Skidding Winches

[Sawyer Rob]

Fransgard has really changed their design, mine doesn't look nothing like that, has no feet so I don't have to worry about it running away. How far back in the last century is that?

I bet they "hobble" them, when they take them off their tractor! lol

Not sure but early 80s maybee, the feet is a very good solution on a small tractor, it it had a blade I loose almost all ground clearance.

I have a Norse 350 -- new last fall. A god fit for my 40 HP CUT.

You have å hinged blade on yours

Hydraulic, a bit slower than pto operated but I am not in a race. I really enjoy the wireless remote being alone.

You might have the oldest working pto tractor winch. More ground clearance is always good, I have 16" and wouldn't want a inch less.

Awww jeez, mine's got feet too, and I never even considered it running away. Now I've got something else to worry about!

Should be all set if you have it well trained from being used often, but if you leave it in grown up field for too long, might run off then.

Mine old? This is old

An quite common older design

On this you see the very simple construction on the winch with the rubber wheel. Its a factory design.
