direction to the “Disengaged” position. 

The rope is now free to be unwound

Anchor Point

Winch Operation

When choosing an anchor point, select a firm point such as a tree, stump or 

rocks. DO NOT WRAP THE ROPE AROUND THE ANCHOR POINT AND BACK ONTO 

ITSELF. Always use a tree trunk protector strap to prevent ring barking the tree and 

damage to the rope. If using a winch to retrieve another stranded vehicle, the 

rescue vehicle is considered the anchor point and should be made secure. The 

anchor point must be strong enough to hold the gross weight of the vehicle and 

be positioned to keep the fleet angle between the centre of the anchor point and 

the wire rope maintained at less than 15°. 

Before winching, ensure the rope is 

wound on the drum evenly. If unevenly 

wound, there is a possibility of damaging 

the rope when under load. Visually 

check rope for any signs of damage.

Lay a recovery damper or heavy 

blanket over the rope in the middle 

third of its length. If a rope failure 

occurs, the damper can prevent the 

rope from whipping.

Use a shackle to lock both ends of the 

tree trunk protector and then attach to 

the hook.

The recovery vehicle’s engine should be 

running to provide maximum power to 

the winch. The transmission should be set 

in neutral and the hand brake applied to 

prevent the vehicle from moving. 

1) Check the rope

3) Use a Recovery Damper 

 2) Attach shackle and hook  

4) Prepare Vehicle
