- Lonsge Portable Drill Winch pulling a big stump. First attempy failed and broke the cable. The company YooKoo replaced it with a new winch. I got it overnight! I highly recommend this winch!
A hazard is that you are necessarily standing in the line of whiplash should that steel cable part under tension. Use a blanket over the cable as well as hard hat with face shield . Also use a snatch block to double the power. I have the Warn version of that winch, very useful for unique tasks such as loading a heavy mower up ramps into a pickup.
Thanks for the good info. I appreciate it.
Pulling stumps it's easy if you use an aframe 2x4's or 4x4 or steel a frame to make the pull up as close to straight up as possible.... comes out way way easier
Thats powerful for a little winch . impressive 👍
I'm glad I happened upon this video. What great PR they did by sending you a new on over night. I am very impressed with the power of that lil guy. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! I'll be using it again soon. I'll keep you posted.
Great little winch..So next tree you want to pull,be sure and leave 8-10 ft..You get way more leverage.My pops was a logger and all around can do type of guy..Made it work..Thanks!
You’re so right about leaving 8-10ft. Next time for sure! Thanks for your advice.
You should use the tire trick. It involves more vertical force than lateral force and works far better.
Wow is right I’m impressed.
Thanks!
Thanks for the video! I just ordered one for winching everything.
You’re welcome! Enjoy the winch.
🎉🎉🎉that little thing has some power!!
It surprised me how much power that little thing has!
Very impressive small winch 😮.
It amazes me every time I use it! Thanks!
First issue is you need to pull out as much cable as you can. You need to be using the first layer of cable on the drum. That gives you the highest rating. Each wrap over that the winch looses power. You can also use a single pulley and double the power. And for that price of what you got you could have got a 12v one with a 3500lb pulling power.
Thanks for the good info. After I posted this I bought a snatch block and have used it a few times. I didn’t know that pulling out the cable would give more a higher rating. Btw, this winch out pulls my 2000lb 12 volt winch.
@@richardizui703 The more layers, you are changing the diameter of the drum... that changes the 'gearing'. Using the first wrap is using a smaller drum, having say, three layers on makes the drum larger and less gearing. And for being better than your 2000lb one, it's not the winch, it's the drill that does that... but, decent vid overall.
I was expecting a larger stump. Next time cut the tree higher....like 2 to 5 feet up for more leverage. I have a stump pulling project of a tree that was close to 60 feet tall. I cut down to where the trunk merged to two smaller trunks about 10 ft high. So far some of the roots are partially crumbly. I am using a come-a-long. I have dug down about a foot to expose some roots that are 8 to 12 inches diameter. I also have soaked the root trench to soften the soil. Patience and persistence. I will plant a new sapling in the remaining hole. GOD JOB.
Thanks for the info. I'm new at this so I appreciate any good tips. Good luck with your project. Those roots will be cracking soon!
Well made video, im going to check out this winch.
Thanks!
As well as having your pull as high as you can, your anchor point should be as low as possible. Winches work stronger with less cable on the drum, just a handfull of turns left is best. One thing I see many people doing is hooking the cable back onto itself, this is an excellent way to ruin a winch cable. For stump pulling I put an old wheel next to the stump and run the pull over it, this creates lift and can defeat the most stubborn trees.
Great info. Thanks!
Next time, if you keep the stump taller you’ll have a far easier time pulling it out. Mechanical advantage.
I learned my lesson on that one! Thanks!
That was amazing!
Thanks!
Wow! That's a powerful little winch. I've pulled stumps like that with a come-a-long, a shovel, a steel bar and a battery operated reciprocating saw. I needed all four tools.
Kind scary though as it looked like your head was in line with the winch cable.
I had a sandbag covering the cable so I think I was safe but you’re right it looked scary.
good way to loose an eye. cable inline view and light weight cable.
You’re probably right but I did have a sandbag covering the cable to keep it from flying back at me. Maybe I’ll use a snatch block next time. Thanks!
Put a tire under the cable near the stump so it pulls the stump upward
Great idea! Next time I’ll try that.
Wow, this is so impressive!!!! There's a guy on yt who pulls stumps with intricate pulleys, seems sound and intellect beyond my own (not sarcasm) but his tree huggers kept slipping out. Having metal, I was fearing for your life! He eventually cut a hook with a chainsaw into the stump a third of the way. The tree huggers are far safer but wow the metal wire really works better. We can't argue with results! I'd imagine your winch broke/overheated due to overuse. Try doing little by little because the stump will still keep breaking as it reaches equilibrium. As the steel heats from the speed, the wire becomes soft and breaks as would the winch itself. May I suggest a backup tether for if the cable fails your direction? That's the climber in me talking. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for your comment. Any new info helps. The winch company did send me this new unit with the metal cable but on the one that broke I replaced the metal broken cable with a synthetic cable. I'm waiting to try it out. You're right about safety, I always cover the metal cable with a sand bag in case it breaks. I also use tree huggers on the winch side of the set up.
@@richardizui703 I hope I didn't come across too critical, I meant well thanks for understanding:) the sand bags are cool, simple and effective :D clever. Ah dyneema cord is the stuff, I think they say its strongER than steel :o cool about the soft shackles it makes sense. Dyneema will be eaten by the bark so be aware of its abrasion weaknesses. Metal anchor with dyneema on a carabeener I imagine? I'll check I subbed :D I look forward to it
Snatch block to double your power. If you keep adding pulleys, you'll keep multiplying your power.
I was about to make this comment. The is the best suggestion it can be made. And also leaving the stomp a little longer/higher gives more leverage.
Great little winch. By the way, what is the bright pink tree/bush in the background?
It’s a Burning Bush and turns that color in the fall.
Replace that old fashioned wire cable with 1/4” dyneema winch rope. Much safer!
I took your advice and replaced the wire cable with rope cable. Thanks!
Wow I would think that drill would burn out doing that, could you use an impact gun instead?
I think it's only set up for drills. You would need an adapter for an impact drill. I've only used a 3/8" and 1/2" and they work great.
That sure did surprise me!
How many roots did you cut before you hooked up the winch?
Not many, just some smaller ones near the surface. The winch got the big ones.
@@richardizui703 I could hear them breaking!
The stump you pulled would come very easy if you pulled upwards with a redirect as i said in my other post use an a frame ... or use a tire or wheel to redirect
I’ve learned that from others as well. Next time I’ll try that. Thanks!
Next time put a tire under the cable as close to the stump as possible to change the angle to and upwards pull. Trust me.
That’s great info. Thanks! I happen to have a tire available.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Good information, although you can cut out the first 4.5 minutes. 😁
Thanks, I’m new to this and still learning.
@@richardizui703 I will say this, it is a helpful video. Thanks!
You didn't have your sandbag or since up higher a heavy blanket, should it have broke again.
I had my sandbag on the whole time. It’s that little black thing on the cable. I like your suggestion of a heavy blanket. I’ll try that next time.
Use a snatch block. Zero issues like you just did
I thought about it but decided to try a direct pull first just to test the new winch.
RUclips can be your friend, research before using anything with potential danger involved. You have a RUclips channel, how about visiting other channels thru search option.
I took your advice and subscribed to your channel. Thanks!
I'm going to google it's whereabouts..... Thanx 😀
I got it on Amazon. Look for Baby Winch.
@@richardizui703
Thanks..... that thing is really neat
Totemo ii desu ne ..
Thanks!
Scary as if it t snapped that cable would cut you bad, better thanks God your alive and think smarter with common sense.
