ya the coupler jaws are probly worn on an angle that and the fact he has said he lubed it all causes it to jump out of gear . we weld up the dogs (what we call them anyway) grind them square again and your good to go
nice i wondered, ( i got the deuce in 84 and i should say my dad was in the army so that helped with the learning)i used mine to winch out firewood 25 to 50 cords a year for 20 years , 3 cords a load 10 drags or so per load probly 1800 to 2000 times i pulled that damm cable out.. sometimes...
i guess i have a different manual (cable can be rewound on drum by controling from drivers compartment or directly at winch) i re read the whole thing couldnt find anything in mine about second soldier ,though he could be a handy guy to have around
well im sure his cable wasnt tight enough to stop him from engaging the winch from outside if i was dumm enough to try it im sure my winch would slide into full lock quite easly with a loose cable
actualy for winding up a cable with no weight on it or verry light it says in the manual to engage the winch from outside then watch it ,lining it up on the spool with a bar
