Logosol B751 Winch/Log Turner.

[trigger_andy]

So the winch finally arrived for my B751, which is not a Pro and as such the Winch is not designed for it. So I got a hefty discount as I’d need to modify the support to suit my Mill and of course void the warranty.

 

It arrived on Monday in a double Pallet from Sweden. Could not understand why they needed such a large crate but anyway, it was well packaged and the winch is bloody heavy.

 

Modifying the support to suit my mill was easier than expected. Grind off the support bracket welds and reposition to suit my Mill/Trailer. Then drill the Mill and Trailer and bolt up. Nice and simple.

 

The Winch has a clever feature that allows the upper part to swing back out of the way to allow the Sawhead to pass. There is two pin positions here. Fixed or swing. The rollers for the wire rope are single piece machined stainless and quite hefty.

 

Another nice feature of the winch is it can be used to turn heavy logs. So even if I don’t need to use the Winch to load logs it will still get used regularly on large hardwoods.

 

Overall very impressed with the quality of the Winch and the clever features Logosol have come up with for it.
