Winch installation options

Portable winch

You don’t have to install a winch at all, but use a portable one. The most popular models of portable winches for Niva are Stokrat SN 6.0 S and Superwinch Winch2GO. The traction is quite sufficient, but you can also increase the traction force using a block. Advantages of a portable winch: versatility - you can pull a car by the front/back, you can pull any car, use the winch on the farm or lend it to a neighbor. In addition, you can make a portable winch yourself to suit any requirements; everything necessary for this (platform, wires, connectors, fasteners) can be purchased at Elektrolebedka.ru.

Stationary winch

Until the end of the article we will talk about stationary winches. If you often use the Niva to conquer off-road terrain, and you have to use a winch quite often, we definitely recommend installing the winch permanently. To install it in a standard bumper, and in the case of the Niva, rather ON a standard bumper, you will need to make or buy a platform. You can easily find how to do this on the Internet. It is recommended to install lightweight winches 6000-6500lbs on the Niva. Below we offer you winches that, according to all criteria, are ideal for installation on the Niva. In most cases, a winch suitable for civilian use is T-MAX ATW 6000, but if you have a seriously prepared car, then it is better to choose a traction force of 6500-8000.

Mounting options

Electric mechanism

You can install a winch on your Niva using one of the three most common options:

• removable design - a special bracket is permanently attached to the car, the winch on the Niva moves in the trunk and is installed on the bracket only if necessary;
• fastening to a power bumper - requires preliminary reliable, strong fixation of a reinforced bumper to the Niva body, on which a car winch is subsequently installed;
• installation of the mount in the front bumper - the platform for the winch is built into the standard front bumper of the Niva, while the design of the device is visually almost invisible.

Do-it-yourself installation of a stove on a VAZ-2108 field.
Just don’t buy a cheap Chinese Vinch. You'll throw away your money. Their current consumption is crazy, but I generally keep quiet about quality. Also keep in mind that the Chinese Winch 9000 is not even 6000. The characteristics are simply overstated...

I decided to take 4x4 12000.

Well, in tourism we very well practice a regular chain hoist with a JET-A type handle with a 4.5 m long chain. She jerks instantly, she doesn’t give a damn about the dirt. The gearbox on the lever is quite traction, and if one is accelerating in the car, and the other is pulling the swan, then with the proper skill everything can be done very quickly. Also, don’t forget that if you hang the same camp with a steel cable, then it’s +50 kg on the front and add the structure of the bumper, braces and platform there.

We have already pulled out the Niva using a hand winch. One is dragging like a swan, and the other is accelerating!

ideal 9.5 comeup or kingone, 6500 will not be enough, although it depends on how you plan to plant. But there is always not enough winch at the most necessary moment and you always want it to move faster =) Don’t just put the swan in the lounge on the field, be sure to stretch the platform onto the beam, then it will stand forever. China Winch is also an option if you use it very rarely. But unlike the camap, having to sort it out once a year, regardless of whether it was shaking or not, the water and other things that get into it will do their job for both the motor and the gearbox.

Understood! Thanks for the info. Can you tell me more about the mounting and platform? I would like to avoid mistakes in advance.

No one is going to argue with you, and no one knows what you are comparing it to. And no one calls your statements bullshit. Be your own opinion.

If you don’t want to fit in additional equipment, then throw the usual manual one in the trunk. For an ordinary person, in the field behind his back.

This one lies in the UAZ, about 2 times it swans foxed 1-2 meters for about 15 minutes

Chinese winch 6000 More than for you

But won't he be weak?

What kind of wheels do you have?*

I just bought a Niva last summer. First of all, I want to install a winch. The tires are currently Kama Flame.

Maybe in time you will understand the commandment: when the car is not prepared, the winch turns from a means of rescue into a means of transportation.

I told you that I only bought a car last summer. And I’m not a millionaire to buy everything at once. Here I asked for advice about the winch, and not about tires and car preparation.

I answered you. Good luck in your choice. I told you my word, and then do as you wish!

Safety regulations

When purchasing and installing any winch on a Niva for your needs, every vehicle owner must know the most important rules for its safe operation.

