10. Manually, “free-spool” enough
wire rope to make the hook-up
being sure that a minimum of five
(5) wraps remains on the cable
drums.
WARNING:
Wear gloves to protect hands
from wire ropes.
CAUTION:
To avoid birdnesting and premature failure of the wire rope, always
keep tension on the wire rope when winding or unwinding.
11. Make the hook-up in such a way as to afford an even pull on both wire
ropes. Over stressing one wire rope can happen if care isn’t taken in
hook placement.
12. If a heavy lift or pull is to be made
additional cable lines may be
necessary.
Always use more
stabilizing lines than pull
lines. RIG FOR SAFETY.
13. DO NOT EXCEED THE
WORKING LIMIT OF THE WIRE
ROPE. When making a recovery
and pulling to the side, always
apply an equal or lesser load in
the opposite direction of the pull
to stabilize the load.
