General questions and answers about
winches
What safety equipment will I need?
A good pair of leather work gloves and some common sense is pretty much
all you
will need when working with a winch. You should never handle the cable
with bare hands since a frayed cable can cut skin to the bone. One of
the most
common winch accidents is having your fingers or hand caught in the
cable as the
last of it winds onto the drum. The best way to avoid this accident
happening is to
always use the remote control cable when winching, and stay far back
from the winch
cable when in movement.
