1.Automatic braking mechanism
This takes the form of a friction pad clutch. When the winch winds cable in (raises tower/pole), a conventional ratchet is used. When it winds rope out (lowers tower/pole), the primary shaft (the one the handle is attached to) opens itself up (unscrews) and traps a fibre disc (friction pad). The greater the load, the harder the friction pad is gripped. If the handle is released, the load will stay static - the only way to lower the load is to wind against the friction pad.
2. Double ratchet spring clip
On winches where there is a ratchet, this is operated under the tension of a spring (the ratchet is pushed into the gear cog by the load of the spring). If the spring should fail, the ratchet will not engage into the cog and the winch load will freefall. A modification was made to put a second back-up spring on the winch.
3.Winch drum gear guard
A guard is fitted as standard. This stops the possibility of anything getting trapped in the gears of the winch during the winding operation such as loose clothing, etc. and also stops the possibility of the drum gears getting damaged (chipped) if the winch is dropped for any reason.
4. Large diameter drum core
Reduced flattening and kinking of winch cable, extending the usable life of the cable.
5. Gearing ratio
The gearing ratio used on all Fulton winches stops the winch from being overloaded by the manual winding of the winch
