ountain riders, backwoods explorers, trap line operators, rescue squads, owners of remote cabins, and just about anyone who routinely rides in high snowfall areas will rejoice because getting big, heavy snowmobiles unstuck just got a whole lot easier with the new SnoWinch™ 1.5 from Warn Industries.
     Engineered specifically for snowmobile use, the industry’s first portable and powered snowmobile recovery system provides up to 1,500-pounds of single-line recovery muscle from its 0.4-horsepower 12-volt DC electric motor and three-stage planetary gear power train. It is suitable for use on sleds that are equipped with a 12 amp/hour or higher-capacity battery.
     The highly portable SnoWinch includes an integrated mounting plate with a handle and a synthetic Hawse fairlead. Quick-connect wiring provides easy access to the sled’s battery power, while a remote control unit with a 10-foot lead wire allows the operator to stand aside conveniently and safely while the winch provides the pulling power for sled recovery.
     For maximum versatility, the SnoWinch can be rigged at either end of a stuck sled using the ski spindles or rear bumper as anchor points, with the winch located off the vehicle. Two recovery straps, one 8-foot and one 25-foot length, are provided along with two D-shackles to complete connecting the winch to the sled.
     The centralized drum holds 40-feet of 5/32-inch diameter synthetic rope that is durable and easy to handle. A cam-activated freespooling clutch allows quick and easy rope deployment when needed, and a mechanical brake provides control.
     The 15-pound SnoWinch kit complete with related accessories is stored in a custom WARN bag that can be carried easily in the cargo rack of a mountain, crossover, utility, or touring sled. Or it can be packed in a tow-behind cargo sled.
     The revolutionary new WARN SnoWinch 1.5 has a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $489 including the winch and rope, two recovery straps, two D-shackles, 10-gauge battery connectors, remote control unit, and storage bag. It is covered by a one-year limited warranty.