Here is a short list of these rules:

• a car winch should not be used for vertically lifting a car, transporting people, or as a lifting device;
• when operating the winch, it is prohibited to use power and communication line supports, lighting poles, bridge beams, or other suspended structures as an “anchor”;
• Do not operate devices with damaged cables, shackles, blocks, slings; When working with cables, be sure to use protective gloves;
• when operating winches, the presence of people in the area of ​​expected injury, which is possible due to a sudden cable break, is excluded;
• It is unacceptable to secure the winch cable to a tree without a bark protection sling;
• control of the operation of the device is carried out visually, to the side, at a sufficient distance, but in no case in front of the car;
• You can approach the winch only after first stopping it and loosening the cable tension.

Electrics

Installing an LPG on a Chevrolet Niva

The most popular type of traction devices for Niva today is the electric winch. Structurally, it consists of an electric motor, a cable winding drum, a gearbox, a contact block and a winch control. Its electric motor is powered by the vehicle’s on-board network.

The electric winch is easily mounted on a vehicle, convenient to use, and can be operated with remote control. Unlike mechanical and hydraulic analogues, it can be operated with the Niva engine turned off.

Protection of the housing from atmospheric precipitation should not serve as a basis for the electric winch to be used by car owners for operation under water. If this does happen for any reason, you should not delay the preventive inspection of the winch to check for water ingress and compaction of possible places of its leakage.

Hydraulics

Let's say the owner of a Niva decided to install a winch that operates using a hydraulic motor.

Often, such a winch motor is driven by the car's power steering pump. In this case, the traction power to the winch drum is transmitted by moving the working fluid of the hydraulic pump to the hydraulic motor using special solenoid valves.

But what to do if your Niva is equipped with electric power steering? In this case, you can install a winch, which is equipped with its own hydraulic pump and pulley. This will not be a cheap pleasure, but a car hydraulic winch will help you get out of many difficult, critical situations with dignity. It is very reliable and resistant to overloads, and is often equipped with a maximum power limiter regulator. When peak loads are reached, this device does not break down, but simply stops.

Hydraulic mechanism

The tightness of the hydraulic motors allows this type of winches to operate even when immersed in water. Hydraulic winches are high-torque, durable, and can be controlled remotely.

Among the disadvantages of this type of device, it should be noted the low speed of rewinding the cable and the impossibility of operation with the car engine turned off.

Which winch should I put on the Niva, Niva Chevrolet?

• T-MAX ATW-6000: a lightweight version of the offroad winch, the ideal combination of price and quality. The weight of the equipment is only 16 kg, so there will be no overload of the front end. It is installed permanently - on the front bumper body. Motor power 2.0 l/s, cable reserve 18 meters, reeling speed 13 m/min;
• T-MAX 6500: a good solution for Niva 2121. Classic installation, weight with metal cable 29 kg, motor power 5.6 l/s, speed 12 m/min;
• HUNDRED SD 8.0 SSW: modification for real off-road. Installation permanently on the bumper, declared thrust 3700 kg, power 5.6 l/s, steel cable length 25 meters, reeling speed 11 m/min;
• Octopus 6000 “Niva”: for Niva and Chevrolet Niva. The installation is similar to previous modifications, weight 26 kg, power 1.7 l/force, thrust 2800 kg, winding speed 5.3 m/min.

Correct installation of an LPG with your own hands on a Chevrolet Niva

To finally determine the type of winch for the Niva, select a modification: stationary or mobile (portable). Obviously, portable ones are not as strong as stationary ones, but they are also in demand along with other modifications.

Electric winch T-MAX ATW-6000 OFF-ROAD Improved

The lightest winch is only 10-12 kg with a thrust of 6000lbs, sufficient for a Niva

Go to product Consultation

This winch has a uniquely powerful pull for its size and weight. Its installation will not affect the car’s handling in any way, but it will cope with almost any difficulties. The winch is ideal for all types of off-road rides, but the operating speed is too low for competitions.

There is also an analogue with a synthetic cable

Homemade winches from various materials

A winch can be made from a variety of readily available materials. These are mainly spare parts from automotive equipment, other devices and mechanisms whose service life has expired. Finding available materials - metal pipes, iron sheets, different types of cables is also not a problem. There are several types of winches that are increasingly popular.

Winch from starter

A DIY starter winch is a convenient option for saving money. In order for a homemade winch from a starter to realize its potential, you will need:

• 12 volt gear starter (easy to find from VAZ 2106 or 2110).
• As a gearbox (reduction), you can get by with a drill assembly.
• For the casing that covers the space between the engine and the gearbox, a piece of pipe (for example, PVC) is suitable. It should be easy to disassemble for access inside and maintenance of the device.
• The drum is often made of durable (from 120 mm) steel pipe and sheet iron (2-3 mm).
• Gears, cable, electrical wiring.

