During the winching operation the cable is under great strain. If the cable fails or there is a sudden release at the anchor point due to improper rigging or whatever, both cable and hook are coming back toward the winch at a very high rate of speed. This can be fatal if the operator is in the line of fire. With the Winch Saver on the cable about 3/4 of the way to the hook during a failure such as this the Winch Saver will suppress the backlash greatly due to the high impact absorption factor of the material that it is made from, thus dropping the winch line and hook to the ground before reaching the operator or the vehicle."</FONT></DIV>
