truck
I think it's a misspelling they mean truck or dolly (=carromato). Routledge technical gives these definitions:
CONST cart
INFORM&PD carriage
ING MECÁ truck (AmE), traveler (AmE), traveller (BrE), máquina herramienta carriage
MECÁ máquina herramienta slide, carriage
NUCL trolley
PROD carrier, elevación crab, jenny, puente grúa traveler (AmE), traveller (BrE)
TRANSP car (AmE), wagon (BrE)

The winch pulls the truck up by mean of the chains. They probably sometimes do refer to the whole set of equipment parts as such.
