    <p>Think of the extra wraps as increasing the diameter of the drum.
      <br>
    </p>
    <p>Then think of the drum as a wrench handle. The longer the handle
      the more torque you can put on the bolt.</p>
    <p>Now think of it in reverse, the drum is the bolt and can only
      apply X amount of torque. If the drum is small it can put more
      force on the end of the wrench then if the wrench is long.</p>
    <p>Basically it is leverage from the point of view of the drum
      (center of rotation).</p>
    <p>However, as the cable increases the size of the drum and the rpm
      of the drum is constant, the line speed of the cable increase
      because it has to wrap more cable onto the drum with each
      rotation.</p>

                I don't know how many feet are on each wrap or how many
                wraps there are yet but my guess with an 80' plus cable
                the first wrap is probably un wrapped in less than 20'.
                Looping back 20' gains more in pulling power than is
                lost in the wraps on the winch.  On a straight pull back
                one could add an additional extension cable to keep the
                wraps on the winch but it is kind of a hassle to
                disconnect the extension rope and connect direct. Makes
                sense if one is pulling something out of a mess of in
                the distance but not sure if it makes much sense of the
                tractor can be backed up to the back of the 20' trailer.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
