Scotch Hawser Length

[Phil Waterman]

Hi Guys

Don't know about FAT but on the C60L overall length of the cable chain needed is different depending if you are putting scotch under the front or rear wheels. This is because of the hook placement.

I've used my winch quite a lot, the winch is very powerful and in general you either need to use the scotches or chain the truck to a good size tree. The winch will drag the truck with all four wheels locked. Normal wheel blocks do very little.

With scotches under the wheels using the hold cables you can still drag the truck until the scotches dig in, then the winch is very impressive.

We are in the midst of a blizzard today, but I'll measure my cable and chain length, this week will also post some photos of the difference. Also post some videos of winch in use.

Cheers Phil
