Lars 526 #1 Posted November 17, 2012 Well i have got an idea so i just had to test it out to see if it works.. I have installed an electric winch on my raider 10 to lift the snowblade/blower/deck and also the rear hitch.. i have put it where the battery is on it so i have to put the battery under the seat on it:) Here are some pict of it so far.. and a small vid of how it lift.. Thanks Lars 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lars 526 #4 Posted November 17, 2012 I bet you could tear the bell crank right out of the dash with that!!!!! yeah i think so too Kelly.. Im going to test it to see if it works good.. if it does im going to put on some safetyswitch on it so it cuts the power when it's liftet up to top Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

groundhog47 347 #9 Posted November 23, 2012 Lars, You do excellent work, oustanding idea as is the safety switch!! Neat control location also! Put you a roller/pulley underneath to mid hitch (loop over forward or backward whichever you extend out hook around roller)and have a self extractin' pull out device if you get stuck also.

Stigian 1,234 #11 Posted November 24, 2012 That's a neat idea Lars, a push button blade control is very cool Nice welding by the way. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

groundhog47 347 #13 Posted November 29, 2012 Hey, Lars, if you have another you are going to fabricate and need a 12v dc gear motor (off ambulance wheel chair lift) have two not using, may be slower lifting. Will check out and photograph tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KC9KAS 4,741 #17 Posted November 29, 2012 Don't knock yourself in the head with the implement lift handle while using the winch. I noticed it moving back and forth very quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anglo Traction 759 #18 Posted November 30, 2012 Excellent job Lars ! , Don't knock yourself in the head with the implement lift handle while using the winch. I noticed it moving back and forth very quickly. Good point....maybe fab up a Stubby Lever & Rock Shaft and remove the Lift Lever Ass'y ?, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
