Always exercise extreme caution during any recovery operation. Check and double check all of your recovery gear before each use and again after use, to look for any damage to your Kinetic Recovery Ropes. It is extremely important to never use a damaged rope! Once your gear is inspected, read on for information on how to properly connect the Recovery Rope to your intended recovery points and attempt a safe and successful recovery.
To begin, wear winching or mechanic gloves to protect your hands and always use the correct sized kinetic recovery rope for the job. Then, prepare for recovery by hooking your kinetic tow rope to low points on the vehicle in need of recovery and the vehicle doing the recovering. Always begin attempting recovery with a kinetic rope by pulling the rope snug. This is referred to as a static pull. Slowly accelerate to see if the stuck vehicle will start moving. If that doesn’t get the job done, try backing toward the stuck vehicle by 3-4 feet and slowly drive forward at no more than 10 mph with a running start, until your vehicle begins to slow, letting tension in the rope draw tight. Next, let off the gas, hold the brakes, and let the built-up kinetic energy transfer to the disabled vehicle to see if it moves. If the stuck vehicle still isn't budging, try backing up a little closer still, and again attempt recovery beginning with a slow running start. Be sure never to attempt a recovery with the rope at an angle to avoid injury and possibly tipping over the stuck vehicle. If this fails, you may need to try recovering with a second vehicle by pulling in tandem with a larger rope.
BullDog offers a limited one year warranty against defects in materials or workmanship on their kinetic recovery ropes. Please contact us to request additional information!
