Design and winch features
Any long and durable object of any diameter can be used as a lever: a metal pipe, a stick, a shank for a shovel, etc.
For more comfortable work with a manual winch, side stabilizers are used - they are also pegs for a tent or awning.
The advantages of such a winch are obvious: it is light (its weight is about 2 kg), has a compact size - it can fit in the trunk without problems, powerful and reliable.
In addition, this winch is maintenance-free and compatible with all types of levers and cables. With such combined characteristics, it is not so easy to find a winch for sale. And to do it yourself is very easy.
