With a maximum rated capacity of 4,000 pounds and a safe working load of 2,000 pounds, the TEKTON 2 Ton Dual Gear Power Puller uses a ratcheting gear pulley system to move heavy loads with one handed operation. It is ideal for use in construction, landscaping, and farm projects. 3/8 in. hooks have self-closing safety latches for sure connections. Strong 3/16 in. aircraft-grade braided steel cable has a maximum pull length of 7 ft. 3 in. Dual gears and locking pawls distribute pulling forces evenly. The high-leverage, 17 in. steel ratchet handle with cushioned nonslip grip is comfortable to operate. With secondary pawls released, pumping the handle offers safe and controlled, notch-at-a-time letdown of large loads.