IMPORTANT! To prevent the battery from draining quickly, it is worth reducing the consumption of the electric drive. It is better to use a 12 volt starter with a planetary gearbox. This is the most compact and lightweight option

This is the most compact and lightest option.

To make such a winch from a starter, a platform is made from a sheet of metal, and components are attached to it. The drum seats are then welded to it. The gearbox is welded so that the input shaft is on top. An adapter for the starter is attached to the gearbox, and gear teeth are attached to the input shaft. For this, the flywheel crown is used. Then the starter and wiring are attached.

Winch from wiper motor

To make a winch, you can use a motor that previously used a windshield wiper or windshield wipers for its work. These devices are capable of showing good results and lifting weights up to 300 kg.

It is popular to use such a mechanism to mount a blade on a vehicle of sufficient cross-country ability (for example, Niva) - for clearing snow or similar tasks.

Winch from KAMAZ ratchet

A truck brake ratchet (a self-leveling mechanism for adjusting brakes) is a popular option for a homemade winch. Many people use the KAMAZ version of the ratchet, since KAMAZ is widespread and parts from it are easy to find. Such a mechanism can lift from 400 kg to 2 tons. The popularity of this option is due to the use of a worm gear in the mechanism.

IMPORTANT! The place where such a device is used is often a garage where heavy loads need to be moved. The garage version is used for working with large car parts. Such a mechanism can be installed on a boat to facilitate loading and unloading or raising and releasing anchors

The anchor mechanism of such a winch must provide an auto-reset function

Such a mechanism can be installed on a boat to facilitate loading and unloading or raising and releasing the anchor. The anchor mechanism of such a winch must provide an auto-reset function.

For production you will need:

• Two rear ratchets of the truck.
• Two hooks.
• Cable 4-5 mm thick.
• Fist for releasing brake pads.
• Bolt for fastening the hook.

Required Accessories

When you have decided how to install a winch on your Niva, it’s time to equip it with the accessories necessary for successful operation.

Minimum required accessories:

• protective gloves - for safe work with the cable;
• block (minimum 1 pc.) - helps to enhance the traction effect;
• shackle (minimum 1 pc.) - a bracket for connecting chains, cables, blocks, slings;
• bark protection sling (minimum 1 pc.) – protects trees from damage when used as an “anchor”;
• shovel;
• axe.

Choosing a winch for Niva

When choosing a winch for the Niva, we pay attention to a lot of technical data and get lost in them. We do not take into account the hydraulic and mechanical type of winch, since these models are for real “gourmets”

Winch traction forces: calculating power

• The total thrust of the mechanism should be 2.5 times greater than the total mass of the SUV (Niva). For example, the curb weight is 1860 kg, plus four passengers weighing 70 kg, plus luggage weighing 100 kg. If there is a tourist rack on the roof of the car, add another 50-70 kg of weight. Ultimately, the winch thrust should exceed 3700 - 4000 tons. Use a less powerful one if you are sure that the SUV will be used exclusively in urban conditions;
• On the Chevrolet Niva, they install a lightweight version of the winch due to the high risk of the front part of the car tilting due to its weight. Touring metal cables are still too heavy for the Chevrolet Niva. Recommended towing force 2800 kg;
• Equipment and technical characteristics: dust and moisture resistance, power of the power unit, operating speed, distance (gap) between the drum and the housing.

Installing a winch on a Chevrolet Niva

Durable and lightweight platform, easy installation, no welding!

Go to product Consultation

This platform was designed specifically for Niva. Simple installation and geometrically correct design are the main advantages of the site. It comes with amplifiers, which ensures high reliability of fastening and does not damage the car body. No welding required during installation!

Chevrolet Niva. Winch, blocking, lift, snorkel and tow bar.

On the agenda is the discreet installation of a 9500lb winch in a Chevrolet Niva with a Bertoni body kit. And also: installation of a snorkel, suspension lift, blocking in the rear axle and installation of a tow bar.

The car is planned for fishing trips. Therefore, it was decided to begin with limiting ourselves to such a modest alteration. And, during the process of operation and the acquisition of off-road experience, the owner of the car will have a sober vision of what is still missing and what else could be prepared for off-roading.

