In today's heat, I've just had to give up trying to pull this boat out
of the front hedge using a rope tied to a tree and the Rolson 4-ton
puller.

Basically, I couldn't get the cable to unwind to a starting length. I've
used it once before and think you have to flip a small spring across to
release the ratchet and then either take off another small brake or pull
the main lever across to do the same thing. All this seems to work OK,
but the cable won't move.

I wonder if anyone here can suggest anything before I take it to bits
and lose all the pin****its?

On my equally cheapo puller there is a spring loaded "pawl"
underneath that you have to depress & keep depressed whilst
unreeling the cable.

Also the cable can get pretty wedged on from the last time it's
used before storing, so I've had to attach it to something
solid & after doing all the release manoeuvres, heave back on it
to get things moving..
