Section I - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (cont'd)
Don't use a wrecker that has not
been properly maintained. Pay
special attention to wrecker
mounting bolts, cable condition,
and lubrication of moving parts.
Always use two safety chains
when towing all vehicles,
regardless of distance.
SAFETY TIPS
Don't use damaged cables on
your wrecker. Become familiar
with the various types of cable
damage and carefully inspect all
cables being used in a recovery
operation before starting to pull.
After rigging cables, don't begin
pulling without rechecking
connections. Make sure that all
cables and snatch blocks are
securely attached and cannot
accidentally pull loose.
