many things can impact the pulling capacity of the winch

With ATV Winch, many things can impact the pulling capacity of the winch. The slope of the ground, the amount of friction on the object being pulled, the use of a pulley block, and the number of layers of rope wrapped around the winch drum can affect the capacity. The wire rope can be shortened to improve the pulling capacity of the electric wire rope winch.
When using the winch for vehicle recovery, sometimes the wire rope will be stretched quite far. However, if the winching distance is not going to be great, a pulley block can be used to run the winch rope to an anchor point, such as a tree, and then back to an attachment point, such as a tow hook, on the stuck vehicle. The pulley block alone will virtually double the pulling capacity of the winch and because more of the rope is being used, the pulling capacity increases further.
