  • Here you see us setting up the winch, setting up rigging with a redirect, and winching out hung up and storm damaged trees with a PCW3000 Portable Petrol / Gasoline Capstan Winch. For the first time we use the fixed tree mount for the winch, and set up a redirect pulley. The PCW3000 Portable winch has the petrol Honda GX35 Engine. For a small winch, it performs well on some very long trees.

    When tying on to the drag, the strop should be as close to the butt as possible, to save digging-in or snagging, as happened almost immediately.

      @@JamesTheForester I am interested in purchasing this to make a pile driver. Does this only pull in rope that’s horizontal to the winch or can it also manage a vertical rope? I will only be pulling up a 350 lb steel bar and then dropping it on the post at free fall speed. I initially build this mechanism using hydraulics but I am having trouble dropping the weight really fast and my research indicates that this might be the answer to my free fall problem. Can you please share your thoughts? Thanks!!!

      @@Failedmusician the rope always needs to come out more or less horizontally but you could rig up some 90 degree redirect pulleys to direct it where you need it. I suppose the issue would be rigging up a rope progress capture system which could take over holding the load strain from the winch and also quick release.

      I would imagine 2nd hand will have been worked hard. They rev very high to generate the torque so even though this particular model has a Honda engine which is very reliable and long lasting I would still buy brand new.

    • @JamesTheForester
      @JamesTheForester  6 месяцев назад

      The small one you see in the video should do it. All you need to do is just keep adding pulleys to double up the Pull strength while you half the pull speed. You'd be surprised at some of the monster trees we have pulled with that winch. many thanks for the comment. Good luck!

    Smart winch indeed! Have you had any issues with the winch/motor at all?

    • @JamesTheForester
      @JamesTheForester  2 года назад +1

      No. None at all. It is a Honda motor so ultra-reliable. It is a 4-stroke as well so you don't need to worry about mixing up 2-stroke fuel. Just use good quality engine oil and change it regularly.

      Do you mean coiling over on itself? Make sure the drum is angled slightly away from the working end of the line. Use a redirect if you need to make sure the angle is exactly right even on a straight ahead pull. Good luck.
