Westech Rigging Supply Q&AAnswer

That is a little tough to answer, but think of it this way. The winch has a rating of 2500 lbs max pull. Since the winch doesn't know what it's lifting, you can pull or lift anything you want, but be sure to stay under the max rating at all times. Also be sure to read the user instructions, and take extra precautions when lifting objects overhead. There are many tower riggers that use capstan winches (whether this model or another) for raising tower sections and hauling gear up and down.
