Basic to Advanced Winching and Recovery DVD

Made in USA! DVD- The winch is a useful off-road tool that can quickly become dangerous and potentially lethal to the operator and spectators. Proper use requires good working knowledge and, since winches are not used often, thorough training is a must to retain that knowledge. This new DVD covers safety related issues, basic operation, simple and complex riggings, stuck assessment, winch capability and minimizing environmental impact. The DVD provides broad working knowledge including the skill to assess each situation and the means to retain a working knowledge of winch use. If you have a winch on your vehicle or are considering installing one you need training to learn how to safely get the best from it. The DVD presents simulations of basic and complex stuck situations. The DVD is jam packed with 81 minutes of information. There are 15 chapters and 2 bonus chapters that cover the basic types of winches, winch components, winch kits, and winch operation. Safety is stressed at every point and is an underlying theme throughout the DVD. Rigging for some straight forward recovery operations using single line and double line pulls are detailed. The importance of pulleys is covered and fully explained - so you will know when you have the advantage of the increased strength of a pulley and when you are only using it for an angle change. Complex riggings are demonstrated such as - a reverse pull, or a two way pull using only one winch mounted on the front of the vehicle. A complex compound pull is demonstrated. Use of the Pull pal as an anchor point is featured. Stuck and load assessments are reviewed. The bonus section contains diagrams of typical winch riggings.