One of the interesting difficulties in this project is definitely the secretive installation of the winch. Yes, not just a winch, but a full-fledged heavy-duty 9500lb one (it is the same in size as the 12000lb one). For those who don’t know, there is very little space in the pulley for installing a winch and they usually install 6000lb quads. And even such small ones stick out from the bumper. Difficulties in installation are also due to the presence of an air conditioner radiator and a power steering coil.

But, the task is set primarily for yourself and must be completed. So - a completely secret installation of a full-fledged winch in a pulley with air conditioning.

Jack up and remove the wheels and bumper.

Then, we throw out the power steering coil. Firstly, the power steering works perfectly without it. And secondly, the coil is made of metal. There is no heat transfer. And in fact, he is stuck there for show off.

We move the air conditioner radiator upward and cut the crashbox to the root. Right next to the main radiator.

We don’t pay attention to the fact that the A/C radiator supports were sawed off. Because we will move it closer to the main radiator and re-support it.

Next is the area for the winch. We try it on and trim where it gets in the way. We’re also figuring out where to place the supports for the air conditioner radiator.

In general, after many fittings, manipulations and alterations of the A/C radiator mounts, we drill new supports for the A/C radiator.

We paint the mounting brackets for the A/C radiator in a “sports” color. Definitely will add power to the airflow

As a result, we have several centimeters between the winch and the A/C radiator. Yes a little. But this will allow you to use a 20-meter iron cable without thinking; I’m generally silent about the “rope”.

Mark the holes for the hawse.

Let's stop at this stage for now. Because the disassembled front end is quite convenient for lifting the front suspension and installing a snorkel.

Front lift.

Here the scheme has been worked out and tested more than once. Reinforced springs taking into account the additional weight of the winch and elevator. A duralumin spacer under the upper ball joint, moving the mounting point of the standard shock absorber.

Types of automobile winches

But try to install a structure weighing under 30 kg, about the same as a removable winch with a platform weighs when the car is already sunk in the mud and the bracket guides are below its level! So, not a single element of the winch protrudes beyond the plane of the extreme point of the bumper. At this stage, this shnivas threw a specific pig at me. In order to remove the gearbox, it is necessary to lift out the axle shafts.

BRACKET FOR REMOVABLE WINCH FRONT CHEVROLET NIVA

If the right one came out with the first blow of the reverse hammer, then the left axle shaft took three days to be removed. Karl, this infection drank my blood for three days... I spent all my chemical waste on a soured bearing.

In ascending order I reached the gas burner. So what do you think, Karl? It didn’t help... And then, a man with good energy for unscrewing hard-to-reach nuts came to visit and, bitch, she got out with the second blow?!

Ta-ba-dums... Well, how can you not believe in the garage god? In addition to their height, springs also differ in coil thickness.

I decided not to leave the standard shock absorbers. You can, of course, install other shock absorber brackets with a reduced shoulder, but there is a nuance here. The rear of the field is much lighter than the front and its articulation is much more amplitude. Therefore, it makes sense to compensate for the lift with a shock absorber with increased travel.

The shock absorber itself is oil-based, double-acting and incomparably better than the standard one. Installing such a mechanism is not difficult.

Types of automobile winches

There are 3 types of winches for cars:

• Mechanical
• Hydraulic
• Electrical

Mechanical winches for cars operate directly from the car engine. A special power take-off box is connected to the transfer case. It is from this device that the winch receives its torque. Such winches are distinguished by: reliability, high power, unpretentiousness; the ability to change the speed of winding the cable by changing the engine speed. The main disadvantage of such winches is that they can only be installed on SUVs whose transfer cases allow the connection of a power take-off.

Hydraulic winches are devices powered by a hydraulic motor. It is usually driven by a pump in the power steering. Buying a hydraulic winch for a Chevrolet Niva means getting significant advantages: high reliability of the hydraulic motor; the ability to work under water (with a sealed hydraulic motor), resistance to overloads (the hydraulic motor does not break, it simply stops).

Among the disadvantages of this winch is the low speed of rewinding the cable (this parameter may be critical for athletes). In addition, it is impossible to work with the engine turned off; One pump in the power steering is often not enough for the simultaneous operation of this power steering and the winch.

An electric winch is powered by an electric motor powered by the vehicle's power supply. Today this is a widespread type of winches for Niva Chevrolet SUVs. Such winches are distinguished by their simple design, convenient use and ease of installation, as well as the ability to operate when the engine is turned off. However, this significantly increases the consumption of electricity from the vehicle network.

