Portable Gas-Powered Winch
It weighs just 35 lbs. yet can pull 1,800 lbs. when equipped with a single line, and 3,000 lbs. when equipped with a double line. Average line speed with no load is 32 ft. per minute. A cable tie-down equipped with two hooks is used to anchor the unit. A nylon tie-down/carry strap and a ground anchor are also available. Other options include an extension cable with hook, pulley block, cable pulling clamps, and nylon tow strap.
"It works great any time you can't get a vehicle back in the woods, so hunters and loggers really like it," says the company. "Hunters can use it to pull game out of the woods, and loggers can use it to pull in small logs."
Made by Rule, the winch is available at Cabela's and Northern Tools.
Sells for about $600.
