Worm Gear Winch 1500 lb Capacity

I am using this to hoist a hay bale elevator into the rafters of my barn. Half the elevator is resting on a beam and the other end is supported by a cable than runs to 2 pulleys and then to this worm drive crank. It is slow with the gear ratio (by design), but it holds strong when you stop cranking under a load. Very happy.
