Performance Tool 50-100 Dual Gear Power Puller - 2 Ton Capacity Winch With 6' aircraft cable

Pros:● Rated at 2 tons, it does get the job done for medium duty lifting and pulling● Easy to use, to some degree. Connect each end/hooks to something and start pulling/cranking the handle, back and forth.Cons:● The cable, states 12 foot cable. When you consider that the cable loops back through the hook and pulley on one end and wraps around the crank in the main mechanism, you only have about five (5) feet of pulling distance.● There is no way to set this puller up to use just a single line of cable.● Not easy to release. You must put tension on the handle with one hand and flip the release lever with your other hand, without letting it jurk. Release tension or let out one crank of the handle. Then flip the locking lever back into place and repeat. This process might need two people to do it safely. One controlling the cranking handle and one person flipping the locking lever open and back to lock position.It did the job I bought it for and several other smaller jobs. So even with the cons, it was worth the money for me.

We used it to build fence. It takes a while to get use to how it functions. Difficult to operate at first but gets a little easier with use. Release mechanism is not built well, it’s sort of flimsy on how it operates

This looked well built and would do the job it was intended for but it was an overkill for my use. I sent it back but if I need something heavy duty I would have kept this one.

This is the 3rd try. Beats the other two as follows: 1. Functional storage case, 2. Easier to operate as on the other two it was impossible to unlock the mechanism that allows pulling out the cable.

Bueno

Release bent on first use , now has problems releasing. Wire short , not much use..wish I would’ve got something else. Was pulling a lightweight wire fence.

One of the things you do with a come-along is to move something heavy from point a to point b. If point a is pretty far from point b, it's good to have a longer cable than what they provided in this product. Note that the 6 ft cable on this come-along can only move the heavy object about 3 ft at a time. Then you've got to disconnect, extend, reconnect, and pull the heavy object again--another three feet. So if your distance from point a to point b is fairly long, it would be better to invest in a come-along with a longer cable.
