Hi Folks
I've over 30 years of experience using Scammells and Land Rovers for recovery and towing.
Always assume the others are idiots and make sure that you are in command and the casualty know it.
If in doubt, leave them there until they are ready to do it your way.
Remember, we are playing with our toys and our hobby. If they want a professional recovery, let them pay the bill!
Please remember, if the site is open to the public, the Road Traffic Act applies and this includes towing!
Time and patience are the best 2 tools in the recovery handbook.
REME have issued some excellent guides on recovery techniques and these can normally be sourced throught the ex-military manual sellers.
The WW2 era training films on Recovery are a very good start for the ehavier stuff and the principles work equally well for smaller equipment.
I trust this helps.
Kind regards
Brian Carter
