Both above comments are accurate and good advice in my experience. Wrap a choker around the base of a tree attach to a slider and use it as a snatch block. I would advise no more than about 60 degrees of angle as you risk putting a permanent kink or "curl" in the cable with anything more severe than that.

If you are lifting your tractor off a real wheel, you might want to cut that angle down! all that weight is on one lift arm, pushing up (ie compression). You can do a LOT of damage that way.
