Many of the same design features as popular D-L trailer winches, but with some important differences. In a nutshell, these winches can be used for vertical ifting, whereas trailer winches are for horizontal pulling only. Brake winches have no ratchet, so they're always "in gear"..... there is no neutral, or free-wheel mode. A friction braking system is built in, so the load is always locked in place any time the handle is released.
This winch is built for multi-purpose hauling and lifting operations. It is not
to be used as a hoist for lifting, supporting, or transporting people, or for
loads over areas where people could be present.
