12 Volt winch

[Oracle2024]

I have obtained a 12 Volt winch out of a Motobility van which was used to winch up a ramp a wheelchair including a patient. Its a compact unit and only has two wires coming from it Red and Black if i couple it to a battery it works and if i reverse the wires it works in reverse.
What I need is some information and hopefully part numbers and a wiring plan
I want to mount the winch on a wall and use it to pull a wheeled motorcycle up a ramp onto my Bike lift.
I have a big 12 V battery of 100amp spare to use. I want to also have a cable remote that is sprung loaded to off position so that i can control the movement backwards or forwards while holding my bike upright up the ramp stopping when i let go of the switch.
A wheelchair and a person cant be more weight than a bike going up a 6" ramp I need this to save my back due to old age.
Can I ask how to do this? The plate on the winch says fit a 25 Amp fuse to the battery live wire.

these work - the 25amp goes between the feed and the battery and just needs to be an inline fuse eg https://www.amazon.co.uk/RKURCK-Inl...ix=inline+fuse+25amp+12v,aps,122&sr=8-10&th=1


You do not need a spring toggel as the buttons only operate when pushed, push forward to let out , reverse to winch in.

thanks for that does it need a solanoid of some description?

I bought a 240v one secondhand for £50. They can be bought new for just over double that and it’s all complete with the controller etc.

An electric hoist.

Just got to work out how to rig it up in my loft so that I can lift and lower heavy/awkward items through my new loft hatch.
