Original Equipment Manufacturing
Controls — Wired
Wired controls ship as standard equipment on a wide range of OEM builds. Pendant controls from 2 to 6 buttons scale with the function count of the equipment — a simple dump body gets a 2-button, a multi-function service body gets a 6-button. The toggle switch remote serves OEMs building equipment where the operator needs more distance from the control point. For manufacturers, wired controls offer lower cost per unit, zero pairing or programming during production, and predictable reliability across the fleet.

Controls — Wireless
OEMs offering wireless control as a standard feature or factory option use Pierce Arrow and Lodar systems across their product lines. The range from 2 to 20 functions covers everything from a basic dump trailer to a complex utility or service truck with multiple hydraulic circuits. For OEMs, pre-integrated wireless systems reduce assembly time compared to field retrofits and ensure the wireless system is tested and validated before the equipment ships.

Dump Bed Kits
Dump bed kits are integrated by upfitters and OEMs building custom work trucks. The three tiers of flat bed kits — light, medium, and heavy duty — let a manufacturer or upfitter match the kit to the chassis class and intended payload of the final build. The factory bed dump kit serves OEMs and upfitters converting standard pickup trucks into dump-capable work vehicles for fleets that need the OEM bed’s enclosed sides and lower profile.
Hydraulic Power Units
OEMs integrate hydraulic power units into their equipment builds at the factory level. The full Bucher lineup — from simple power up / gravity down units to 6-way valve pumps — gives manufacturers the flexibility to spec the right power unit for each application. A dump body manufacturer might standardize on the gravity down unit, while a crane or utility body builder needs the multi-circuit capability of the 4-way or 6-way. Consistent quality and supply from a single HPU line simplifies procurement and warranty management across production runs.

Industrial Winches
Industrial winches are spec’d into OEM equipment builds for material handling, loading, and positioning applications. Multiple drum configurations — standard and 11-inch — let the manufacturer match the winch to the mounting space and cable capacity requirements of their specific equipment design. Electric and hydraulic options mean the OEM can match the winch power source to whatever the host equipment already runs.

Recovery Winches
Recovery winch integration is a core part of tow truck, carrier, and utility body manufacturing. OEMs install these winches during the build process, matching winch capacity to the GVWR and intended use of the final vehicle. The motor assemblies for the PS6000 and PS15000/PS20000 series support both new builds and the OEM’s aftermarket parts channel, giving their dealers a factory-authorized replacement path.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can't find the answer you're looking for? Contact our team and we'll get back to you.
What precautions should I take when pulling heavy loads?
Place a heavy blanket, jacket, or winch dampener over the wire rope during heavy pulls. If the rope snaps, the cloth can help absorb energy and reduce dangerous backlash. Ensure the item is thick, secure, and placed midway along the taut rope. This simple step protects you and others nearby during tasks like vehicle recovery or heavy towing.
How can I provide a safe anchor point while winching?
Use a D-ring or bow shackle rated for your winch’s pulling capacity with a tree trunk protector or similar anchor strap. Select a sturdy anchor like a healthy tree or vehicle tow point. Wrap the protector around the anchor, attach the shackle, and connect the winch cable. Ensure all gear is rated for the load and check connections before winching. This prevents equipment failure or injury during tasks like vehicle recovery.
How can I double my winch pulling capacity?
You can double your winch’s pulling capacity by using a snatch block, which is a pulley system that redirects the winch cable. Here’s how it works: Attach the snatch block to the load or a secure anchor point, then run the winch cable through the pulley and back to a fixed point, like the tow hook on your vehicle. This setup effectively halves the load on the winch by distributing it across two cable lines, allowing it to pull twice as much weight.
How much pulling power do I need from my winch?
Choose a winch with a pulling capacity at least 1.5 times your vehicle’s gross weight to handle obstacles like mud, snow, sand, water, or steep hills. For example, a 6,000-pound vehicle needs a winch rated for at least 9,000 pounds. This ensures enough power for safe recovery in tough conditions without overloading the winch.
How do I secure a load with my winch?
Use ratchet straps or tie-downs to secure a load safely. Winches are not suitable for tying down loads, as constant movement or vibration can damage their gears. Choose high-quality ratchet straps rated for the load’s weight and attach them to secure anchor points on your vehicle or trailer. Check straps for wear and ensure they’re tight to prevent shifting during transport.
What maintenance is required on my winch?
Regular maintenance extends your winch’s life. Lubricate all grease points, tighten bolts, and inspect electrical connections, especially at the battery, for corrosion or loose fittings. Check the wire rope for wear, flat spots, or broken strands; replace if damaged. Refer to your winch manual for specific checks. Routine care prevents breakdowns and ensures safe operation during tasks like vehicle recovery.
How do I re-spool the wire rope onto my winch?
Always wear leather gloves when re-spooling wire rope to protect your hands. Never use bare hands, as the rope can cause cuts or burns. Keep a slight load on the rope to spool it evenly. Guide the rope with one gloved hand while using the remote control in the other to operate the winch. This ensures safe, tight spooling for effective winching.
What should I do about my vehicles wheels while winching?
Place wheel chocks or sturdy blocks under your vehicle’s wheels before winching. This prevents the vehicle from rolling forward or backward, keeping it stable and safe during the pull. Use solid materials like wood, rubber chocks, or stones, and position them snugly against the tires. This is especially important on slopes or loose terrain during tasks like vehicle recovery.
Can I use a fuse to protect my winch and vehicle?
Yes, a fuse or circuit breaker is highly recommended to protect your winch and vehicle from electrical damage. A 400-amp circuit breaker is ideal, as it handles amperage spikes during winching and resets easily, unlike costly 400-amp fuses. Alternatively, a cut-off switch is a budget-friendly option to disconnect power during a short circuit, though it won’t prevent spikes. Always use properly rated devices for safety.
Can I increase the line speed of my worm gear winch?
Yes, but it reduces pulling power by about 50%. For electric winches, swapping gears can boost line speed up to 50%. For hydraulic winches, replacing the motor with one of different displacement can increase speed. Consult your winch manual or a professional for proper modifications to ensure safe operation and avoid damage during tasks like vehicle recovery.
What maintenance is recommended for these Hydraulic Power Units?
Every 2-3 months, check electrical connections for corrosion and tightness from unit to battery. Check the fluid condition and level. Inspect the breather/filler cap as well for missing foam or dirt. Every year we recommend changing out your hydraulic fluid.
What fluid is recommended in this Hydraulic Power Unit?
We recommend ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid) for almost every case. In very low temperatures (Below -20°F / -30°C) the ATF will thicken. In this cold weather, ensure the reservoir is filled to the recommended level and consider preheating the fluid or using a reservoir heater.
Can I use this hydraulic power unit to run my hydraulic winch?
Short answer: No. Long answer: Yes, but it will be a slow, sad, and disappointing experience. While the operating pressure is often correct, the 1.5 gpm (gallons per minute) vs the 15 gpm of a clutch or PTO pump is going to be a tenth of the performance you'd want at best.
