Load Rating
Load and speed varies according to how much wire/synthetic rope is on the drum. The first layer of rope
on the drum delivers the slowest speed and the maximum load. A full drum delivers the maximum speed
and the minimum load. For this reason, all utility duty winches are rated at their first layer capacities.
