Joe, where did you order your Fulton K2550 from and is it a K2550 0101 or K2550
0301 model? I have a K1051/KX1051 on my HCX555 and am considering a different
winch for raising to make it easier.
The winch I really would like to replace is on the raising fixture. I have not
used it yet to raise the tower from horizontal, but I can imagine what it will
be like when I get a beam and a few verticals up on it.
