5.3.3 Synthetic Choker

frayed, has knots, cuts, or broken strands.
W095
Synthetic chokers are available as an accessory. These
chokers weigh less than a choker chain and are easier to
handle; however, they are more susceptible to abrasion. For
more information, contact an authorized dealer or Wallenstein
Equipment.
Before each use, check the condition of the synthetic choker for
visible damage. Replace if kinked, frayed, has knots, cuts, or any
broken strands. Failure to replace could result in breakage.
Points to remember:
•
A synthetic choker is very susceptible to damage from
rubbing against or sliding along rough ground or surfaces.
•
Synthetic choker strength can be reduced if subjected to
sudden jerking, or quick starts and stops. Avoid high shock
loads on the rope by starting slowly and smoothly.
Procedure
1.
Push the rod end of the synthetic choker under the log.
2.
Pull the ends together and push the rod end through the
opposite loop.
3.
Extend the rod end to the skidding plate.
