Winch Accessories

The following accessories are necessary to attach the
winch to anchors, change direction of pull, and for safe
winching.

Gloves:

Wire rope, through

use, will develop

ЉbarbsЉ

which can slice skin. It is ex-
tremely important to wear
protective gloves while oper-
ating the winch or handling
the wire rope. Avoid loose fit-
ting clothes or anything that
could become entangled in
the wire rope and other mov-
ing parts.

Snatch/Block Pulley:

Used

properly, the multi-purpose
snatch block allows you to (1)
increase the winch’s pulling
power; and (2) change your
pulling

direction

without

damaging the wire rope.
Proper use of the snatch block
is covered in

ЉBefore You

Pull.
