Double-Rope Rigging

Double-rope rigging allows lifting twice the weight of a single-rope rigging by
using a pulley and hook combination that provides a mechanical advantage to
lifting.
NOTE: Double-rope rigging will reduce the lifting height and speed to 1/2 load
capacity for your hoist. Be certain your mounting is rated for the increased weight that
double-rope rigging will allow.
1. Attach the wire rope and thimble to the side of the hoist with the shackle.
2. Install the safety pin and keeper.
3. Unscrew and remove the center bolt of the 8-inch pulley/hook.
4. Remove the wheel.
5. Insert the cable around the wheel.
6. Reinstall the pulley wheel and center bolt. Be sure to secure the bolt with the
safety clip provided. This bolt MUST be secured with a safety clip.
7. Attach the hook to the workload.
WARNING
No wire rope or wire rope sling should ever be installed or used without full knowledge,
consideration, and application of the design factor for the intended use. Failure to comply may
result in equipment damage, bodily injury, or possible death.
WARNING
If the usability or integrity of the wire rope is ever in question, replace the wire rope immediately to
avoid possible personal injury or potential equipment damage.
WARNING
Never use a rope that has become knotted. It is unusable at this point and should be discarded.
