Farmi w60

[dougtrr2]

Don't forget to include a self releasing snatch block. In my hilly tight forest it is a lifesaver.

If you have occasion to completely spool out all the cable, grab a can of bright spray paint. I painted a portion of my cable to let me know when I was getting to the end. I left 10' unpainted, and then painted about 10. When I see the painted cable I know I better be close, and when the unpainted part shows up after that I better be choking up a log.

Got the Wallenstein FX 140 ordered, with the self releasing snatchblock and A chainsaw scabbard. Since they have to order from the factory I asked for A green winch.
That sounds like A good idea painting the cable.

I have that same winch. I bet that farmi is stouter than the FX140 because that W60 has a bigger sprocket on the winch. That farmi is high though. Can tell you all about the FX140.
