[TowerTalk] TX-472 motor

[Rick Karlquist]

How many foot pounds of torque does the winch take when
cranking by hand?  My Milwaukee drill can do over 50 foot pounds
(as measured by a torque wrench).  The DeWalt looks good on
paper (although it is 7 amps not 9 amps) and you would think
it would be as good as my Milwaukee.  50 foot pounds is a VERY
hard to turn hand winch.
