RIGGING
1. Never handle the winch rope or rigging while anyone else is at the control
switch.
2. Run the winch intermittently to take up winch rope slack. When using a
pulley block, be sure the winch rope is running properly in all pulleys before
applying a load.
Take your time when rigging and include a reasonable
factor for safety. Improper rigging can result in damage
to vehicle and equipment. It can also cause injury.
Warning
!
Always operate winch with an unobstructed view of the
winching operation. Never obscure warning and
instruction labels.
Warning
!
Do not re-engage clutch while winch is running.
Warning
!
Always use the handsaver(see Fig. 15). Do
not hold the hook with your hand . This is
important not only when reeling winch rope in but also when
removing winch rope from the winch under power.
Warning

Use a nylon sling when attaching the winch rope to an
anchor point. Do not attach the hook back on to the winch
rope. Doing so can cause the winch rope to break.
Caution

3. Figure 16 illustrate the most commonly used rigging. A tree trunk protector
is used to protect the tree when it is used as an anchor, and the winch rope is
attached to use the tree trunk protector. The use of a chain or wire rope is not
recommended due to the damage it could cause to the tree.
4. Figure 11 illustrate a method of rigging used to obtain a mechanical
advantage . The use of a pulley block will almost double pulling line capacity.
