Optional Equipment ● Fairlead to handle frequent side pulls from all angles. Hardened vertical and horizontal rollers reduce cable wear. ● Arch works like a raised fairlead to lift loads off ground for efficient skidding. ● Choice of standard gear ratio for fast operation in logging, or slow speed gear ratio for fine speed con- trol in pipelaying and power line sagging applications. ● Electronic control for precise speed control. Two families of winches – Power Take-Off (PTO) driven or Hydraulically driven winches covering D3 through D10 tractors, pipelayers and track loaders, the most comprehen- sive winch in the industry. ● PTO winches able to utilize full range of engine power. Brute force and fast line speeds. ● Hydraulic winches provide fingertip precision control over line speed. Motor only turns on demand equal- ing less wear and maintenance.

Allied Features: ● Proven performance on Caterpillar. Allied winches trace their roots to Hyster winches on Cat tractors since 1929. Allied acquired Hyster winches in 1990, main- taining the same engineering excellence. Existing dealer parts inventory continues to be interchangeable to support the thousands of Allied/Hyster winches in the field. ● “Plug and Play” design. Winches come complete with all the necessary parts for simple and easy field instal- lation on any tractor. They do not require Winch Ready packages pre-ordered on the tractors. This simplifies dealer inventory planning. ● Self-Contained Hydraulics (SCH) design. All hoses, pump and valve are inside the PTO winch frame, totally eliminating external leakage. Standard Equipment ● Freespool function for W3C, H4A, W5C, H5C, W6F, W6G and H6H winches. Adjustable freespool drag to allow cable to be pulled out easily by hand. ● Heavy duty box-section winch frame withstands demanding side pulls without the need for fairlead. ● Brake off function for most winches. Keeps cable tight while the tractor drives away to prevent cable bird nesting. ● Multiple-disc oil clutches and brake on PTO winches are oil-cooled for long life. ● Drawbar for most winches. Provides an additional hitch for load towing. ● Power line-in and power line-out.
