The Big Haul is an economical manual winch suitable for 4WD use. It comes complete with 20 metres (66 feet) of steel rope cable on a reeler and should be used with a pulley block at all times. It complies with the relevant Australian standard.
Spare shear pins are included in the unit’s handle and the heavy duty construction makes it very popular with four wheel drivers, farmers and commercial users.
As with all recovery gear, we recommend all 4WD owners be trained in the safe use of such items as Big Haul manual winches.

BENEFITS OF MANUAL WINCHES:
- Manual Winches are thought of by four wheel drivers as a necessity where electric winches are somewhat of a ‘luxury’.
- Manual Winches such as the Big Haul, Beaver Tuff Pull etc are a very important item of recovery equipment.
- They should be used with a pulley block. This halves the physical effort and doubles the pulling (winching) load.
- They come with 2 levers which are operated by a telescopic handle. One moves the cable one way, and the other the reverse.
- 20 metres of steel cable on a reeler is the winch ‘rope’.
- Shear pins are fitted to the units should overloading occur.
- The units can pull a 4WD vehicle out of mud, sand, holes, etc.
- A 4WD can be winched forward, backwards, sideways or even back onto their wheels using a manual winch.
- Manual winches also feature a neutral function to allow the cable to be pulled through the machine quickly.
- They feature a pin or hook on the fixed end to which a tree trunk protector or winch strap is attached
