SETUP AND OPERATION
PULLING INSTRUCTIONS (OPERATION)
1. Place Front Roller Payoff (7) against edge of conduit or pull box
(Fig 10), the use of the removable Conduit Adaptor (8) (Fig 11) can
be used to lock in the puller around small size conduits, use of the
notch cut out on the Front Roller Payoff (7) bracket that will allow
user to lock in the Front Extension (6) against the edge of most
conduit or panel boxes. Start puller by pressing trigger on 18-Volt
drill. Drill motor will work in forward or reverse dependent on direc-
tion of wrap of rope on the Capstan (1). Start hand drill motor slowly
to take up any slack before pulling in high speed.
2. The Front Extension (6) can be lengthened by removing the front
pin and sliding out the extension. Reinstall pin to secure Front
Extension (6). This will lengthen the puller an additional 6" (Fig 12
and 13).
3. Use of HIGH-SPEED setting on hand drills can be used on pulls
where lower-tensions are anticipated. Longer higher-tension pulls
should use LOW- SPEED setting on hand drill to prevent the unwar-
ranted wear and tear on drill motor.
4. If rope slippage occurs on the Capstan (1), stop puller and add
additional wraps to the Capstan (1) to increase friction and decrease
slippage.
5. For long underground pulls, the addition of a cut and threaded
piece of ¾" rigid conduit can be threaded into the bottom of the
Gear Box (4) for added support (Fig 14).
6. Capstan (1) can be removed to help facilitate removal of
polyline/mule tape. With a firm grip on Capstan (1), pull away from
Gear Box (4). This feature can be used when Capstan (1) is full and
the removal and replacement of a second Capstan (1) can be start-
ed. With new Capstan (1) in hand align the index pin on Gear Box
Output shaft with notches on underside of Capstan (1) and press
Capstan (1) firmly towards Gear Box (4) until seated. Refer to
POLYLINE/MULE TAPE SETUP Section A for setup instructions.
