Default Tost internal Winch

Who out there uses the Tost winch for rewinding the rope into the tow plane?
What procedure do you use?
Do you stop at the end of the rope, then start up again when ready to
launch, or do you have a slow 'rolling' start. Do you have problems with
'jerking' the glider and overrunning the rope?
We need the weight of collctive experience--no 'armchair experts' please.

We use a PA-25-235 Pawnee, paved runway, shared with power and parachute
traffic.

Thanks
