Do you have a question about this Electric Winch,Trailer Winch?
- Can You Power Out the Cable on Master Lock Electric Trailer Winch 2953AT
- You cannot power out the cable with a load on it. To release cable on this winch the clutch is disengaged and the spool spins freely. The winch will only turn the spool with power when pulling cable in.

- Can 12 Volt DC Trailer Hitch Wiring From a 7-Way RV Connector be Used to Power a Winch
- The wiring in your hitch is not rated for use with the Master Lock Electric Trailer Winch # 2953AT. The wiring could overheat and cause damage to the hitch wiring, the winch, or even your vehicle.
You will need to wire the winch separately. I recommend the Winch Trailer Wiring Kit # SW1520. The kit contains properly sized wiring and connectors to make use of the winch easy and removable.

- Comparing the Master Lock Trailer Winch # 2953AT with Superwinch # 1220210
- The rack and pinion for the Master Lock Electric Trailer Winch, # 2953AT, is in reference to the way that the winch brakes. It is a mechanical system that can support a load when stopped and the clutch is not engaged (which would allow the line to be pulled out).
