This high quality electric winch can start under load without burning out. It is equipped with a brake that prevents prevents unwinding when under strain. The automatic switch stops the winch when the winding rope has reached either the up or down position. This winch fits all WOPA crush models.
W bar
The heel W-Bar attachment can only be used with the spring-loaded back bar as it attaches to it. It secures the leg more firmly without restricting access to the hoof for the trimmer.
BACK bar
The Spring-loaded back bar swings down behind the cow and is secured into a locking catch on the side of the crush, thus replacing the back chain. As the back leg is raised, the bar is able to move upwards, maintaining constant pressure on the leg. This keeps the cow more comfortable and, therefore, more relaxed. It also eliminates over-tightening of the back leg.
made of heavy gauge steel and completely hot-dip galvanised
All Wopa crushes are fully hot-dip galvanised and made of heavy gauge steel to ensure a long lifespan, even when being used for large animals. The frame is specifically constructed to absorb animal movement. The use of individually bolted panels increases the flexibility of the framework, which is essential in avoiding the stress cracks which fully welded crushes suffer from.
Easy safe access
Dealing with animals is one of the main causes of injury in the rural sector. To increase safety, better access to the animal has been created by eliminating all unnecessary bars and pipe-work. Standing beside the cow, leaning into her creates the safest, and most comfortable, work environment. It saves your back and the cow is comfortable. The cow’s back leg is securely restrained with the leg strap, pulling it tight into the back chain.
Walk through headbail
The headbail has been constructed to eliminate injury to the cow and to prevent choking. The headbail is fully operated from the rear of the crush giving the operator full control as the cow enters and exits the crush making jobs like tagging cows and heifers a breeze.
Front foot support
The front foot support blocks are designed to provide maximum access to the front feet. The front feet are placed on the support blocks and securely fastened with a soft rope. These blocks can be easily removed and upgraded to the safety winch version if desired,(see details in this brochure).
stabilising bar
The stabilising bar ensures that the crush cannot tip sideways if you choose not to secure your crush to the ground. This is particularly useful when an unsettled cow is being treated.
back chain catch
All Wopa Cattle Crushes include specially designed back chain catch. This gives you the ability to exit a cow through the back, instead of through the head bail by being able to release the chain, even with pressure on it from the cow.
