Install the vise chains properly.
Follow the vise chain tightening instructions care-
fully. Improperly tightened chains can allow the
puller to slide or break loose and strike nearby
personnel.
Do not allow the vise chains to bind at the corners
when mounting the puller to a square or rectangu-
lar support. The vise chain must be uniformly tight
at all points.
Failure to observe this warning could result in severe
injury or death.

3. On each vise chain unit:
a. Rotate the vise chain handle counterclockwise
to expose most of the threads. Leave only three
or four threads engaged in the handle.
b. Insert the chain into the slot in the frame. Wrap
the chain around the conduit, pipe sheave
adapter, or structural element.
c. Set the positioner against the positioning
blocks that protrude from the frame.
d. Pull the vise chain tight and insert the chain
pins into the chain pockets, or recesses.
e. Turn the handle clockwise to slightly tighten the
chain.

4. Rotate the vise chain handles, by hand, clockwise
to tighten the chain. Do not use tools, extensions or
“cheaters.”
5. Put the sheave back onto the frame. Install the pin
and hitch pin clip.
Note: If the 18" sheave interferes with existing
structures, install a 12" sheave (Greenlee 00843).
