Section I - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (cont'd)
Don't completely unwind all cable
from a winch while loaded. Keep
AT LEAST five wraps on the drum.
Don't rely on anti-theft steering
locks to secure the steering
wheel. Use a special steering
wheel clamping device. Rope is
commonly used to secure steering
wheels, but that is not as reliable
as devices designed for this
purpose.
SAFETY TIPS
Don't operate your wreckers
engine faster than recommended.
Excessive speeds can damage
PTO shafts, hydraulic pumps, and
winches.
Don't tow a vehicle that reduces
the weight on the front wheels of
your wrecker more than 40
percent.
