I have the winch in the picture on my 110, its the hydrolic type. I found yesterday it works ok (powers in and out), but has no power. It will not pull the 110. I have not had time to have a good look at it yet, I will tomorrow.

But what are the things to look for?

I know the pto drive is working, but what else?

if its the hydolic version of the H12 ( i think) then the pump will have been de-tuned to apprx 1 ton if it was ex electricity board

unknownmanxman:
Hmmm. it could be that your pressure releif valve is set too low and is just releasing all the pressure as soon as tension comes on the wires....

ben_haynes:
have you dryed pulling it by raising the engine revs

i saw a Knob at towcester had one it had no power untill they raised the engine revs then it pulled so slowly but it worked

Sounds like it. But same as above, how do I adjust it?

It will pull ok with no load. I had it in 2nd (3 speed auto) with high revs and it would not move the 110.
