the winch to pull in excess of
wire rope or winch rated capacity. They do not increase
the durability or damaging load limit of the winch. Line
pulls in excess of rated capacity will dramatically reduce
the life of winch components.
