Be sure to stay clear of the winch when it is pulling the cable in.
Disregarding this could result in serious injury or death.
* NOTE - Be very careful when winching the logs. When winch is winding in make
sure that it is not being kinked or or wound in one position. While pulling be alert
not to tip machine over.
Be sure the rear dig legs are angled into the ground and that they have a good solid
spot to dig into. This unit can NOT be ran on a paved surface. The unit must be able
to dig into the soil to hold itself in place.
Make sure winch is oiled. Without oil it does not move freely and will rust up.
