EDER - Powerwinch 500

The EDER Powerwinch 500 is the lightest and most agile power winch in the EDER range, perfect for arborists who demand high mobility and safety.

Weighing only 8 kg, the EDER Powerwinch 500 is easy to handle and transport. It is powered by a reliable Honda 4-stroke engine that can operate in any position, providing flexibility in rough terrain. The winch is designed for safe operation from a secure zone, where the operator controls the load by gently pulling the throttle rope.[3][5]
