Speaker 1: Today we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch, part number FW16000101. This Fulton F2 Winch is going to be a great addition to your trailer to replace your old winch. Now, with the enclosed aluminum casing and handle, it's going to make for a great upgrade from the traditional open style.This Fulton F2 Winch is a great addition to your trailer. As you can see, the overall design. It's not too big and bulky. The operation is very smooth, and it is built to last.
This is going to be a cast aluminum casing, so it's going to protect your gears on the inside, and it's going to offer you two drum gears and one solid drive gear. The drive gear is going to extend from one side of the casing to the other, and that's going to offer a solid connection point between both drum gears. This is going to make for a much smoother operation, and it's going to last a lot longer.So to operate it, you simply push or pull on the dower in position, rotate your handle and pull your item up onto the trailer. Now when you want to release your strut, you simply push on the handle, put your paw in the upright position, and you have the option to turn it to release it. Now, you do have another option that does offer free spool.
Keep in mind your handle does spin when you use that.Now your paw is going to come with a rubber coated end to give you a little added grip. This winch is going to offer a 1,600 pound max line pull. Keep in mind that is when the strap is fully extended with one layer of strap on the spool. I do want to mention like with any winch, as you are pulling that strap in and the spool is filling up, that weight capacity is gradually going to decrease.Now included with your winch, you will get the strap. It's 2 inches wide by 20 feet long and it's going to have an attached hook.
Now keep in mind if you are wanting to replace your strap, this winch will only accept a 2 inch up to 20 foot long strap which you can find here at etrailer.com.Now your strap's going to have a 2,600 pound working load limit. Keep in mind, you don't want to exceed the winch's load capacity. Now it's going to offer a nice wide, thick handle with tapered ends to help reduce the risk of your hand slipping off even if your hands are wet. The handle's going to be made out of a cast aluminum so it's going to reduce the risk of any corrosion. It's going to give you two mounting locations, so it's going to extend your handle from a six inch to a seven inch and can be mounted on either side of the winch.Now this is going to come with all necessary hardware to get installed.
Let's show you how to get that done. First thing we need to do to start our installation is you need to make sure you have your old winch removed. We're going to install the handle first. You're going to take your small bolt, a lock washer with the flat washer and we'll use a half inch wrench to tighten it down.Next, we're going to install our grip. You're going to take your long bolt that comes in your kit and put on a flat washer. You're going to see a metal sleeve, take your bolt, slide it into your metal sleeve, slide that metal sleeve into your handle and the handle or the grip through the handle itself and you're going to have a nut that's going to fit inside of the handle. We'll tighten that down with a 9/15th socket or wrench.Next thing we're going to do is install the strap. Now you'll notice this center piece here on one side, you can see it's pretty flat or evenly spaced. The other side is going to be tapered, tapered out. You're going to have a pin that comes in your kit. What you want to do is you want to feed your strap through the one side and you want it to come out the tapered end. What that's going to do is this is going to slide in your strap and it's going to fit right down into that slot, just like that.Next thing you want to do is you want to take your switch and your going to flip it down. You want to make sure that your strap is winding underneath. Next your going to have three carriage bolts with keepers on 'em and your going to slide 'em in. You're going to put two up on this long side and you're going to put one in back and you're just going to line 'em up with the holes on the trailer. Then we'll put our locking phalange nuts in place and you can tighten those down with a 9/16th socket. Once you have your hardware torqued down to the specifications on the instructions, you can hook up to your boat, whatever it is your pulling and hit the road.That'll do it for a look an installation on a Fulton F2 Fully Enclosed Trailer Winch, part number FW16000101.

The product arrived on time and was exactly the correct assembly. Installation was easy with the included instructions. 641376
The Fulton boat winch has been working great. The winch handle, with the options has been especially working out for me. And as always etrailer has provided exceptional service. 592597
I installed this winch on my 07 BoatMate trailer to upgrade to an easier and safer (non exposed gear teeth) unit. My trailer uses two mounting bolts that go through a section of square tubing and are inline with each other. It was a little tricky to get the lower bolt installed, but it worked out well. The mounting issue is why I’m giving it 4 stars. It’s easy to operate and pulls the strap in quickly. 574775
Great service, and fast. 564315

Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
After one season of use on this winch, I am still happy with it, and it has not had any problems. Our boat is heavy, and it helps a lot to have a low gear once the boat is most of the way out of the water. We use it in a saltwater environment, so hopefully it works well for years... we do rinse it out good after each use. 464848
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
This winch seems to work fine except for one MAJOR flaw: The strap won't easily pay out when you switch the mode to neutral. In HIGH gear, it requires a lot of force to pull the strap out (i.e. to get it hooked onto the boat when the boat is several feet away from the winch) as compared with other winches I have used. In LOW gear, I found it *impossible* to pull hard enough to pull the strap out. I will continue to use it, but I am pretty disappointed in this "feature". 565996
As of January 2013, Neutral option has been disengaged for safety reasons. In low speed the handle turns 16 times to 1 drum revolution.

Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
Now my wife can crank the boat on the trailer with this 2 speed drive. Good looking and good quality. Bolted right on the deck plate on the trailer. Removal of the black plastic cover frame is required to remove the strap before installation. Star screws are a good idea and the plastic cover only fits one way. I recommend this product. 284694
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
Mounted this on my 2009 Ranger Trail and it fit perfectly using the factory holes for the old winch. I have to deal with a very shallow ramp to access the Pamlico RIver where I live and the Fulton F2 pulls my 20 ft Z520 bass boat (a very heavy boat) onto the trailer with no problem. Etrailer provided fast delivery as well. I recommend this F2 winch and etrailer.com without reservation. 184954
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
I chose it as my previous winch broke as it was not powerful enough. It was a Fulton 1800T. It was fine if I could get the boat trailer deep enough in the water when backing down the ramp. It was always hard to winch my Four Winns 22ss the last foot on the carpet rails. This winch is much more powerful and does the job. It was easy to install as it fit into the existing holes made for the previous winch. I would recommend this winch. There is no neutral so watch the winch handle when letting out the strap. 100040
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
Upgraded my winch on my boat trailer, went with a heavier one than the one that came with trailer. Absolutely one of the best winches I’ve used. I ordered the winch late on a Saturday night and received it four days later on Wednesday, fantastic service, I’ll be glad to use etrailer again . 604841
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
Great winch. However, installation was a bit difficult as my previous winch had 2 bolts front to back. After a call to e-trailer, they confirmed that I could use 2 bolts. I then needed to change the nut and bolt adding a large washer to cover the large hole and a lock washer below. Getting the bolt and washer into the housing was the difficult part but I was eventually successful. Will be using the winch at the end of the month and can verify performance then. 190305
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
e-trailer got this to me in one day! Thank you! Excellent winch. I replaced an original Fulton winch on my 8 year old MC boat trailer. It was rated at 1300 lbs. and was adequate. When the pawl for the small gear broke, leaving it useless, it was time for new. I thought this 2 speed F2 would be overkill for my application, but I'm very glad I made this choice. I didn't realize how hard I was working with that old winch. This winch makes it almost effortless. It works smoothly, has a nice clean look, and has no traditional pawl to break. Of course we'll have to see how it holds up once THIS one is 8 years old. :) Note: The rating of 3200 lbs. is a bit misleading. The side of the housing is marked saying it's rated at 3200 lbs. first layer, and 1600 lbs. with a full drum. I guess that means the more you strap wind in, the less pulling it can handle. 44981

I received the winch a few days ago and havent mounted on to my lowboy as of yet. The winch itself has a sturdy ghousing and it looks like it is going to be easy to mount. E-Tralior has always shipped me great quality of items that I have ordered from thm. An Excellent company to be dealing with. I order all of my traiolor parts from e-trailor. Graet company excellent support if you have problems they will handle it for you. Thanks Larry 192385

I just finished installing the winch strap and crank handle. The winch works as advertised and appears to be a quality product. Look forward to many years of trouble free usage. 479928
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
Although I have not yet used the winch as of yet, just installed it yesterday, I like the look and construction of the product. The two speed option will be of use on the steeper ramps when pulling the boat up the last few feet to the bow stop when you really start to feel the weight of the boat. I had to move the mounting position of the unit due to the size of the winch body. I drilled two new holes to be able to mount it without interference. There was enough adjustment in the third hole so that I did not need to relocate. It matches nicely with the Fulton F2 tongue jack. E-trailer service and delivery were great. Great communication and shipped product quickly. I will definitely consider E trailer for my next trailer parts purchase. 47375

The boat winch is very well made. It will probably outlast the trailer i installed it on. 523169
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
This winch is a BEAST!!!! I could not have bought a better product for the application I was looking to use my winch for. I could not recommend a better product if your in the market for a boat winch. John W Grabowski 568659
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
Product appears to be great, but unfortunately I have to return it because the mounting hole pattern does not match my boat trailer. I will be ordering another Fulton product from etrailer.com. 200475
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
This is an excellent winch especially with the two speed gearing and the fact the winch is enclosed. It was relatively easy to install - the only modification I had to make was to drill an additional mounting hole at the front (toward the front of the trailer). Once that was done it took only a few minutes to finish the installation. Great product and a very fair price. 475343
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
Unfortunately, this unit does not fit my trailer. The mounting bolt pattern is only about 2 1/4" wide for the forward bolts, but my trailer requires about 2 3/4" wide. Unfortunately, the spec for the winch did not specify the bolt pattern, so I mistakenly assumed the hole patterns are pretty standard. I will need to return this unit. 409033
The industry standard mounting pattern is basically a triangle-shaped bolt pattern. The two bolts at the bottom are 2-1/4 inches apart on center. The top bolt is 4-1/2 inches from either bottom bolt on center.
-- Laura E - 07/25/2017Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
This is a great trailer winch. Well built and solid. You can tell as soon as you get it that is a quality winch. I mounted it on a trailer for a 24' Xcursion pontoon boat with a 150hp Evinrude ETEC. So it's probably weighing in at about 3500# to 3900# loaded and full fuel and oil. This thing seems like it could pull it right out of the slip and on to the trailer. I would and have recommended this winch to anyone that is looking for one. It completely blows the cheap stock ones out of the water! You won't go wrong buying this one! 285928
Review from a similar Fulton F2 Winch in Trailer Winch
Winch is for trailer for 5000 lb. boat and motor. Although spec'd to fit standard winch mounts, I had to drill 2 new holes in my mount, well know trailer maker. Winch appears to be built do the job. Pulled the boat one time, but time will tell. I asked for appropriate winch cover and ordered UF # 38-944020, which agrees with what I received. However dimensions are not as shown on the order. Ordered 12" x 14.5" and received 10.5" x 13.75". Does not fit nicely and not worth hassle of returning. Winch looks nice sitting on the trailer. 567983
