OPERATING INSTRUcTIONS
Rigging the Hoist for Single or Double Line Pull
1. Single Line – Only the fixed end hook should be attached to the load.
WARNING: Do NOT attach floating hook to a load for a single line pull.
WARNING: Never rig web strap in a choke position by attaching the two hooks to each other.
WARNING: Ensure sling or other device is properly seated in the bowl of the hook, and the
hook latch is securely closed before pulling. Do not use the hook latch to support
any part of the load.
2. Double Line – Fixed end hook should be attached to the eye on the puller body. Floating hook should be
attached to the load.
Pulling Out the Web Strap
1. To release tension on the web strap, shift ratchet switch toward the "D" on the handle.
2. Use handle to ratchet the web strap forward or off the drum.
3. For faster payout, switch the ratchet to neutral or the "N" position, disengage the pawl from the brake wheel with
one hand, and pull the web strap with the other hand.
cAUTION: When in use, leave no less than two wraps of the web strap on the drum while pulling.
cAUTION: When web strap is fully paid out, do NOT attempt to further unwind the strap. This could
result in damage to the web strap and/or brake mechanism.
Adding Tension on the Web Strap With a Load Attached:
1. Move ratchet to up or the "U" position.
2. Use the handle to ratchet the web strap upwards, or towards the "U". Continue to ratchet up until there is no longer
any slack in the strap.
Releasing Tension on the Web Strap With a Load Attached:
1. Switch the ratchet to the down or "D" position.
2. Ratchet down until you feel the tension brake release (typically after one full ratchet).
3. Once the tension brake is released, continue to ratchet down until you can safely unhook the load.
cAUTION: Do NOT unhook the load or otherwise release tension while the ratchet switch is in the up or
"U" position. Doing so will cause the brake mechanism to lock. (If locked, put tension back on
the web strap. Switch the ratchet to the down or "D" position and ratchet down to release the
tension brake).
Rewinding the Web Strap
1. To rewind the web strap, shift ratchet switch toward the "U" on the handle.
2. Use handle to ratchet the web strap back onto the drum.
3. For faster return, shift ratchet switch to neutral or the "N" position, and manually rotate the drum knob in the
direction of the "U" or up position.
WARNING: Do NOT attempt to manually unwind the drum if a load is attached.
cAUTION: Ensure the take-up of the web strap onto the drum is always in the up direction,
or towards the "U".
