PistenBully 600 with winch.

4.5 tonnes of pure power!
No mountain too steep, no load too heavy.

Kässbohrer invented the winch machine and also displayed its innovative power in the subsequent years in the continual improvement of its winch technology. More power and increased service life for the gear wheels and shaft bearings speak in the new winch's favour. Kässbohrer has of course thought about the driver's safety too: sensors and acoustic signals warn of any coiling errors and show the remaining available rope length.

The winch gearbox has been completely redeveloped for the new 4.5-tonne winch. It is now designed to last for the whole life of the winch − the previously required inspection is no longer needed.
Moreover, the rope technology has been optimised, which in combination with the new winch means the rope lasts around 20 % longer than before.
The ease of inspection of the winch and the longer rope life reduce operating costs, increasing the costeffectiveness of the vehicles.

The winch control has also been completely reworked. The new technology supports precise and efficient working: frequent work positions are easy to find using the continuously variable potentiometer with raster function − for example when adjusting the winch rope pull.
