Easy fix with the old flathead screwdriver. This is how we learn though eh. Keith's winch just did the same the other day. Mine did this quite sometime ago. Goodbye Freespool, now I just leave it locked.
Nice rescue mission boys! Can’t believe he went out alone and went that far out in those conditions! Whoa! Good to see the crew came out with. Excellent video buddy thanks for sharing!
Well must say he was stuck ! Lol i go out alone now then but is why having more than a winch is important . Powersaw axe hand saw all the above i carry lol . Cut bunch short logs & a long pole for lever could possiblely move it bit by bit to one side once lift and rotate the lever . You guys done a bang up job get him out hes lucky was cell service like him i'll prob go out alone again to lol . Cheers Happy New Years
OMG. I was just thinking can u imagine that happened to me and I had to walk out of the bush in the dark alone. Holy fuck man I’m getting the shivers just thinking bout it
I guess that's all it takes is that one time. lol. I think we have all done it at one time or another and that includes me also. Only difference is I don't go out alone for pleasure ride. I've done it for testing or adjusting clutches or shocks and always close to the truck.
Ohhh boy, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry at the beginning for poor John. For how much money Warn charges for those winches, they should never fail . . . What the hell were you thinkin' John? You musta' been on crack? - BAHAHAHA!!! . . . The Rescue Crew? What's Zepp gonna do, he has no winch! Or did he just come along for moral support? Or perhaps to supervise the mission and prepare lunch for you guys when you were done getting john's machine out? No wait, I hadn't got to the rescue yet. I understand now, he was there for comic relief! Atta'boy Zepp! LMAO! YEEEHAW! . . . Well that wasn't much of a dramatic rescue. You guys are pro's. The Discovery Channel's gonna sign you to a contract for the newest Auto-Rescue show call "Off Road Rescue 4not1". . . . That was fun! Excellent video Frank! Always a good time to have coffee after the job is done.
OMG Q! You never seem to have a lack of comments. lol..... Did you say Zepp comes to prepare our lunch..... YA OKAY..... More like comes to eat our lunch.... But in all fairness to him, in this video was the 1st time ever Zepp pulled me out. Or was it more like he was an anchor for me to tie on to. Hehehe... Don't cry for John, he deserved everything he got after I repeatedly told him not to ride alone. Maybe Zepp was right. Might be on crack. IDK...Just being stubborn. I'm grateful to Zepp and Danny they came out with us as you never know a bad situation can get worse. It was nice to have extra support. Thanks for watching Q and your always amazing, length comments. Happy New Year..
Don;t cry for John, He's going to be out there again the following weekend. (Same spot). All I know is John owes me a Nice Keg steak Dinner for getting me out of bed after only 2 hours of sleep. YeeeeeHaaaaw.
Haha.. Ya no doubt. You just don't know what to expect when you get a call that a machine is stuck out in the bush overnight. No one hurt so it was hard not to laugh.
The other day I went out alone on a 6 degree day and went on a Powerline trail and I fell into a 3 foot hole with icy water and mud. I somehow pushed the ATV out and got out of there😂
@@FrankiesChannel lol I’ve just started watching your channel and watched the whole series, Q put me on to it and I remember him always say .....time or kijij and calling his machine the lambo . Next time I’m out with Q I’m going to say Honda time see if he knows what I’m talking about lmao
@@SCOTIAN_ Oh I didn't know you ride with Q. Ya he loves the verbal abuse. it's almost like an addiction for him. I tell him every time I cut my lawn. I think about him. lol..
@@FrankiesChannel lmao 😂 . A lot of ppl tell him that. Just started with him last year. I’m SCOTIAN gets sacked where he does wheelies in the end on my unit and in the dam video on the silver can am
Hey Scotian, Don't need a winch, As long as the rest of the crew has one I'm good... BTW, Next time your with Q give him a smack on the back of his head and tell him its from me (Zepp). Thanks..
We switched all our machines with synthetic rope for that very reason. I'm still using the same rope that came with my 2009 Polaris. If I recall it's snapped twice on me in the last 10+ years and always right at the knot where it connects to the hook. Most like my fault for not doing a proper knot.
