CS100PS Worm Gear Webbing Hand Winch 170kg

In order for the self-sustaining brake function to work a minimum of between 7% to 10% of the overall load that the winch can take needs to be applied to webbing strapping, this allows the brake to engage when you take your hand of the winch crank handle (so the load is held in either travel direction). So between 12 to 17kgs of load applied to the webbing allows the self sustaining brake to work. Until the winch system (Winch and Rope) is installed with a load applied the braking function on the CS100 will not work.

The CS100 has self-sustaining worm gearing, when you stop cranking the winch handle the winch holds the load. The winch has to be working at a minimum of approx. 7 to 10% of the maximum working load for the self-sustainingh braking to operate as mentioned (so between 12 to 17kgs of load applied to the webbing). Until the winch system (Winch, Rope + Pulley if needed) is installed the braking function will not work. In additon the winch does not have a free wheel function.
