A manual swivel winch includes safe loading mechanism. The winch has a pair of spaced side plates, a rotating drum supported between the side plates, a drum gear coaxially mounted with the rotating drum, a pinion drive gear engaging and rotating the drum gear, and a lever supported by at least one side plate for rotating the pinion drive gear. The lever includes a selectable lever gearing assembly. The lever is selected to be operated in an initial tensioning mode for rotating the pinion drive gear, and in a final tensioning mode wherein the lever utilizes the lever gearing assembly to provide a mechanical advantage over the initial tensioning mode.

What is claimed is: 1. A manual marine winch comprising: a pair of spaced side plates; a rotating drum supported between the side plates; a drum gear coaxially mounted with the rotating drum; a pinion drive gear engaging and rotating the drum gear; a lever supported by at least one side plate for rotating the pinion drive gear, the lever including a lever gearing assembly, wherein the lever is selected to be operated in an initial tensioning mode for rotating the pinion drive gear, and in a final tensioning mode wherein the lever utilizes the lever gearing assembly to provide a mechanical advantage over the initial tensioning mode, wherein the lever bypasses the lever gearing in the initial tensioning mode. 2. The manual marine winch of claim 1 further including a hand wheel for rotating the pinion gear. 3. The manual marine winch of claim 2 further including a spur gear coaxially mounted with the pinion and rotated by the lever. 4. The manual marine winch of claim 1 wherein the lever gearing assembly includes a ratchet gear and a co-axially mounted spur gear. 5. The manual marine winch of claim 4 further including a spur gear coaxially mounted with the pinion and rotated by the lever and meshing with the spur gear of the lever gearing assembly. 6. The manual marine winch of claim 5 wherein the lever includes a lever body pivoted into direct engagement with the spur coaxilly mounted with the drive pinion. 7. The manual marine winch of claim 6 further including a spring plate for selectively engaging the lever gearing assembly. 8. A compound loading lever for a manual marine swivel winch having a drum gear driven by a drive pinion, the lever including a lever gearing assembly, wherein the lever is selected to be operated in an initial tensioning mode for rotating the pinion drive gear, and in a final tensioning mode wherein the lever utilizes the lever gearing assembly to provide a mechanical advantage over the initial tensioning mode, wherein the lever bypasses the lever gearing assembly in the initial tensioning mode. 9. The lever of claim 8 wherein the winch includes a hand wheel for rotating the pinion gear, wherein the lever is mounted coaxially with the hand wheel. 10. The lever of claim 9 further including a spur gear coaxially mounted with the pinion and rotated by the lever. 11. A compound loading lever for a manual marine swivel winch having a drum gear driven by a drive pinion, the lever including a lever gearing assembly, wherein the lever is selected to be operated in an initial tensioning mode for rotating the pinion drive gear, and in a final tensioning mode wherein the lever utilizes the lever gearing assembly to provide a mechanical advantage over the initial tensioning mode, wherein the lever gearing assembly includes a ratchet gear and a co-axially mounted spur gear. 12. The lever of claim 11 further including a spur gear coaxially mounted with the pinion and rotated by the lever and meshing with the spur gear of the lever gearing assembly. 13. The lever of claim 12 wherein the lever includes a lever body pivoted into direct engagement with the spur co-axially mounted with the drive pinion. 14. The lever of claim 13 further including a spring plate for selectively engaging the lever gearing assembly.
