I have a wall mounted Tennamast Adapt-a-mast,  the luffing winch has always 
been a bit dodgy to use as it is at an awkward angle and is unbraked, now the 
question is could I replace it with a braked winch, the tower starts from 
vertical so no load on the winch but as soon as it starts luffing then there is 
weight, would a braked winch be safe in this circumstance or should I stay with 
the unbraked variety.
