CAUTION:
The recovery hook, when used, is under a lot of
force. Always pull the vehicle straight out. Never
pull on the hook at a sideways angle. The hook
could break off and you or others could be
injured from the chain or cable snapping back.
NOTICE:
Never use the recovery hook to tow the vehicle.
Your vehicle could be damaged and it would not
be covered by warranty.
