Friction Hitch / Knots
The following instructions demonstrate the correct method of attaching the Winch-line to the main working line.
Never use alternative methods of attaching as this may result in serious injury or death.
The RCWINCH is supplied with a STEIN “COPIOUS” sewn eye friction cord. Attach the friction cord to the
working line using one of the approved friction knots as shown below. As the friction hitch / working line wears
extra wraps will be required to maintain grip. Extra wraps may also be necessary on narrow gauge working lines.
on Always test the friction hitch before each use.
WARNING: Always ensure the Fiction Hitch is operating correctly before use.
Extra wraps maybe required to increase the grip. Destroy and replace damaged or excessively worn friction hitches.
If you are unable to tie any of these friction knots you should seek professional training from a fully qualified and competent instructor.
