Abstract
Disclosed is a winch control arrangement, including a retaining device for a cable, a rotatable drum having a rotational axis, and a substantially circular, centric storage part with a storage surface containing at least two windings of cable. The distance of the storage surface to the rotational axis is substantially constant. An eccentric holding part with a holding surface contains at least two cable windings. The distance of the holding surface to the rotational axis varies around the circumference of the holding part. A cable guide lies at a perpendicular distance from the rotational axis and the drum itself, and is movable substantially parallel to the rotational axis between a first position allowing cable winding on the centric storage part and a second position allowing cable winding on the eccentric part. The cable guide is connected to automatic movement unit for moving the cable guide between the two positions.
