Who is the winch manufacturer? Have you gone to their site or Googled your particular setup? Can you post pictures of the complete unit? Hard to tell what you are working on with what you have provided.

Hello there :)
the capacitor on a single phase motor is used to start the rotation

does it have a arm which is actuated by a collar on the hoist cable

does it have a centrifugal switch, ie once rotation begins it opens and drops out the capacitor.
I hope this can help you .my crystal ball doesn't seem to be working bye bye. :)
