After a full day on the water, you and your crew are tired. It doesn't matter if you were swimming off the back of the pontoon boat, racing around the lake in your speed boat or just casting a line off the side of your fishing boat -- when you get to shore, the last thing you want to deal with is a faulty hand crank on your boat trailer. You want a winch that makes your job easy and that lets you get out of the marina and back home sooner. CURT hand winches are constructed from cold-forged steel to provide structurally superior pinions and eliminate gear-to-shaft bonding failures. They are designed to be mounted on a variety of trailers and are especially useful for boat trailers. CURT boat winches can also serve a number other winch applications, though they are not designed for vehicle towing. This CURT hand winch or boat winch features a capacity of 900 lbs. with a gear ratio of 3.25:1. It has a hub diameter of 3/4" and a handle length of 6-1/2". It also comes with a 15' winch strap and zinc-plated snap hook.

Call 888-634-9494The Curt 29433 hand winch has a maximum load capacity of 900 lbs. Never exceed this capacity. The winch is not designed for lifting equipment or humans.
The Curt 29433 includes a winch strap. The Curt 29423 model does not include a strap. Both models include a handle with a provided lock nut for securing to the input shaft.
The Curt 29433 has a gear ratio of 3.25:1 and a handle length of 6 1/2".
Yes, the hand winch can be used to load a boat onto a trailer, but only with proper precautions. When loading a boat onto a trailer without keel or side hull rollers, the trailer must be submerged in water when the boat is loaded by the winch. Attempting to drag the boat onto the trailer while on land can cause winch failure and possibly personal injury and property damage.
To secure the winch to the mounting location, you will need three grade 5, 3/8" diameter bolts, three lock washers, six flat washers, and three nuts. The handle must be secured to the input shaft with the provided lock nut before operation. If using the strap (included with model 29433), you will need the provided strap bolt and nut to secure the strap through its sewn loop.
The manual does not address battery disconnection or vehicle-specific preparation steps. Consult the winch mounting location documentation or contact Curt Manufacturing at 1.877.287.8634 for vehicle-specific installation requirements.
1. Insert the steel cable through the square hole from the inside to the outside. 2. Insert the cable through the second hole from the outside to the inside. 3. Insert the cable through the square hole from the inside to the outside again. 4. Pull the cable tight. 5. Wrap the cable onto the drum.
To secure the winch strap, place the provided strap bolt through the sewn loop in the winch strap and secure it with the strap bolt nut. The installed winch strap should be rated at 1.5 times the winch's rated capacity (1,350 lbs for the 900 lb winch). The hook on the strap should be rated at 1.5 times the strap's rated capacity.
Place a lock washer, then a flat washer on each of the three grade 5, 3/8" bolts. Place each bolt through a mounting hole on the winch. Add one more flat washer to each bolt and secure with a nut. Ensure the winch base is properly bolted to a structure or vehicle that can hold both the winch and the winch load. Failure to properly bolt down the winch can result in personal injury and/or property damage.
Prior to operating the winch, secure the handle to the input shaft with the provided lock nut. Verify the handle is properly secured to the winch input shaft before use.
Wear impact safety glasses and heavy duty work gloves. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that can be caught in moving parts. Wear protective hair covering to prevent long hair from becoming caught. If wearing a long sleeve shirt, roll the sleeves up to the elbows. Stand back and stay out of the direct line that the winch cable is pulling—if the cable slips or breaks, it will whiplash along this line. Do not overreach the winch. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Keep the work area clean and dry. Keep children away from the work area.
Always leave at least five wraps of cable or belt on the drum. Failure to do so may break the cable connection to the drum and could result in serious injury. Additionally, the cable under a load should only be wound onto the drum so that a minimum space of two times the cable diameter remains on the drum flange to avoid sideways cable slip and winch overloading.
No. Do not use any attachments to extend the length of the winch cable.
After moving an object with the winch, secure the object. Do not rely on the winch to hold an object for an extended period of time.
No. Do not apply a load to the winch when the winch cable is fully extended. The cable anchor on the winch is not capable of holding the maximum rated load capacity.
No. Never use a hand winch for lifting equipment or humans.
Before operating the winch, verify the winch is properly secured to the winch mount and the winch handle is properly secured to the winch input shaft. Check for damaged parts and any other conditions that may affect operation of the winch. Carefully check that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Replace or repair damaged or worn parts immediately. Check the rope, cable, or strap before each use for signs of wear. If rope, cable, or strap show signs of wear, replace immediately.

No. Never use a hand winch for lifting equipment or humans.
If you do not hear a loud clicking noise when winding the strap in, the ratchet is not securing the load. Do not let go of the handle until the load has been secured. Check that the ratchet lever is properly engaged in the pinion gear. If the problem persists, do not operate the winch and contact Curt Manufacturing at 1.877.287.8634.
You may have released the handle before engaging the ratchet lever. Never let go of the handle prior to engaging the ratchet lever as this may cause the handle to spin dangerously. To let strap out: firmly hold the winch handle, release the ratchet lever (the handle may need to be rotated slightly to move it), carefully rotate the handle to let line out, and do not let go of the handle until the ratchet lever has been properly engaged and is supporting the load.
