Does anyone have or know about these? I am looking at a EGV40A. This will pull 8815 lbs. I like that they have a drum brake instead of a ratchet. This meets a safety code over seas that we don't have.

I believe the last issue of Sawmill and Woodlot did a review on them.
Here is a little info. I first saw this winch at the Northeast Forest Product and Equipment Expo in Springfield MA last spring. Price seemed better than others and brake seemed safer and more user friendly. I sent a message to main distributor on ID and they tell me there is a dealer in Conway, MA OESCO, Inc. that stocks these winches so I will be talking to them soon. ;D ;D This is a web site that has some specs on these winches.

Last week I added a "winches" category to my sawyers' web page. You will find quite a variety of winch links listed. Has anyone ever gotten a price on that self-contained, gas-powered (50cc) capstain winch?
The Tajfun web page is listed there.
Also, I found a program which identifies broken links and I got rid of 44 bad links. Some good ones have disappeared. :(
