unchocks
Removes wheel blocks
Unchocks means to remove chocks—the wedges or blocks placed against wheels to prevent rolling.
The term appears most often in aviation and maritime contexts: The ground crew unchocked the aircraft before taxiing.
To unchock is to release something held in place, allowing it to move.
