To ensure the wire rope is always pulled in square to the winch, use the snatch block to change direction |
A set of three 'T stakes' set in line for winching on to; the secon and third stakes stop the first from pulling forward |
Having got yourself out of that predicament, remember to respool the wire rope onto the drum neatly, as the next winching might only be a short pull
