MOST PULLING SITUATIONS PRESENT
POTENTIAL DANGERS!
DO NOT USE A 3-STRAND YELLOW POLYPROPYLENE
LINE!
●
POLYPROPYLENE AND POLYETHYLENE LINES ARE DANGEROUS FOR
PULLING DUE TO THEIR ELASTICITY AND THEIR LOW MELTING POINT.
●
MAKE SURE THAT THE LINE IS NOT DAMAGED AND OFFERS ADEQUATE
RESISTANCE FOR THE LOAD TO BE PULLED.
STRETCHING = DANGER!
●
STRETCHING THE LINE MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. BE CAREFUL WHEN
RELEASING THE TENSION IN THE LINE.
●
ALL LINES STRETCH: INCREASED LENGTH: THE MORE THE LINE IS PULLED, THE
MORE IT STRETCHES.
●
STRETCHING THE LINE MAY CAUSE THE LOAD TO MOVE IN AN UNEXPECTED
AND DANGEROUS MANNER.
●
STRETCHING THE LINE MAY CAUSE IT TO RELAX AND MOVE BACKWARDS
QUICKLY, PULLING YOUR HAND TOWARDS THE WINCH OR CAUSING
SEVERE BURNS. NEVER WIND THE LINE AROUND YOUR HAND.
ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES.
