- Thread the rope around the drum, swivel end first. The rope should pass between the #3 and #4
bushings, beneath the drum and around the top. It should then pass between the #2 and #3
bushings, coming out of the tensioner, aligned with the centerline. (see fig. 3-C)
- Swing the faceplate into the closed position, ensuring that all four bushings engage the faceplate, and
tighten the large nut to secure the tensioner in the shut position.
- Check for proper engagement.
3. Attach one of the #7372R anchor straps to your first structural anchor point. Ensure that all four
of the #7401 O-rings are placed on the horizontal lifeline. Using a #8447 carabiner, fasten the
swivel end of the horizontal lifeline to the small D-ring on the anchor strap. Attach the second
anchor strap to the other structural anchor point. Attach your second #8447 carabiner to the ring
on the tensioner and fasten it to the small D-ring on your second anchor strap. The excess rope
should be hanging down from the tensioner.
40 inches above the working platform, or in a manner such that freefall will be limited to
six feet or less.
4. Pull the initial slack in the horizontal lifeline through the tensioner by hand and check to ensure
that the rope is seated in the groove on the outer edge of the drum. If the rope is trapped
between the cam and the side of the drum, release the cam by hand and pull on the rope until it
slips back into the center of the drum. It is not necessary for the rope to be taught once the
hand adjustment has been made.
5. Using an adjustable wrench, rotate the drum shaft on the backplate in a counter-clockwise
direction. Do not try to reverse the rotation, as the cam will lock up and resist any rotation in this
direction. The line requires approximately 450 lbs. of pre-tension to function properly. This is
achieved when the drum begins to slip around the rope.
