Petrol winches

I see you are using only about 4 wraps on the capstan instead of 8 for a 10mm rope, I find 8 wraps is too many a lot of the time, it looks like you've also add a piece of wire to the rope guide, the Red Iron now comes with a rope guide spring now which can be added to the earlier model if required. Why did Husquarna stop making those combi cans ...

Well spotted. They now add that wire loop to the VF105 but if you mangle it by bringing the choker right on to the winch it ends up like a bit of bent wire! Ask me how I know. Without it you develop riding turns which are very bad.
