We got everything ready at about 11:30 and headed up the mountain to skid some longs. After trying the winch out for the 1st time, it wouldn't pull. I had to run back to the garage to grab some tools to adjust the clutch a bit. Turns out I adjusted it a little too tight. The cable wouldn't pull out very easy. After I backed off the clutch a little, it works great.
I did have one problem though. I was making a pull with a lot of resistance, and the engine bogged down far enough that it started running backwards. I was a little worried at first. I shut it down immediately because of the sound the engine was making and my dad yelled over "it's running backwards, just start it back up, it will be fine".
So I run it with a little bit of throttle now so it doesn't happen again.
