Review: Almost perfect. Almost... - I purchased this winch to fit in the apex of my garage roof trusses and dangle through the loft access in order to left heavy items onto my trailer, or lift my trailer on end for storage or, say lift my generator onto a work bench. etc... My comments are these.. The mains lead is stupid short and the plug is some convoluted mess to convert whatever far east standard connector is fitted to the cable, to a UK 13 A plug. I will cut this off and wire it into a wall box then to a local 13A socket. Why the cable is this short is anyone's guess. I would expect at least 1m, 2m at most. The cable LOOKS like super tough supremo quality but it isn't.. Clip it to the wall and leave it... The control box had a non latching rocker switch for UP and DOWN. The round emergency stop button is pointless because if you let go of the thing, it all stops. I suspect this is a generally available control handle with a pre fitted stop button. For me, I will cut this monstrosity off and replace it with a radio control or fit a relay box so I can route a thinner cable to a more convenient workshop position. Even this cable is stupid short though asked what length I should prefer, I cannot give an answer as we each have a different idea of how we will use the winch ..., hence the radio.adaptation. The steel wire attached to the control cable is over engineering in my view. Were I to retain the control handle, I would remove the wire AND the control arm that prevents over winding. There;s Health ans safety, and complication for complications sake. The routing of the steel winching wire to activate this safety device is not clear and with the winch beyond easy reach in the rafters, I need a mechanical snarl up at height like a hole in the head. On the plus side, mechanically, the winch looks and sounds the part. If there is a grease nipple for the gearbox, I have yet to find it. The additional pulley block that doubles up the winch capacity is a hand tools effort to spilt and reassemble so you can wrap the winch wire into it, so, select 125KG or 250kg and live with it. Addition of the 250kg pulley also prevents the red disk activating the auto stop arm as far as I can determine. I may be wrong but these devices need to work without human supervision or they are worthless. As this emergency stop bracket is plastic, I may remove it I am aware that the steel winch cable, if tension is removed, will unwind on the reel so I would advice keeping some tension on the wire when not in use. Despite all of the above, for the price, for domestic home use, it is ideal in my opinion. Some modification is on the cards in my application. Additional lubrication of the additional pulley and a light spray oil on the winch cable is required. I would recommend.
Review: Extra facts and tips - and my remote control mod - Some observations to add to other reviews: * Cable thickness is 3mm * If you want to use the supplied pulley block to obtain 2:1 this is hooked to the back of the body when looked at with the controls on the left. * A strain wire is clipped to the operating switch to prevent it being over-stretched. This is prudent but awkward when it comes to coiling. It can be removed at your own risk etc. * As well as the auto-shutoff which is operated by the red disc in the picture pushing against the black arm, there is an over-spooling shutoff. That is the little silver arm you can see above the black arm. The idea is that if the wire spools too much in one place it will push the arm away and switch off the motor. You can adjust the sensitivity of this arm, but after trials I found it easier to disconnect it. * For my own application, as beam mounting was impractical, I mounted this using two bits of roofing batten supported immediately either side by strong metal brackets and this is working fine. * The mains cable is short as others have said - well under a metre. It is not particularly easy (though possible) to rewire into the hoist itself so you may well prefer to use an extension lead and replace the converter which others have said is unreliable. I did that though I have to say the converter looked decent enough. My own application for this is a little non-standard. I need to get loaded wheelie bins up 16 steps. I mounted the hoist at the top of the flight just below a ceiling. I took the supplied pulley block and loose-bolted it through two D plates fixed to the wall below (so it swings). The cable passes through this, so it comes straight down from the hoist, round the pulley and can then be attached to the load at any reasonable angle. This all works very well and has made the job a lot easier and safer, though the auto-shutoff can't work (I think I can work out a separate trigger for that). The operation requires two people - one to steady the bins and one to operate the control. It does not seem possible to obtain wireless remote control units for these kind of hoists (more common with 12v winches). But then I had a wheeze... REMOTE CONTROL I was keen to have remote control for my application but worried it might damage the electronics. Then I realised that the cutoff switches simply cut the power, so why not do the same? I bought a wireless remote socket controller and am using that. I have to lock down the switch in the up or down position and did that by drilling a hole in each side of the switch shield and then I push a small screwdriver through to lock the switch. This is not recommended of course and will invalidate the warranty. But it means I can go to the bottom of my flight of steps with my remote controller and guide my load up single handed, switching on and off as needed. Perfect for me!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi, does this have an auto shut off when all the way wound in? Also would there be anyway of this being fixed to a beam about 20cm wide 15cm thick?**
A: The machine shuts off when the cable is fully wound and also when fully extended. This applies whether single or double cable used. The fixing brackets are held on by machine screws and can therefore be placed over any beam within their capacity but the unit itself is quite heavy and with the addition of a lifted weight the loading on a support such as you mention would be worrying, certainly if the beam was wood. A better solution would be to span two beams with a support through the brackets - but even then the beam should be as deep as possible (to the capacity of the brackets) and as short as possible between supports to reduce deflection. You could always try your set-up on a couple of piles of bricks at low level first.

**Q: Can this be mounted upside down if the cable is still taught and snag free?**
A: Hi it will not work upside down because of saftey overrun device.

**Q: in the fully raised position, what is the distance from the mounted face of the unit to the hook (as i have a cramped lifting area)**
A: I'm not sure but the red disc you can see in the shot triggers the auto stop so probably about one foot

**Q: What is the measurement from the base mounting plate to the eye of the hook, when fully retracted please?**
A: Hi, I have not fully unwound the cable but would guess at least 20 feet. We have it mounted on the wall at around 10 feet off the floor to stand our trailer on its end.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small but capable
*by L***L on 18 November 2023*

Needed one fast after previous one failed express delivery next day before lunch which enable the job to continue . Scaffolding bracket slightly too small to fit UK tube needed a bit of modification and the speed is slower than previous model . Cable bunches up sometime but not a issue if your use to it jumping . The power plug has an adaptor for UK plug which works . Think it's 230v so it will be running over with UK 240v if it fluctuates . The power lead is a 1 ft long needs to be longer . Ok for the money
