Common questions about manuals, registration, and support for this brand.
You can register your winch online at the official Portable Winch website. Registration typically extends your warranty coverage by one additional year.
Portable Winch Co. recommends using double-braided polyester rope. This type of rope features low stretch and provides optimal friction against the capstan drum without melting.
The serial number is usually located on a metal plate attached to the frame of the winch, often near the engine or motor housing.
Gas-powered models are weather-resistant but should not be submerged. Battery-powered models like the PCW3000-Li have specific IP ratings; check your user manual for details on water resistance limits.
