• Never lift or pull over or around a sharp obstacle.
• Never completely unwind wire rope from a
winch while loaded. Always be sure that a
minimum of five (5) wraps of wire rope are on
the drum at all times.
• Never tie down the front end of your wrecker
for recovery work of heavy lifts. You will
likely damage the truck frame if you do.
• Never allow the wire rope to cross wrap
(criss-cross) on the winch drum. Crushing
of the wire rope can cause wire rope failure.
• Never make a lift or pull with the wire rope
attached to light gauge or sheet metal parts;
use the frame or major structural members.
• Don’t disengage the winch drum clutch while
the wire rope is loaded.
