Can the Dutton Lainson 2-Speed Hand Winch # DL15440 Free Wheel
Updated 03/10/2015 | Published 03/09/2015
Question:
Maybe I am overlooking on the spec page, but am unable to determine if this winch has free pay out of the cable. Can I like kick the winch out of gear and just pull the cable out by hand to the object I wish to move or do I have to unwind the cable with the crank handle to get the cable to reach the object to be pulled.

The Dutton Lainson 2-Speed Hand Winch # DL15440 that you referenced is a 2 speed jack that if you push up on the ratchet lever it will allow it to free wheel. Check out the 2:45 mark of the video I attached to see how this is done.
