7. Hook onto the object using a pulling point, tow strap, tree strap, or chain.
⚠
WARNING
Leave at least five full turns of rope on the drum.
Do not wrap the rope around the object and hook onto the rope itself. This can damage the object
being pulled, and kink or fray the rope.
8. The attachment point must be centered in loop of hook and the hook’s safety clasp must be fully
closed. (See image below.)
9. Do not use a recovery strap while winching. They are designed to stretch and can suddenly whip
back towards the operator during operation.
10. Place a heavy rag or carpet (sold separately) over the rope span, 6 feet from the hook, to help
absorb the force released if the rope breaks.
