Scratch and Dent, 7.5 Ton.
Skid Steer Logging Winch

This thing can pull

I bought this item to clean up fallen timber on 50+ acres of land. I went with the heaviest and longest cable available. I like the fact that it will sit upright when disconnected from the skid steer for storage. I've already pulled half a dozen 30-40' logs out with it this winter. I like being able to stay on a maintained trail and bring the log to me where it is easier to work with. The only suggestions I have on how to improve this product would be to add some type of serrated edge on either side to make it easier to step on the winch to get into your cab. The cable needs to be watched closely when retrieving to keep it from stacking up on one side or another, which makes pulling it out by hand quite a chore. More than once I've had to hook it up to my gator or truck to get the cable pulled out to properly level-wind it back in. It is pretty heavy duty which is nice. When pulling hard, it will dig itself down further into the dirt to provide adequate anchoring for pulling. One thing that I will do is leave the last 10' or so of cable pulled out and wrapped around the guard to make pulling it out by hand easier on the next log. I couple the winch with a 25' choker for extra reach into the woods and less need to drive into heavy brush. I'm happy with the purchase, but I think the addition of some kind of serration/grip for footholds on either side when getting in/out of cab would make this safer to use, especially when things get slippery.

A part broke. A very easy to repair part that actually screws out. Manual clutch assembly. I was not able to get a replacement part because the product comes from overseas and they are not equipped to offer parts. This is an expensive piece of equipment. I was able to still use the equipment and have ordered a aftermarket piece from another company that I believe will work. Therefore am buying only made in America from now on. Titan is good company and customer service was good.

Very easy to use. Durable. Only recommendation would be to have about 10 to 15 feet less of cable. Unless you are perfectly lined up with what you are pulling, the cable can bunch up on one side or the other, making it hard to pull out the next time by hand.

Pulled like an Ox

This thing call pull trees, logs, equipment and boulders. Its true power comes as you place the teeth in the ground and give you compact loader added traction, add a snatch block and the pulling power doubles, an absolute beast at pulling.
