hey everybody, my firend needs help. he was realing in his winch and reled it in to far. this is hard to explain so bear with me. any way. there is a little metal piece right below the clip on the winch that keeps the wire on the clip. he realed it in so that went past the frame and he can't pull it back out. how would we get it out? should he just cut the cablee and thread it back through?

thanks

 

anyhelp will be appriciated