Winches are very useful devices that often help you get out of the most difficult situations. Such mechanisms are widespread among motorists, in particular the winch on the Chevrolet Niva. Such devices are designed to move or lift a variety of loads.

In addition, winches can be used as a power actuator. After the invention of the electric motor, compact and very convenient electric winches were invented, most often used by motorists.

And yet, manual (mechanical) winches, powered by human muscle power, continue to be used today.

How to choose a hand winch?

If you want to purchase an excellent assistant for building a house, for a garage or for an SUV, you need to take into account the design features and other nuances of this device. Let us immediately clarify that hoists are better suited for vertical lifting. A hand winch is primarily designed for dragging loads horizontally or at an angle, although many craftsmen have learned to adapt them as lifting mechanisms.

The main criteria when choosing hand winches:

The safety of work depends on the quality of the cable laying mechanism and its fixation. A manual winch for a car must be purchased with a power reserve so that it can pull the car at an angle. To dismantle or install a car engine in a garage, a traction force of up to 1 ton is enough. For car winches on SUVs, a cable length of up to 30 m is required. A construction manual winch for operation mainly requires a cable length of up to 10 m. Be sure to pay attention to the compactness of the device , if you plan to constantly transport it in the trunk. A chain hand winch can withstand significant force, but if there is a sudden change in load, the chain links can burst. The cable is less durable, but thanks to its twisted structure it is not afraid of sudden changes in load.

Rating of hand winches

Studying catalogs describing the best new products of the year helps you choose the right device for your car, garage or construction site. As an example, we suggest looking at a small TOP of drum and lever type devices in different price categories:

1. Matrix 52225 is a popular budget device with a tractive force of up to 1.6 tons, weight 6 kg, gear ratio 15:1, cable diameter 5 mm, cable length 2.8 m.
2. STAYER 4310-2 – load capacity of 1 t at a lifting height of up to 3 m, develops a force of 2 t on terrain with a slope of up to 15º, has a reinforced body.
3. Haul-Master 95541 – Works with polyester flex belt, steel body, 900 lb (approx. 400 kg) attachment capacity.
4. Sportsman W1000 - Comes with 32' heavy duty steel cable, 1000 lb (454 kg) maximum lifting capacity, 2.7 kg weight, forged gear, anti-corrosion body coating.
5. Invincible Marine BR59230 - Cable Hand Drum Winch, Corrosion Resistant Assembly, Galvanized Frame, Hand Winch Capacity 600 lbs (up to 270 kg), Compact size suitable for boat or garage.

Electric winch STOKRAT SD 8.0 SSW

For a Niva with serious off-road training - power in a compact package.

Go to product Consultation

Stokrat engineers managed to create a winch with a traction force of 8000lbs in a compact body. This winch has the same power motor as the T-MAX 6500 and a slower 216:1 gearbox. Despite this, the winch not only outperforms its closest competitor in terms of power, but according to the manufacturer, it also demonstrates the same winding speed. This model went on sale in 2015, replacing the winch with a traction force of 6000lbs.

Which winch should you choose for the Niva?

First, you need to decide on the type of winch - do you want to install a permanent winch, or use a portable one. We have a whole section of portable winches. We recommend looking at winches with a thrust of 4000lbs.

In case of stationary installation, in most cases the T-MAX ATW PRO 6000 winch is suitable. This compact and lightweight (only 12 kg) winch with good traction is ideal for off-road enthusiasts, hunters, fishermen and off-road tourism enthusiasts.

The 6500 winch is also a popular solution for installation on Niva and Chevy Niva - it is powerful and fast, but weighs more than 2 times more. We recommend this winch for athletes, as well as those who use a winch very often.

If you have a seriously prepared car, power bumpers are installed, large wheels with toothy tires and you take a heavy load on trips - your option is the Hundred 8.0, Master Winch 8500A or Runva 9.5 XS.

In any case, they don’t take money for asking. Call, ask questions, we will be happy to help you with your choice!

