ensuring you will be well
clear of the winch.
Step Four:
Pull out Wire
Pull out enough winch line to
reach your anchor point while
keeping some tension on the
wire to ensure it does not get
tangled in itself.
Step Five:
Secure Winch Line to Anchor Point
Secure the winch line to the anchor point using one of the
options below. Never attach the winch hook back to the
cable after wrapping it around the anchor point. This will
cause damage to the line and can cause a serious safety
issue. When attaching to a tree, rock, buried tire or stump
always use a tree trunk protector or a choker chain (Choker
chain is never to be used on a live tree).
