Where the load is to be 

 carried in one direction 

 only, as in an end hoist 

 barn, the Single Drum 

 Power Hoist is used. This 

 hoist has one large drum 

 for elevating the load and 

 carrying it into the mow, 

 and a smaller drum for re- 

 turning the empty carrier. 

 It is equipped with adjust- 

 able friction clutch and 

 band brake. 



One of the most valuable 

 features of the Single Drum 

 Hoist is the fact that it may 

 be controlled from the load 

 by means of ropes. There 

 are only two ropes to handle 

 — one to elevate the load 

 and run it back into the 

 mow, and one to operate 

 the return drum and bring 

 the empty carrier back to 

 the wagon. 



There is iiO time lost, no 

 waiting, no changing of 

 team from wagon to draft 

 rope. All that is necessary 

 is to set the fork in the 

 load, or if slings are used, 

 to attach the sling pulleys, 

 then pull slightly on the 

 main friction rope and the 

 load goes up and into the 

 mow. When the load is 

 tripped, a slight pull on the 

 return rope will bring the 

 carrier back.
