14. The use of snatch blocks and
multiple lines will allow you to
pull, stabilize the recovery
vehicle, and minimize deflection
of the wrecker boom.
15. Push the winch free-spool knobs
to the in position to re-engage
the winch. Slowly take up the
slack in the wire ropes. Inspect
the hook-up points for slippage
before continuing the lift or pull.
Manually control each winch to
ensure wire ropes are stressed
evenly. As the wire rope is
retrieved, be sure it doesn’t criss-
cross on the spool.
WARNING:
When swinging a load, watch out for centrifugal force. As you
swing a load this force will cause the load to swing away from the
machine and may cause instability.
DANGER:
Do not swing the wrecker boom without extending the outrigger/
stabilizers.
