Cable winch Topex 3.5 t — manual/hand-operated load puller, 3.5 tonne capacity

Manual cable winch Topex 3.5 t is a hand-operated load puller designed for controlled pulling and tensioning of loads up to 3.5 tonnes. The compact mechanical unit uses a steel cable and a ratchet-style gearbox to provide mechanical advantage for vehicle recovery, moving heavy objects, anchoring and general pulling tasks on construction sites or farms. The portable design allows mounting to fixed anchor points and operation by a single person using the hand lever and built-in braking mechanism to hold loads securely.

Advantages

The Topex 3.5 t cable winch offers a robust steel cable and a mechanically simple, serviceable gearbox that ensures consistent pulling force without electrical power. Its compact size and relatively low weight make it suitable for on-site transport and storage. The straightforward hand-operated lever and integrated load-holding brake improve control during tensioning and lowering operations. Designed for durability, the winch withstands outdoor use and common working conditions when maintained according to basic care guidelines.

Suitable for

• Vehicle recovery and repositioning
• Dragging or tensioning heavy materials on construction sites
• Farm and agricultural pulling tasks
• Anchoring, rigging and securing loads
• General maintenance and workshop pulling operations

Key specifications

• Rated pulling capacity: 3.5 tonnes
• Operation: manual hand lever / ratchet mechanism
• Cable type: steel wire rope suitable for load tensioning
• Brake: integrated mechanical load-holding brake
• Mounting: compatible with fixed anchor points and rigging hardware
• Design: compact, portable mechanical winch for field use

How to use

Select a suitable anchor point capable of withstanding the rated load and attach the winch securely using correct rigging hardware. Unwind the steel cable and route it to the load, making sure the cable is free of kinks or damage. Operate the hand lever in steady strokes to take up slack and apply tension; use the ratchet and brake to hold the load between pulls. For lowering or controlled release, follow the winch’s specific brake release procedure to avoid sudden descent. Inspect the cable and gearbox before and after each use and keep hands clear of moving parts during operation.

Usage recommendations

Always verify anchor points and rigging hardware exceed the required safety margin for the intended load, wear appropriate gloves when handling steel cable, and follow local safety regulations for manual winch operation. Do not exceed the rated 3.5 tonne capacity and avoid side-loading or shock loads that can damage the winch or cable.
