Getting Unstuck in Louisiana-A Wire Rope Winch Rescue Story

Wondering if your job is "too out there" for our rigging products? Read on to see how we helped a South Louisiana customer! 

Mick contacted us for a creative solution to getting his lawn mower unstuck from his rain-saturated south Louisiana lawn. When his usual method- pulling it out with his truck- proved to only create further divots in the yard, the E-Rigging team determined that using a wire rope winch would be the answer. This way, his mower would be set free from the squelches of the mud without also damaging the equipment.

We thought of a couple different products like our cable puller and lever hoist, but that wouldn't work for Mick because he said the nearest tree or post is often far away. Then, our wire rope winch came to mind and we knew that would be the tool he needed to save his yard.
These are the items we suggested that Mick use to pull out his mower:
Stuck in the Mud
Our suggestions turned out to be exactly what he needed to get the job done. Our wire rope winch has a long reach and the take-up length is as long as the cable you have installed in it, allowing you to pull a load at a great distance, if need be. It also works great to pull equipment in one grab without re-rigging, making it a desirable tool for situations like this.
In the end, he was able to get unstuck without doing more damage to his yard.
Mission accomplished, Mick! Thanks for putting your trust in our team to help you get the job done!
