ARM*
*QUICK RELEASE AUTOMATIC ANTI ROLL-BACK MECHANISM
The Portable Winch Co. engineering team strikes again by designing this simple and ingenious device!
As soon as you pull the rope that goes through the ARM, the centrifugal clutch activates and the winch begins to pull. As soon as the rope is released, the drum stops rotating and the automatic mechanism does its job by holding the load in position! Disengage the rope in one simple movement! Nothing's easier.

Installation of the rope in the ARM mechanism
See how quick and easy it is to install the rope in the Quick release automatic anti roll-back mechanism.
Pulling a tree up a hill
See the winch pull a tree up a hill. The quick release automatic anti roll-back mechanism ensures that the load will stay in position even if the operator stops pulling.
Pulling a Side-by-Side stuck in dirt
Unfortunately, the winches installed on vehicles are located at the front, therefore, often inaccessible... Using a portable winch allows the vehicle to be exited by the same path as it entered, which makes the work a lot more simple and efficient.
Pulling a tree
See the winch use all its power to pull an entire tree. Using the pulley attached to the load doubles the pulling force!
Pulling a Side-by-Side up a hill
See how the quick release automatic anti roll-back mechanism is useful when pulling a load on a slope… In this case, it allows a vehicle to be hoisted up without the risk of suddenly going back down.
Directional felling
In potentially risky situations, the quick release automatic anti roll-back mechanism is very useful. Here, it makes it possible to apply tension on the tree to be felled and to hold it thus allowing the operator to proceed to the cutting of the tree. Then all he has to do is restart the engine to fell the tree. All in complete safety!
