    Recovery Bible

    Good article, first time I have so many comparison to rigging loads for cranes ( being a crane operator and rigger,this is what I do all day everyday) and it is great to see a mention of angle factors and reeving in relation to recovery, it is so so so important and the difference between gear failing and not failing.

    Just a note:
    The following thread has the "Recovery Bible" in PDF format for downloading as wells a few other possibly useful reference bits.

    Recovery Bible in PDF and some other PDF references

    Should have put it here in the first place.

    Almost certainly a Towball recovery. Just a reminder people. Stay safe.

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    A good resource with lots of great reminders to keep in mind. Too many recovery operations that people rush into without thinking.

    This should not have happened. A Daughter A Sister, A Friend. A Young life Lost.

    Think about what you are doing. Always consider the worst case scenario and clear the safety zone.
