operating on mud.
While it may seem tempting to try to drive your
way out of the mud or sand, excessive spinning of
your tires will most likely just dig you into a deeper
hole. Continuously revving the engine of a
thoroughly stuck vehicle/equipment may damage
tires, axles, transmissions, and drivelines, and in
most instances will only dig the vehicle/equipment
in deeper.
Once you start moving, keep the momentum going
until you are on more solid terrain.
If using any vehicle for recovery, the recovery
vehicle should have 4×4 traction.
Place the towing vehicle on solid ground.
Never use a chain if its hooks have been altered in any
way.
Tips for Recovering Vehicles or Equipment
Know How deep it’s Buried.
Know the Size of the Stuck equipment.
Ensure the Towing vehicle is large enough.
Make certain Your chains, cables, Straps, or Ropes
are Properly Rated.
Keep the Tailpipe Uncovered.
Dig around the Tires if necessary.
Keep a fire extinguisher Handy.
Unload to Reduce Weight When Warranted.
Consider disconnecting Trailers or implements.
Get the Towing vehicle as close as possible.
Position the Towing Unit on the Higher ground
When Possible.
Make Sure the Towing vehicle Has Better Traction.

Pull in a Straight line When Possible.
Try to Make only Two attachment Points.
Keep Sharp edges from Touching Towing devices.
Hook from the Bottom.
Place the clevis/shackles directly on the equipment.
Remove nonessential People from the danger Zone.
Use the lowest gear available.
Pull Straight ahead to Maximize Towing Power.
Apply Power Slowly and Smoothly.
