After a long day on the water, no one wants to deal with a faulty hand crank on their boat trailer. CURT's hand winch is here to make your life easier.

This winch has a capacity of 1400 lbs and a 4.2:1 gear ratio. It comes with a 20' winch strap and a zinc - plated snap hook. It can be mounted on various trailers, especially boat trailers, and is also useful for other winch applications (not for vehicle towing). Features include a crank - style design, compatibility with specific CURT winch straps, a locking lever for safety, solid gears for strength, a broached pinion shaft, a 7.5' handle with a plastic grip cover, and slotted screw holes on the base for flexible mounting. Specifications include a clear zinc finish, a 3/4 in. hub diameter, and a limited lifetime warranty (one - year finish, one - year parts).

Using your CURT hand winch is easy. First, make sure it's securely mounted on your trailer using the slotted screw holes on the base. Attach the 20' winch strap to the item you want to pull, using the zinc - plated snap hook. Then, turn the 7.5' handle with the plastic grip cover. The locking lever can be used to keep the winch in place when needed. Remember, this winch is not for vehicle towing. For maintenance, keep it clean and dry. Check the gears and the pinion shaft regularly for any signs of wear. If the finish starts to show signs of damage, you can take advantage of the one - year finish warranty. For parts, if anything breaks down, the one - year parts warranty has you covered. With proper use and maintenance, your CURT winch will serve you well for a long time.
