16000 WIND ATTACHMENT OPERATOR’S MANUAL SET-UP AND INSTALLATION
4
Anchoring Wire Rope to Wedge Socket
See Figure 4-31 for following procedure.
1. Assemble wire rope and wedge to socket so live end of
wire rope is in a straight line with socket pin hole.
Do not
assemble WRONG as shown.
2. Allow dead end of wire rope to extend past end of socket
amount shown.
3. Allow wire rope to assume its natural lay.
4. Pull against wedge and live end of wire rope enough to
tighten wedge in socket.
Use a brass hammer to seat wedge and wire rope as
deep into socket as possible.
5. Attach a wire rope clip to dead end of wire rope using
one of the RIGHT methods shown. Rope clip will aid in
preventing wire rope from being pulled out of socket.
NOTE: Use Right Method A only if wire rope clip is small
enough to be securely tightened to dead end. Right
Method C is only for a Terminator socket and
wedge.
6. After socket is pinned in place, hoist load slowly so
wedge seats tight.
Do not shock load socket and wedge .
Anchoring Wire Rope to Button Socket
See Figure 4-32 for following procedure.
1. Remove pin from socket.
2. Install button end of load line in socket.
3. Pin socket to anchor point.
4. Securely tighten locking screw.
Breaking in Wire Rope
After installing a new wire rope, break it in by operating it
several times under light load and at reduced speed. This
practice allows the wire rope to form its natural lay and the
strands to seat properly.
NOTE: Wire rope will stretch during the break-in period,
reducing the wire rope’s diameter as the strands
compact around the core.
The dead wraps of wire rope on the drum can become slack
during operation, even if the utmost care is used during
installation of the wire rope. This slackening is caused by the
normal stretch that occurs in a new wire rope under tension
and periodically throughout the wire rope’s life from release
of the load.
WARNING
Falling Load Hazard!
• Inspect all parts prior to use. Do not use parts that are
cracked or otherwise defective.
• Remove minor nicks, burrs, or rough edges from
socket, wedge, or pin by lightly grinding. Do not
reduce original dimensions by more than 10%.
• Do not reinstall shipping material (bolt, plastic strap or
wire) in hole of wedge or socket after assembling.
Discard these materials because they can prevent
wedge from tightening in socket.
• Only use a wedge and socket which are correct size
for wire rope being used. Do not mix and match parts
from one assembly with parts from another assembly.
Terminator™ socket and wedge has “go” and “no-go”
holes to check for proper rope size.
• Attach wire rope clip to dead end of wire rope after
assembling wire rope to wedge and socket.
• If dead end of wire rope is welded, seize end of wire
rope and cut off weld before assembling to wedge
and socket. Weld will not allow strands of wire rope to
adjust around bend of wedge, resulting in high
strands and wavy rope. This condition can seriously
weaken attachment.
WARNING
Falling Load Hazard!
Wire rope can break if following precaution is not
observed:
• Do not attach dead end of wire rope to live end of wire
rope with wire rope clip. Wire rope clip will transfer
load from live side of wire rope to dead end, seriously
weakening attachment.
