Off-road driving is a very exciting adventure, but sometimes your vehicle might get stuck on sand, mud or any other obstacles. If you have a winch installed on your vehicle, you’ll be able to get your vehicle unstuck.
If you’re new to winching or have little experience of winching, then this guide is for you.

Put on gloves. Never try to handle a winch rope without gloves.

2. Plug the remote control into the winch. Don’t let remote the cord dangle in front of the winch. Run the cable through to the driver’s seat to operate it from inside your vehicle. When the remote is not in use, disconnect it.

3. Find an anchor point that is in front of your vehicle. This must be powerful enough to hold while winching. You can use a boulder, large tree, stumps, rocks or other vehicles. It will be best if the anchor point is directly in front of your vehicle. Never anchor your winch to any weak or small object.

4. Release the winch cable. Do it by deploying the disengage lever.

5. Pull the winch cable to anchor point. Don’t pull so much that it becomes slack. If it fails to reach the anchor, then look for another one that’s closer to your vehicle.

6. Wrap a tree trunk protector around the lower part of the anchor point. Most winches come with tree-trunk protector. But if you didn’t get it with your winch, you can get one from any local market or order online. They are inexpensive.

7. Insert the winch hook to the Tree saver. You’ll find the winch hook at the end of the winch cable.

8. Lock the clutch. This will prevent the extra cable from coming out of the winch.

9. Use the remote control to slowly pull the winch cable taut. Start pulling the cable back into the winch by pressing the button on the remote. Continue it until you experience some tension.

Part 2: Pulling Your Vehicle Out

1. Clear the area. Tell everyone to stay back as far as possible to avoid any accidents. Before you start pulling, double-check to ensure that no one is standing near your vehicle.

2. Enter the vehicle and sit in the driver’s seat. Hold the remote control in your hand. Stay in the vehicle the whole time of winching.

3. Use the remote control and Winch the vehicle slowly. Don’t try to pull quickly. Pull slowly and steadily. Continue pulling until your vehicle is unstuck and on stable ground. To avoid overheating the motor, don’t pull for a longer time. While winching, press the gas pedal to help move the vehicle forwards.

4. Stop winching when your vehicle reaches the stable ground. When you reach the stable ground, your vehicle will be flat and you won’t need the winch to drive forward. Switch off the winch remote control and press the gas pedal to check if you’re able to drive forward without the winch.
