I purchased an electric winch, US Tower MDP-750 from a guy who was close
enough to pick it up at his home. After getting it home and mulling over
the challenge ahead, I decided it would be too hard to integrate this winch
(which has a complicated pull up/pull down design) onto my crankup tower and
sold it. The winch is pretty large and heavy, 185 pounds according to the
US Tower catalog (and I believe it).
I am starting to work with the new buyer on shipping. And I need a starting
point. I would guess it needs to be strapped to a pallet. Any suggestion
on a shipper? Will FedEx ground handle something like this?
I am getting real tired of manually cranking the tower up and down but need
a simpler approach. Something like the MDP-75 is more in my thought
process.
