Warning Tow release
Date
22.05.2013
Subject
Tow release
Do not use shackles to connect winch tow lines. The DHV-Winch towing department reminds all pilots to only use compatible rings or connecting elements between winch tow ropes and releases. The use of shackles may result in tangles with other components on release and prevent the pilot from separating from the winch rope. Horst Barthelmes
