Failure to carry out any of the above could result in unsatisfactory and unsafe rope
performance.
Coils
Place the coil on the ground and roll it out straight ensuring that it does
not become contaminated with dust/grit, moisture or any other harmful
material.
If the coil is too large to physically handle it may be placed on a ‘swift’
turntable and the outside end of the rope pulled out allowing the coil to
rotate.
Never pull a rope away from a stationary coil as
this will induce turn into the rope and kinks will
form. These will adversely affect rope
performance.
Reels
Pass a shaft through the reel and place the reel in a suitably anchored stand which allows it to rotate
and be braked to avoid overrun during installation. Where multi-layer coiling is involved it may be
necessary for the reel to be placed in equipment which has the capability of providing a back tension in
the rope as it is being transferred from reel to drum. This is to ensure that the underlying (and
subsequent) laps are wound tightly on the drum.
Position the reel and stand such that the fleet angle during
installation is limited to 1.5 degrees.
If a loop forms in the rope ensure that it does not tighten
to form a kink.
Ensure that the reel stand is mounted so as not to create a
reverse bend during reeving (i.e. for a winch drum with an overlap
rope, take the rope off the top of the reel).
Ensure that any equipment or machinery to be roped is correctly and safely positioned and isolated
from normal usage before installation commences. Refer to the OEM’s instruction manual and the
relevant ‘Code of Practice’.
When releasing the outboard end of the rope from a reel or coil, ensure that this is done in a controlled manner.
On release of the bindings and servings used for packaging, the rope will want to straighten itself from its
previously bent position. Unless controlled, this could be a violent action. Stand clear.
Failure to control could result in injury.
Ensure that the as-manufactured condition of the rope is maintained during installation.
If installing the new rope with the aid of an old one, one method is to fit a rope sock (or stocking) to each of the
rope ends. Always ensure that the open end of the sock (or stocking) is securely attached to the rope by a
serving or alternatively by a clip (See Fig. 9). Connect the two ends via a length of fibre rope of adequate
A kink can severely affect the strength of a six
strand rope and can result in distortion of a
rotation- resistant or low rotation rope leading
to its immediate discard.
