Transportation
The Pull Assist can be left attached to a puller when
transported. Use proper lifting techniques when
transporting puller and Pull Assist as they are heavy.
If storing the Pull Assist by itself, remove the mounting
bar from the bracket before storing. Avoid laying the Pull
Assist on the V-Pulley. Store in a cool, dry place with the
V-Pulley facing up.