And finally - beautiful rides on Nivas and Chevy Nivas in the mountains of Karachay-Cherkessia

Electric winch T-MAX EW-6500 OFF-ROAD Improved

Powerful and fast winch - for regular use and for competitions

Go to product Consultation

This winch has a powerful 5.5 HP motor. and a fast gearbox of 172:1 - which in total provides it with a speed (at maximum load) 2 times higher than that of the T-MAX ATW 6000 winch. A fast and powerful winch will confidently pull your Niva out of any mud. However, this model weighs 30 kg. We recommend installing the T-max 6500 if the winch is expected to be used very often or the car is being prepared for participation in competitions.

Device selection and final recommendations

Of course, for the owner of an ordinary passenger car or a car that is operated strictly within city limits, such a device may be absolutely useless. But for true supporters of fishing, hunting, mushroom pickers and lovers of off-road travel, installing a winch on the Niva is a must. It will be indispensable when freeing it from snow or mud captivity, water, bogs and other similar off-road conditions, which abound in our open spaces.

It is very important to choose and install the winch correctly on your Niva so that it is as efficient in use as possible, matches the technical parameters of the car and does not spoil its visual appeal. The traction force of the purchased winch should exceed the total weight of the Niva by 1.5-2 times

Decide in advance where to install the device: in the front of the car, in the rear, on the front arch, in the bumper. Knowing the expected operating conditions of your Niva and the features of using winches of all types will allow you to choose for yourself a mechanical, hydraulic or electric type.

The traction force of the purchased winch should exceed the total weight of the Niva by 1.5-2 times. Decide in advance where to install the device: in the front of the car, in the rear, on the front arch, in the bumper. Knowing the expected operating conditions of your Niva and the features of using winches of all types will allow you to choose a mechanical, hydraulic or electric type for yourself.

A specialized automotive service station can help you with installing the entire set of traction devices on the Niva, which will also take on warranty obligations. The safe operation of the device, the reliability of its operation and the longevity of operation will depend on correct installation in the future.

Take a serious and balanced approach to choosing and installing a winch on your car. This will allow you to ensure the availability of any road conditions for your Niva in the future.

Finally, the stars lined up in a favorable way, and this long-awaited “action” took place. The winch had been collecting dust since December last year. The need for a winch in the arsenal of “special equipment” on my car has long been obvious, but somehow everything did not work out due to various micro and macro reasons. The winch itself is one of the most budget-friendly options for all kinds of semi-unnamed “electric quinches”, with a declared pulling force of 8000 pounds or 3.6 tons. For some time I seriously considered the option of installing a winch in the cabin. The design of the installation site was ready and calculated, all the necessary junk was purchased (special fairleads, etc.). But subsequently the idea of ​​the need and benefit of free internal space prevailed. One of the important points of the technical specification was that the winch should be installed in the context of a standard bumper. I tried to make a structure for installation from quadrant and rectangular profile pipes. Calculations showed that everything was fine. The design turned out to be quite light and original. But during the manufacturing and fitting process, a number of obvious flaws and systemic shortcomings emerged. I had to abandon this idea. The first damn thing is lumpy. I lost a lot of time, but I trained). Started all over again).

The main technical concept of the new already implemented design:

1) The winch is fixed on brackets attached to the brace rods coming from the front suspension beam. 2) The winch is fixed on transverse horizontal rods attached to the cantilever brackets coming from the side members. 3) The braces are attached to the front suspension beam using parts welded to beam (seams in horizontal and vertical planes). 4) Each of the cantilever brackets is attached to the side members with two bolts (in horizontal and vertical planes).

The basic idea and operating principles of the design are clearly understood from the pictures:

Mechanical devices

The mechanical winch on the Niva is driven by a power take-off unit, which is attached to the transfer case of the vehicle. It is this design that generates the torque of the mechanical device, and the speed of winding the cable is regulated by changing the engine speed. To install such a winch, you may have to use the services of a qualified car mechanic, but this is exactly the case when the ends justify the means.

Installing a winch with a mechanical drive means equipping your Niva with a reliable, unpretentious device of increased power. It is a mechanical winch that many experienced car enthusiasts and professionals consider to be the most optimal equipment option necessary to overcome difficult off-road conditions.

Manual operation mechanism

However, compared to other types of winches, mechanical winches can be the most expensive option. Also, it does not have a remote control and cannot be used alone. When using it, it is impossible for one person to simultaneously control the winding of the cable and regulate the speed of its winding by engine speed.

Branch cutters:

How many times have you wondered why an SUV has those cables stretched from the front bumper to the roof? Now I know - these are branch cutters (another name is trophy rails), which deflect tree branches from falling into the “lobovukha”.
