Thanks for your question! We don't think that using plastic-coated cable would cause any problems with the winch, but we do not have any testing data available on this topic, so we can't say for sure. Also, if you are pulling heavy loads or wrapping a lot of cable on the winch, we would not expect the plastic to hold up very long.
Thanks for your question! Make sure that the cable is installed on your winch's reel hub in flat, even layers as shown in this video. Also, be sure that your winch is mounted so the cable comes off it completely straight and not at any sort of an angle, as that can cause the cable to bunch up and slip down between layers.
Thanks for your question! In this video, we show cable being wound onto a winch after using the wrap method at the 3:08 mark. More footage of winding cable onto a winch is found at the 1:40 mark.
Thanks for your question! The size and amount of cable that fits on a winch depends on the type and model of winch. Please let us know which model of D-L winch you own and we would be happy to help you determine what thickness and length of cable we recommend for it.
Thanks for your question! While it is an option to install vinyl coated cable onto a D-L winch, be advised that the vinyl coating may not hold up very well over time. It you do install this type of cable on your winch, you would follow the same method described in this video.
Beautifully explained!Thanks!
Is the last method secure?
Can the cable be plastic coated

@@DuttonLainson please see the link for explaination: ruclips.net/user/shorts3rUiWlIJLbo?feature=share
for the 2nd method, how do you start winding the cable?

How we know winch capacity, and cable load

Can this method be used with vinyl coated cable?
